If the customer does have bad credit then it’s up to you to take the chance and offer your services. It is sometimes not so good to turn down customers due to a bad credit report because it can cause you a chance to blow a great business deal. But also Keep in mind that if they already have a problem with paying bills and if you choose to still do business with them you can set up a payment arrangement to have the bill automatically drafted out of the account every pay period. This way the payment is never late. This is sometimes the best route to go rather you are bad with paying bills or not.
While at a glance each of these programs may seem harmless, Dr. Spencer illustrates why he believes America’s economy is declining because of the current system. Dr. Spencer states,” The most useful role of government in the economy is to make sure people –especially companies and businesses-play by the rules.” Anti-trust laws for example provide rules that prevent monopolies in the market. Many of the programs the government enacts stall the natural effects of supply and demand that drive a free market and are in fact monopolies. As is

The much more divisive question is whether the government should preserve the benefits that the companies provide to middle-class borrowers, including lower interest rates, lenient terms and the ability to get a mortgage even when banks are not making other kinds of loans. Douglas J. Elliott, a financial policy fellow at the Brookings Institution, said Congress was being forced for the first time in decades to grapple with the cost of subsidizing middle-class mortgages. The collapse of Fannie and Freddie took with it the pretense that the government could do so at no risk to taxpayers, he
Apart from the fact that they have sent the country and the world into an economic depression, they are still arrogantly taking large bonuses and are incredulous at why the rest of us complain. While I have witnessed firsthand the bullying tactics and red tape of these organisations. My bank makes a mistake and somehow don’t pay my direct debit for my council tax. This error I was blissfully unaware of. And I carry on about my normal life, thinking that my bank and its employees are doing what they are supposed do.
One is the state federal relation--should states continue to charter and supervise banks or would an all-inclusive national banking system be preferable? While monetary economists and central-banking experts are virtually unanimous in their support of a unified national banking system, the political issue is a bitter one of long standing and there is probably no chance of abolition of the existing dual state-federal system short of another major crisis. Under the circumstances, action to abolish the dual state-federal system is not considered here, though this may be a practical requisite of the other changes considered. There would, however, be obvious, important monetary policy advantages in compulsory Federal Reserve membership for all banks, or at least in application of standard Federal Reserve requirements against deposits at all banks. Actually, Federal Reserve membership would be of secondary importance if common reserve requirements were made applicable, and this step could be accomplished for practical purposes within the limits of existing federal powers and without infringing on other aspects of state supervisory jurisdiction.
