In debt for only 5 years after they are out of school??? HAH! I should be so lucky, I owe in student loans what my parents paid for there house and I will probably be paying for the rest of my life. Middle Class Kids get the shaft when it comes to tuition costs!!
and all we do is talk about it or watch overpaid biased morons talk about it on TV. When did the Government(Supposedly By the People For the People) stop caring for its people and start caring more about the rest of the world???
Geeks Unite lets throw another Boston Tea Party and Shake the Idiots running our Country loose If I can live on a balanced Budget with 50% of my income going to taxes than Congress can have a balanced budget with 2.25 TRILLION dollars sucked from the Pockets of the People it is supposed to represent.
Ill pay my fair share but excessive taxation is killing our Country
I work for a DOD Contractor. Everytime I apply for a clearance for a special program access I get a credit check done on me . However this fact was disclosed well in advance of my applying for my first clearance. I didnt need to have good credit to get hired , and I would have balked if I was hired and then told that they were gonna do a credit check on me. This is a matter of privacy IMO, esspecially if the reason is " that people who cannot manage their own finances may not be good employees, or that those with troublesome credit may be more likely to steal from the company" this is a form of discrimination. If the reason is...as for a Government program to verify your addresses and previous employments, and yes financial status to see if you pose a "buyability" risk then fine I knew when I started working in a DOD environment that he microscope would be clicked to a higher magnification. BUT to base your decision to hire someone based on there credit report is discrimination.
