I'm sending this on to everyone in my address book.

I smell shenanigans.

Can't quite put my finger on it, but something about this video doesn't ring true. The rhetoric is a little boilerplate. Her story seems a little too neat and tidy as far as her overall financial stability save for this one Bank of America screw-over.

More then that, her overall demeanor is really really grating. It took a lot of willpower for me to stick with her to her proposed course of action. Seems to me that her overall argument would be better presented in writing as manifesto to be sent via email.

The video reduces her credibility on an abstract level. It seems to me that this could cause two possible results:

1) Further establishing the prejudice that people who want to try and fight the banking/financial cabals in this country are creeping, irritating nutters who do it more out of a desire to erase their own debts.

2) Convincing people who lack the resources to fight BoA et al in court to try defaulting on their debts, allowing for seizures of property, liens and foreclosures.

What do we know of the origins of this video?

Well I made it to about the tenth time she decided to use cursing words then shut it off. There is one thing I always tell my children when it comes to speaking that way....If you want someone to listen to your point of view and not think you aren't able to think of something more intelligent to say DON'T CUSS!
So sorry hunny but the only revolt coming out of this type of display is the one of turning it off. This because she can't get a point across without using that kind of language. You want someone to take you seriously and listen to what you have to say? Do it with proper english in a way that all people can understand and not be offended by.

Good for her star@flag i am so sorry her words upset you but that is the way we talk here in AMERICA unless you are behind your computer all day.And to the idiot who said something about her not having a job i took it that she was laid off and couldnt find work.I am so sick of other countries people commenting on our country.If it was up to me i would ban anyone not from here posting their comment.And another thing at least she is doing SOMETHING unlike you who sit at your computer all day talking # and doing nothing to help.

I'm currently laughing at the puritans here suggesting her argument is invalid because she uses "cuss words".



Grow up FFS!

Get angry!
It's healthy, it's necessary.

Those who are so offended by something as slight as that are the ones who who'll mutter "darn" and "blast it" while they're being robbed of their homes.
Those who don't hold back and aren't so puritan in their attitudes, and can still get their point across, will be the ones forming groups to fight it, and winning.

Like she said, once people have nothing to lose, there's everything to gain by fighting back.

Already started that...

Any suggestions? We're looking.

I know my sister has always had a credit rating of 780 or above - she's worked like a dog and done without her whole life. Her employer has them working one day a week or a bit more and she's hurting bad. She's been keeping kids for extra money but now their parents are all laid off so that is gone too. She told me she was going to go bankrupt soon if something didn't give.

I about fell out of my chair. This is a person that I consider the most trustworthy with money and honest in the entire world.

If she ever didn't have the money, she'd admit it. She's never wasted a dime and made all her pennies scream.

Me? I never agreed to be a number anyway.

haha, I get what you are trying to say, but not all people can understand proper english.

Anyway, she's right you guys, if you really want this movement to take off, it needs to appeal to everyone and be able to be shown to anyone, at work, or anywhere. If it's vile and filled with all sorts of bad language, many people will just do what she did, and turn it off. I'd suggest a new spokeperson.

And if you ever do get off the ground, I have enough debt that I will be a senior member of the elite squad when I join. So good luck, and godspeed.
