Hence the Tea Party movement. Too bad that was hijacked by hannity and Beck et al. In the beggining it was bipartisan and would have been effective.

I supported the movement but to be honest the best way is to simplify your life,stop buying into the failed society(easy credit buy now pay later) and be free....

People need to stop being frightened all the time...

Scared they might have a bad FICO score.

Scared they might not be able to buy a new car.

Scared they won't have cheap health insurance.

In the end,you still die.

good points. I just paid off a credit card that had a balance for like 10 years. I keep checking my fico score to see if it changed.
but in the end my FICO score does not mean sh**!.
Especially after I take over the world.

No need to take over the world,just buy yourself a small part.

And yes,your FICO means nothing....except to those so afraid of life.

I used to care but then realised it was pointless,the entire system is stacked against you.

Cash is still accepted and it brings discounts I have discovered....
