CLOSURE: More pain for no gain

Frontier is closing its call center here laying off some 100 employees aged 55 and older so they can open up a less costly operation in South Carolina.

Here’s the rest of the story. As a community, we are now looking at 100 more foreclosures coming down the pike accompanied by who knows how many bankruptcies.

That’s 100 more families aged 55 and older who will be living in their cars and living off of food stamps while they hustle each other to buy insurance or sell the latest multi-level marketing scam.

Idaho, and North Idaho in particular, is red meat Republican. Listening to the ideological hacks who jam vapid ideas into our minds, one would come to believe that these 100 people bought more house than they could afford, bought more education than they could afford, and now have to live off unemployment and food stamps. Worthless bums all. They are the problem.

Don’t think for a moment the Democrats are any better. They are equally as vapid and equally as culpable for the destruction of the country. When you take a critical look at what really happened, you are left with no other conclusion than this was a planned take down 25 years in the making.

Mitt for Brains or JoeBama. Not much of a choice.

Wake up. The true villains are the Wall Street banks and their bought and paid for whores we send to Washington.

The solution is monetary reform. Money as debt doesn’t work.
