What I admire and am now a part of is the fact that movies like Maxed Out, the diligence of Professor Warren and others are now turning our collective attention and focus to the matter. There is strength in doing this in numbers.

I am sick of the way these privte lenders and such ruin people's lives and refuse to work with you. They tell you one thing and then 'because they can' they change the agreements all around til you are the loser and your credit is ruined, etc. It's one thing to owe money BUT some threw honor and integrity out the window when they got this '... See Morepower' of lending and all. There is NO help for anyone but those who hold the common people's financial status in their very hands. NO bail outs for those who actually may need it. Makes one wonder what is actually going on in these companies and those who give them the power to do what they do- another way to control, own the people is what it looks like.

Something short of bank obliteration has to occur or be so imminent, and even then, I don't think the banks will consider, let alone say, "Sorry." As long as they feel we need them or are addicted to their high-priced services, they're unrepentant!
