Ok - I have been thinking alot about all the bailout money banks have gotten. Then today, I hear on the radio an advertisement for you to call in and settle your credit card debt for alot less than you owe, because these banks have recieved subsidies from the government.
So the wheels start clicking in my head, smoke rolls and there is a burnt smell. Yet a question forms....
Lets say you have 20k in CC debt. Your taxes - between payroll, income etc etc adds up to 10k for the year. Thats money thats come out of your pocket that went to the government. So why shouldn't you get that same amount OFF your CC bill, because ultimately thats where it ended up.
Seems like someone would realized they paid their CC bill through the government and demand the debt be reduced or negated due to that.
Just a thought.....
