So the other day I was checking to see what football
game was being televised. Here in America we just
wrapped up the American college football bowl game
season. since Decmber 19th there has been at least one
game a day. I noticed the featured game of the day was
the GMAC bowl. Sponsored by a company who we as
taxpayers had to pay billions of dollars to keep from
floundering just a few months ago. Should they be using
some of that money to sponsor a football game? That's
the question I asked my friend Rick who informed me he
had read that in the daily fish wrapper local newspaper.
Sure enough an article by an man named Steffi started with
the same question I asked except he opened with the big
championship game which was being sponsored by one
of the banks we bailed out. Actually those scums who have
yet to pay us taxpayers back the billions were sponsoring
several games. They just took the word bank of the title
and called it by the company name. I can understand the
need to advertise to drum up clients but they are targeting
niave college kids for "personal loans". Above and beyond
the student loans most already have. Also the law now
protects them from giving you any information about how
much money your kid has borrowed. I might add at up to
29% interest. I talked with one person who felt they had
an outstanding relationship with their kid. Could talk about
anything. They were shocked to find out their little 17
year old daughter had a credit card bill over $20k. [Personally,
I would notice if my kid came home with twenty thousand
dollars worth of goods.] The point is [and Mr. Steffi's insightful
article points it out better than I] that it is flat out wrong what
these bankers are doing. Nothing is getting turned around and
they are playing us all for suckers. The games bank sponsor
television commercial ask "What's in your wallet?" Obvious
to me, their hands.
