Today in the WSJ(Wall Street Journal) it said that students that came out of law school expected to make more than $100,000 a year to pay for what has to be at least $120,000 in tuition per student(FL Coastal in Jacksonville charges about $20,000 per semester which times 6 is 120k). The story was about how schools had inflated students expectations in an effort to charge more tuition. Schools said that more than 86% of students would have a job after they got out of school which sounds like 86% get 100k after school and reported this as fact. This is untrue so people are suing the schools.
In a message to God an angel said that in their prayers all the poor people found out how rich the rich people were who could afford to hire these people without some sort of legal insurance and cried out in unison, FK YOU!
Coincidentally, the Devil sent a message saying that insurance companies would join policymakers(aka. congressmen, they do love to chg their names don't they), to fund a national legal care bill that would provide legal help to people that perhaps spoke a different language for some reason.
Also in a rare appearance, THOR threw his hammer down and said he would like to read where it says that the FL DUI law intends for everyone to do community service which was the claim of the District Attorney at a certain court proceeding that will remain unspecified.
Also, it is perhaps a bit much to ask that the WSJ speak proper English when they are writing their stories. But since they are probably used to addressing financial types, perhaps it is NOT too much to ask.
Example in today's paper: "A dog was used to secure financial papers before a budget was presented to India's parliament on Friday."
You know I am all for making English the national language of the nation in an effort to welcome everyone to the simplicity that should be everyday commerce between benign parties. I am all against people changing the contract, which people do perhaps when they bring you a receipt with one too many beers on it, or charge you $1100.00 for fixing a passenger window, like my dad was charged yesterday at a Cadillac dealer, but one thing that is difficult to agree on is how smart should you be to be allowed to do business.
We have quite a bit of foreign workers working here who because they don't understand English, may not understand what usury laws are. And since they are spending money that is not technically theirs, why not withhold telling them that their 0% $10,000 loan will rise to 13,000 a year later with all interest due if they go past due once which btw raises their rate to 50% or whatever cuz they are a bad risk which is actually another way of saying "learn English fool". My dad is a national citizen but he is 70+ years old and speaks Spanish first, English second. He is very intelligent but is perhaps too understanding when someone says we can also clean out your fuel injection which hasn't been done a long time according to our computer. They don't take into account that maybe had that done somewhere else or test to see if it needs it and of course what they didn't mention was $70/hour rate of labor. REALLY? I mean what kind of training does it take to work on a car? I realize it's not exactly customer service simplicity and stuff but man, where are these people that can afford that? You basically hired a lawyer. Lessee, lawyer + school bills = lawyer pay of 120/hr, now take away 50/hr spent paying back school bills = same pay as Cadillac mechanic... so all lawyers should go work at the Cadillac dealer and omg no banks, no schools, and no 3 years of wasting your time studying stupid shit.
Ruf!
Anyway, my point is that not only do we need to speak only one language but we need to speak it so that a 6th grader can understand. Understanding is the goal people and if I make something hard to understand then I have atttacked you, usually without provocation, and if this is being allowed then it needs to stop.
Now I am not citing anyone with crimes of course but I am pointing out that mean people suck!
I still remember one guy about 20 years ago calling the credit card saying that he wanted his VISA card to say DR in the front of his name. It was sort of a problem for us cuz then his name would not come up alphabetically in our sorter but we accomodated him and I thought wow must be nice to be a doctor. A few years later I got a different guy complaining about his car repair he charged and that he wanted to dispute it but after many car repair people got tired of getting their payment yanked out by a dispute, another procedure was put in place which not many people know about. You have to take your car to another mechanic and have them do the repair and say that the previous mechanic did it incorrectly in a statement you send in to the credit card to dispute it. You can imagine how many mechanics are willing to do this and why suddenly all disputes regarding car repairs came to a halt.
Anyway, this doctor after me telling him we would send him materials to fill out and the work he would need to get his money back for a faulty reapir or whatever at the end of the call he says, "Yeah, and remove that DR from the front of my name..."
It's a small wonder there is no cure for cancer...
