Evil Landlord On Credit

Here is one of the most evil things about the apartment business.
Tenants almost never borrow from banks to pay their rent!

So when other businesses suffer from tight credit, the auto industry or the real estate industry (homebuilders) or even people who sell big ticket items where people borrow the money, etc.
as I was saying these people suffer terribly!!
but evil landlord does just fine.

People just don't usually borrow money to pay the rent!
And I would say that having a business which does not goose the credit system is probably UNAMERICAN! In order for the system to work everyone must always be in debt as much as possible! That is where the growth comes from and the employment and everything
absolutely everything
without credit we would all be instantly dead!

Shame on the evil landlords! They are the most heartless beings in all creation!

This Is America-lyrics

My wife bought some peppermints
and she shared them with me

We got on our bicycles
and we rode down the the sea

I looked back at the mountains
I looked down at my feet

I said, "THIS IS AMERICA,
A GREAT PLACE TO EAT!"

We rode to the food court
We surveyed the scene

All kinds of delicious
from sushi to baked beans

My eyes got all misty
My heart swelled with pride

I said, "THIS IS AMERICA!"
and I fell down and cried

The World Is Good

I notice a thread running through of being anti-this and anti-that
people hate
they hate government
they hate business
they hate the poor

everything is a crisis
we always need a revolution
something is always wrong

But is that the truth?

Imagine no government, no business, no police, no property...
what would that really get you?

Things are pretty good now just the way they are
Really!

Sure, we could do better, but at a cost
it is all about priorities
where should the attention go
where should the attention go?

I like what the government does, for the most part,
free schools!
roads!
police!
fire department!
help for those that cannot care for themselves!
parks!
rules of the game!

good stuff
stuff we need

Let's hear it for the government! It serves us well.

Souled Out

"he's sold out he's lost his soul".

souled out at the end of time on a beach with gulls

long ideas
not short ones

that take you all the way
around the obstacles to being here now

Stuff That Accumulates

Computers are the coat-hangers of the 21st century.

Lint

dust mites in your mattress

old shoes

pens and writing implements

automobiles- in the world there are more automobiles all the time

paperback books

DVDs

coat hangers in the closet

NEW HIGHS?

Stock market has been recovering lately.
But the bears are always on the prowl,

Better to be an optimist
"Don't sell America short!"

recent high on S&P 500 was 1,371, today touching 1,351, off 1.3% from the high
So a new high could come soon, very soon

Dow 30 is off 1.3% from recent high

Dow high was 12,876

Of course there is still a ways to go to attain the prerecession highs.
Which brings me to a point

I don't believe we had a recession.
It is all statistics. It is all politics. It is all propaganda.
I see nothing but prosperity.
I see nothing but gradually increasing wealth and health and productivity.
It is so good, but when anybody loses a dime they scream like bloody hell!

The recession was a myth. It never happened.
