Perfect time for conservative leaders to come forward and show a new generation that conservatism stands against corporate welfare too.
Liberals love the “Theory of Evolution”, ie “Survival of the Fittest, Law of the Jungle.” These companies should die, because of their mismanagement and /or infection by union thugs. A new and more sustainable species will fill the niche, as nature abhors a vacuum. The Dems are going against nature and capitalism..........
This is all so bizarre! Your company gets kicked down on limits, etc, while AMX gave a green light on a frivolous purchase I asked them to up my limit for on one of my 3 accounts! (all personal accounts)
AmEx wants to become a bank. What is stopping them? Anybody can be a bank in America. For $1 billion I might consider becoming a bank. Or not.
Well if so, then why did the execs just say they weren’t AIG. They didn’t when asked directly. They put up fake signs to make it LOOK like another company but it was AIG.
As for ideas, I do have ideas. I think we need to quit sitting on our hind ends. I really believe one of our greatest failings is that we are no longer community oriented. Everyone just hangs out in their own cave so-to-speak.
I’d love to see a grassroots movement take root. Why should lefties have all the fun with these protest movements? Their ideas suck anyway. We should organize in our own states and not just write letters but show up on these bozos doorstops. We have congressmen and women and senators. We have state reps as well. I think we should start showing UP in little groups and ask for ANSWERS.
I’d love to meet on the White House lawn. Do you have any ideas?
Really, how else is any business going to compete against its socialized & subsidized competitors? Bailouts for all~!
Same thing happened to one of my clients. He has exemplary credit, always pays his bills on time, and runs his business through short-term purchases of stock, inventory, payroll, etc.
Three weeks ago, out of the blue, they dropped thrre of his credit lines from the $50,000 range to the $8,000 range.
They said it had nothing to do with him, they were just down-valuing everything.
Thank goondess he has other lines of credit elsewhere that he uses, else he would have hurt a lot of his vendors (like me!) with no available credit!

I am so upset I am cancelling an AMEX Gold I have had since 70. Tell the jerks you will never do business with them.
I’m not going to be able to use my account anymore...they denied my Amazon charge, for Pete’s sake, on an account that was always paid in full every month, and had no limit. There was apparently no reason for it, either, since I barely use that card. Their name is MUD at my house.
