But this is done almost as a matter of routine in the financial services industry, where the attitude after the inevitable pileup would be that that family was dumb for getting into the car in the first place. Caveat emptor, dude!"

About Me
- LanceM
- I am a person who was raised as a full-fledged "Republican"... in fact, I named my middle son (now age 29) 'Reagan'. But, within 3 years of that I began to wake up to the misrepresentations then lies and later the criminal behavior of "my" party. Eventually, I felt I had to do something to help. These 'blogs' are that attempt.
