Edited on Wed Apr-15-09 02:57 PM by flyarm
i just saw the price of a medium bottle yesterday..over $9. bucks a bottle..so that $13. bucks a week isn't going far..but i can assure you..my former neighbor who had a 350,000 dollar pool isn't too upset you are thrilled over your pitance..while his ass was bailed out as a top exec at UBS..no sirree..he is now the proud owner of over a $4 million dollar home on a river..and his new pool is even more expensive..he is damn thrilled your tax bucks paid off his failures!!!!!!!!!

And don't bother looking at your 401K..your little tax thrill won't come close to paying off what you have lost..

Oh and when my former neighbor is sitting in his multi million $$$ beach house ( his second house) and sitting dockside on his Yacht..he won't be thinking about your tax thrill..he is laughing all the way to the bank ..on your money!
Oh and your kids money and your grand kids money ..even those unborn yet!!

And PS ..don't wait for the invitation to a weekend barby at his mansion..the invitiation is not in the mail!!

but many in this country are getting other things in the mail..like pink slips and forclosures..

U.S. FORECLOSURE INDEX: Foreclosures Soar in March, Up 44 Percent Over February’s High
Source: Business Wire

Lenders End Moratoria, Opening Flood of Foreclosures; Re-Defaults and Job Losses Also Take Their Toll

SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Completed foreclosures hit another monthly record in March as 175,199 homes were lost to foreclosure, up 44 percent from February’s record high, according to the latest U.S. Foreclosure Index released today by ForeclosureS.com, a leading real estate information provider.

The number of foreclosed properties was up dramatically from 121,756 in February. Nearly 370,000 properties have been repossessed by lenders so far this year – 18.3 of every 1,000 households – up more than 38 percent from 266,986 in the fourth quarter of 2008, the U.S. Foreclosure Index shows, and up 76 percent from 210,280 in the first quarter of 2008.

The first-quarter 2009 total is the highest quarterly total of completed foreclosures since the foreclosure crisis began. Pre-foreclosure filings – filings that could lead up to a completed foreclosure – also reached their highest quarterly level, topping 600,000 for the first time since the foreclosure crisis began.

While February and March headlines boasted of government efforts to stop foreclosures, in fact March was the first month when major government-backed lenders – including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac – lifted moratoria on many properties in the first week of March. Only properties eligible for modification under the Obama administration’s plan were covered by continuing foreclosure moratoria, according to statements by the two agencies.

pss..do spend that $13-17 bucks a week wisely...but I assure you it will not do a fucking thing to help the people losing their homes and jobs nationwide..and it won't do a fucking thing to open all the stores and businesses closing daily in my neck of the woods..when i see those closures..i cry for all the people who used to work there..and now won't get that fucking $13 bucks a week!

Oh and about that 2 million people Obama said his tax cuts will help..well since January over 2 million lost their jobs..so it won't help them a fucking bit!
