The upcoming week could possibly be the most traumatic of our lives

If credit freezes solid, all credit lines, bank or no bank, will be going C.O.D.. We're starting to see this in business to business transactions, shipping, etc...

A couple of cases in point:

1. My uncle owns a wood trim supply shop. He sells to wood trim installers. These installers have lines of credit with him. Last week, 3 installers went out of business and won't be paying my uncle back for debts against their credit line. My uncle now has to assume an incredible amount of risk with his other vendors. He himself will lose everything if he keeps getting stuck with the tab. He needs more assurance of payment, or he can not ship the materials.

2. My sister-in-law is the head chef at a successful restaurant. Her beverage vendor has shut off supplies to the restaurant until they receive check in hand, and the check cashes. Her restaurant has always paid in their history of being in business. She also has a cheese vendor, meat vendor, wine vendor, produce vendor and other creditors that allows her restaurant to be in business.

This affects all businesses. Grocery supply chains, fuel supply chains, auto supply chains, etc.... No one goes untouched on something like this.

Look for these credit lines to lock down this week. Last week was crazy in the markets, but this week will hit home.....

You want to know what the winning formula to win this presidency

If one of the IDIOTS Mcbomba, came out today and said, I WILL GIVE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ONE YEAR SABATICAL ON INCOME TAXES....

In all honesty it would not cost the govt a dime, because the paper is not real, and the debt is not real. MAN O MAN, and after a year of no income tax, do you think that Americans are going to want to pay it later?

HELL NOO

Freedom may be worth searching for.

Remember, Dont battle the govt with guns(ALONE), Beat them in court, in state legislature, or hire Ron Paul for president.

My

suppliers have been shutting me off periodicaly, until they get their checks. Some of my credit is off the board forever.

you could be very right!

you could be very right! PLEASE READ THIS!

I honestly think they are screwed.

There isn't a plan or package they can come up with, or enough paper to print the amount of money on that would be needed, that will fix the mess they have created. "The eagle has landed" (after hitting a plate glass window).

I hope your wrong...

but I know you are right......how far can this go???

what is the intrinsic value of

paper?

Pre-wipe is only as good as mulch, keeping weeds from coming up.

Post-wipe is probably worth more. Preventing weeds from coming up, and also promoting vigorous plant and shrub growth due to the additional fertilizer content. Use your fiat money wisely.

I didn't notice anybody in a panic mode, though.

as usual, people don't know what is going on

How could a credit freeze affect me? They just don't get it. If it freezes hard this week (G7 better come out with some out-of-the-box shat before the markets open worldwide Monday, except here - holiday). Tanky, tanky, credit freezy, freezy....

Burgers on credit

It blows me away to see a line of people at Burger King buying their Woppers on credit cards. One other person and myself used cash in that line. Burgers on credit what a concept, I wounder if that will be affected next week?

Dude. Could be just a debit card not necessarily credit.

Or a rewards card

For quite some time, I have used a visa that rewards me Alaska Airlines miles for every dollar spent. I pay the balance every month, so I am not going into debt, but I get free airline tickets out of it. So yeah, you might have seen me putting a burger on a visa and thought "WTF?", but I was actually just getting a free trip to Mexico out of the deal (combined with other purchases, over the course of a year)....

There's still a transaction

There's still a transaction fee charged to the retailer though. Plastic sucks no matter how you slice it (at least until they come up with a card that will let you redeem gold and silver from an ATM).

Except that, like all costs, the transaction fee is charged to the customer. You don't seriously think the prices you pay don't have that fee built-in, do you?

The article stated that the Carlyle Group was one of the investors whose stock in the company would be wiped out. Interesting... Carlyle Group, if I'm remembering correctly, is the Bush family's money manager (I think).

Went to Costco this morning

I had never seen it less busy. I thought for sure it would be slammed with people stocking up because of the upcoming shortages...but then I remembered that most people rely on network news for information, and that the majority of them believe that government will save them.

I work at a pizza shop and we are not having any of these problems. Backdoor prices are rising at unprecedented rates though.
