I had the unnfortunate learning yesterday about how far some businesses in
the US will go to get more geld (money)!  I had a different company supply
me with another oxygen Concentrator.  (I have to use supplemental O2.
As it was, my concentrator that I got from A___a Home Healthcare a year
and a half ago quit flat.  This bothered me.  In trying to get help from
this company, I was met with all sorts of charges to tend to my unit. Like
$45.00 just to look at it.  $75.00 to take it in to teest it out.  Then
another expected outlay of $300.00 to get the  thing fixed.  This and no
loaner while they fixed my own unit.  Then they laid on me a charge of
$476.00 as rental on another unit, 1st & last months payable in advance. 
About $900.00 just to work with them.
SOOOoooo.  I got another company.  These were much better people to work
with.  They were the fifth company I dealt with.  So out they come with a
technician.  Takes one look and said, "You bought this 18 months ago? 
This thing has been out of manufacture for 3 1/2 years at least.
Then I caught on.  The original company, asked 3 grand for the machine and
the insurance company talked them down to $1,900.00!  In checking further,
that company had taken a rental unit out, patched it together and re-sold
it as new!  The unit I now have costs $865.00 retail.
So.  Essentially, as a disabled person, I had an egregious company attempt
to extort more money because I am essentially helpless.
Slavery?  At least that was honest slavery where they knew for sure what
the score was and they did have alternatives.  These days, I see a
modified form of slavery which legally bilks the disabled, seniors, and
especially the uninformed out of billions of dollars.
Consider our own little B of A that would charge you for the very air you
breathed in their banks!  These guys will take advantage, even when you
can prove your balance, by "returning NSF" checks each day until they hit
their own tolerance level.  I checked once and found that the payee on one
check had been paid, the check never returned, but the bank charged NSF
charges multiple times.  And a lot other money people do the same thing!
It was known that Vince Foster who was "Arkancided", made secret or covert
trips to Switzerland Banks every month.  Now we have a useless trip to
Africa and another to Central America.
Now, the IRS and other auditors are looking for billions of dollars worth
of equipment that the DOD and other agencies are missing!  They are even
missing 2 patrol boats of all things.  And to, a lot of weapons are
missing.
After 4 1/2 million in AK-47s were caught being smuggled into the US
through Los Angeles, with the dis-Honorable John Huang conducting the
chorus, now we find Schlik making out a bill to bar the importation of
"assault weapons"!
Slavery??????  I wonder if when you drive between 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
and foreign banks, you might hear the slight sound of suction as money is
drawn off and shipped out.  8-)  Heaven knows there must be a bunch of
similar sounds around there!
OK.  I am very pproud of being an American and my family has sacrificed
their lives to the max for her.  Even though we have a measure of
dimenishing freedom and / or Liberty, the greedos pull so much money out
of us that we are all at risk of losing our futures.  Many, many people
live from pay check to pay check.  Just barely eating, clothing and
sheltering themselves.
With the slavery of the 19th century, that's just what they got!!!! But,
with the hated "Massa they knew what was going down next week, next month
or next year!  Theere must be an underground railway for an American to
escape being taken advantage of! How bout a NAAsP  National Assoc 4 th
advancmnt of scr__d people. Ya know, as the man said, "I'm gettin mad as
hell and ......."!
Shalom & Maranatha
