I am disgusted! There is no point to destroying things. I can understand impulsive outbursts, but this is manipulated, planned destruction. What do these people learn growing up? I remember my college days, and watched people from “good” households, just beat the crap out of places. Like all of a sudden, released from their parents care, it was okay to do so. I don’t get it. Immature, and wasteful.

Attitude of entitlement. I would bet you the guy with 20% down and a good credit score would hardly take to destroying a property. He/she would have taken the time to save the money and make the right decision regarding purchase, and would have less chance of foreclosure. The banks gave loans to folks like this, I guess it can be expected. Kind of a ghetto mentality.

I don’t wish for a recession. However, I must agree with you–consumption is out of control. It is really sad. I remember the clearing of a some wild land in Ohio, for a gigantic mall. All the little rabbits and other wildlife were seen roaming looking for food and where to be. They were constantly getting run over. In SD, for a time, there were lots of coyotes coming up from the canyon looking for food. I felt really sad, but I knew better than feeding wildlife, creates dependency. I have seen the Redwoods in Northern CA just disappear over time. They leave some by the side of the road, so you don’t know that they have cut them down to nothing behind the road. It is really sad.

I hate when whales wash up on our beaches. Sometimes they are hurt or indirectly poisoned by the dirty waters. The Navy uses sonar which destroys dolphins. I was at Mission Bay this summer jetskiing (which goes against my grain so I was being a hypocrite and felt bad the whole time) and saw a sea lion on a buoy with something around its neck. It was gradually being strangled to death. I had my friend get the cell phone out and I called Sea World. I doubt that anything happenned. It took all of me to be a good sport and not cry and ruin the day. But, I cried later when I got home.

Yes, the planet won’t be able to take much more. I think living conservatively is better for us all. Oh, and I can’t stand Hummers.

This reminds me of a friend of mine. He and his partner bought a brand new house about 7 years ago. They bought with no money down, but got a fixed rate. They have a spending problem, and have re-financed 3X since the purchase. They are always buying things….large screen TVs, Honda Acura, and even remodeled their kitchen! (Wow is that necessary in a new house?) For 2 of their re-fi’s, they borrowed a significant amount of change from me–though, my friend tells me I am a “ghetto dweller” as I live in North Park, and drive an older car. They did pay me back, but I told them that was my LAST time loaning them money.

Anyway, the last re-fi they did on an ARM and it adjusts in March. My friend may lose his job in February. They already have a roommate, and cannot increase her rent anymore. His thought is, either the bank does a re-fi at a fixed rate, or they can have the house. His belief is that in today’s market, the bank will work with them. A couple of months ago, he pulled all his retirement money to pay off CC bills. So, now who is going to support people like this when retirement comes around?

If the bank does not work with them, they will bail and let the bank have the house. I have no doubt that they will continue to spend like crazy, as I have known them 15 years and this is what they do. I don’t wish him any ill will, as he is my best friend, and if the bank wants to take the loss, then that is on the bank. However, it really irks me.

Partypup, Arraya, I am with you–what a sad state of affairs.

The train has left the station, and the world is on the brink of chaos, despair and death. Anyone remember the movie “Soylent Green” with Charlton Heston?

Many people don’t seem to pay attention and don’t seem to care. Many people are just too busy trying to meet basic needs, so that there is not much left over to worry about the greater good. Many others have been dumbed down by the media and have lost any critical thinking abilities. They just don’t know any better or prefer to wear the rose colored glasses, because otherwise, they might have to do something.

Aaaah….well…that was a bit off task. Ron Paul seems okay, but it could be that folks are just grasping at straws. Not crazy for Hilary or Obama either. The next election is going to be a tough one.
