Maxed Out on Showtime

[Enorah]

When one is reacting from a place of trauma or loss or desperation often logic can not and does not apply.

It is not stupidity or laziness.

I have felt desperate in my life and I made choices that could have been construed by others at the time as stupid (and were, in fact). For me, it was simply a matter of survival. I believed I had no other choice.

For those of you who have not felt desperate and do not know what it is to be in that situation, why not just be grateful.

For those of you who have and are now bitter, why not let it go?

I see, so people who use credit unwisely are just misunderstood and need a hug?

I can imagine the look of desperation on the faces of those charging all the clothes, dinners and flat screen tv’s on their credit cards.

We’re not bitter. It is very simple. We know that the responsible tax payers are being lined up to shoulder this upcoming burden. This includes people on fixed income. All these stories of the ‘poor people’ are just trying to line everything up to make it seem acceptable. The only problem is that if people who are in dire straights now, don’t learn from their mistakes, it will only be repeated if they are bailed out.

I am tired of bailing out an overspending congress.. and now irresponsible speculators, homebuyers, high paid corporate investment directors and companies.

“It is lack of love of self and others that leads to destruction.

“bad” decisions are always born out of trauma or lack of emotional understanding (there is knowing better and then there is knowing better on an emotional level).”

Enorah, I agree that we all should have more compassion in life for those who are unable to obtain the basic needs in life or have been struck by misfortune.

I do not however agree that everyone makes choices because they lack love of themselves or that their bad decisions are always born of trauma. I know plenty of people who are flat out spoiled who came from great loving families but got spoiled rotten. They love themselves so much they are narcissistic. They feel “entitled”. They are selfish. There are people who will always take more than their fair share. There are those are are conniving and will look to work the system. There is a right and wrong. Murder is wrong. Stealing is wrong. Ultimately, spending money on credit or borrowing, with the intention of never paying it back when that is what you’ve agreed to, is tantamount to stealing.
