There appears to be a new trend on business, utility and government sites that allow you to pay your bill online - that is when entering payment information you, on some sites are not allowed to select the date you wish the payment to be made! Most sites would allow you to select a date up to your current billing due day to have your payment processed. Many sites are not allowing this any longer and your payment is processed sometime after you enter your payment information and submit it. Where is the convienence in that? So if you want to make your payment on time and you are somehow engaged on the day you would normally make payment you could be late in making that payment. Things that happen to all of us like cars breaking down, dental emergencies, kids stuff(!) the mishaps in life are endless. These sites and businesses will expect you to pay perhaps weeks in advance of your due dates, just because they can!

“What the people want is very simple. They want an America as good as its promise.”, this a statement from Barbara Jordan. Ms. Jordan was a lawyer, educator, politician and exceptional human being from Texas.
There is little if nothing else that need be said when you take the context of this statement. No quandry over if you question the meaning of "what is, is" or the bald faced lies of the current adminstration as well as past and present elected representative. ("his remark was not meant to be a factural statement", concerning Jon Kyle of AZ and his televised statement regarding planned parenthood.)
Is it that difficult for people, especially those in office to make good on their own rehtoric?

People are complete and utter baffoons (not unlike the President). They are selfish, ignorant morons - and yet the human race continues to persist. That may be a bygone thing the way things have been going...
What is wanted and what is warranted are two different animals that both the public and political (****es) leaders have a very difficult time with understanding. Ask yourself, "what has changed" since the onslaught of this terrible plauge that has besieged the world? Therein lies your anwser.

Check out this idea, it is one in which a way forward in terms of changing attitudes and morays about how we might want to behave in a civilized, democratic society.. NOT! So far the Occupy Money Cooperative is nothing but a slightly lower fee charging, pre-paid debit card. Really, that is the best that you ****ing "bankers" could come up with?
You've taken away (you and the colluding governemtns) our ability to earn from savings and forced everyone into the market. There are no savings accounts that earn even a modestly reasonable rate because you (and the colluding governments) have taken that away from the 99%. That's why people hate ****ing bankers and the greedy, crooked, ****ing financial industry!
But let's not forget our lying, guttless, corrupt government representatives. They went willingly along with the agenda to take away a safe, albeit modest way to earn on the money we manage to sock away as opposed to being forced to gamble it in the marketplace. **** you too!
