First off, kudos to those that voted for this – you did the right thing in the face of intense lobbying. You should all feel good about voting for this.
Second, to the Republicans bending over for a business interest:
Does this mean you support the poor selling a spare kidney of they need that as a borrowing option? Or for poor women to engage in prostitution – again a borrowing option?
But God forbid she sell or donate her eggs! Or rent out her uterus!
It’s sometimes hard to tell where they draw the line on free enterprise.
So I don’t know too much about it, or what kind of regulation it is imposing…
But I would never go to those places. And I tell everyone I know who is considering that option to be very careful.
If you can play by their rules, it can be helpful. But if you can’t, you get screwed in a major way.
Can’t see that being much of a vote-getting rallying cry in November ’08.
patron saint of predatory lenders. What a piece of work.
These loans must target the literate and the blind.
The leechs in the legislature find 1000 way to tax me… hell take it all! I give up time to be a ward of the state.
If you give up, then I have to pay even more………
Hell, on second thought, maybe I’ll join you.
I could use some time away from the same shit hole job I’ve had since 1984. I could stand to let someone else pay my way for awhile…. :)~~~~~
It might be educational for you to realize that the state actually gives out very little per person.
Colorado required voter approval for (1) tax increases, (2) revenue increases (one such increase was recently approved by voters), and (3) increased debt obligations that would unbalance the budget, at both the state level and the local level (although many local governments have voted to “debruce” and eliminate restriction number (2) above).
economy, no taxes brother!
is not from Andrew Oh-Willeke who posts at Colorado Pols as “ohwilleke” despite the fact that I have a long standing blog (with an unfinished science fiction novel on it) entitled “Wash Park Poet” in addition to my “Wash Park Prophet” blog which receives heavier traffic.
I personally would prefer it if the person using that handle refrained from using the WashParkPoet descriptor in the future to avoid confusion, but I am not threatening any form of legal action, nor do I intend to bring it up with the Colorado Pols proprietors, as I have better ways to spend my time, if the person posting in this way is really obstinant about the matter.
the same could be said for both Iraq and Afghanistan.
