I don't quite get the whole treating like a criminal heading for this topic. Doesn't exactly fit, whatsoever. Only one point was there a 'treating like a criminal' and that was with cross stitching...lol. I don't really understand the second half of your comment. But people are treated like EVERYONE is a shoplifter. Therefore you can no longer go to one store and pick up your photos, your medicine, your flowers and your other shopping and go up to a check lane and pay for your stuff in one transaction. They think that if you pick up your meds, you will walk out without paying. If you pick up your photos, you will walk out without paying... And so on. They have decided that anyone with a low credit score, regardless of what might have triggered their situation, will automatically steal from the company, take credit card numbers, and so on. Just because of a low score. |

Just because of a low score. It is common sense, more like it and big liability. Do you have any clue how much stuff gets jacked from Wal-mart and Target and stores like it? I know people who work at Wal-mart who have seen the loss reports, the figures are huge. Of course they are going to make you pay for it at that counter. It will more likely ensure that person is who he say it is and of course so those people won't simply walk out without paying. It's called a good business plan, because guess what, people do shoplift, especially in big stores like that. I am sure there are also federal and state laws for them to have to force people to pay for drugs at the pharmacy and not up front. Just think you are getting way too over stressed over such a little thing. Maybe its a spoiled brat syndrome that this country is dealing with. Ask older folks, they are always *****ing about how spoiled our country is nowadays. Your other assumptions made on credit score and so forth are simply not backed up as well. You are going to ***** at a company that is protecting your own welfare should an accident occur? You are going to ***** at a company that is going to lend you money you don't have? They are VERY trusting to ensure you with such money and that you will be able to cover it or pay for the shield it provides you. You sound like a person that would run a $10k+ credit card debt and then blame it on the lender for allowing you to be an idiot. |

What does my credit score have to do with anything when it comes to deciding whether or not I'm a good Nurse or Metal Fabricator? People do have to take responsibility for knowing how Compound interest works and what that can do to you in a hurry, but lets be honest, our lending industry hasn't done themselves any favors... But where did the Federal reserve run to the rescue of? Was it to do whatever it took to make sure the dollar was strong? Or was it to further devalue the already flacid currency by printing up billions in unbacked currency, diluting the market, and then loaning it to a member bank of the cartel to "purchase" another member bank of the cartel? Care to get into the warrantless wiretapping of yet another example of everyone being treated as the bad guy? |

I tend to agree with sailor here. I don't feel like I'm treated as a criminal because I do have choices. if I don't like it...I'll go somewhere else. criminals can't do that
