>>It's odd that the USA constitution makes it illegal to be alive = people are not allowed to work for less than the minimum pay rate and if the person needs the work to stay alive then they are legally excluded from life.<<

Nope, the USA has outlawed hunger. If you can't afford to eat, the government will stuff you full of free food! :O)

>>The problem is not so much that there is a credit crunch as that those who want to borrow don't have collateral to offer, or think they can borrow for a very low interest rate.

Nothing in writing, it's all "he said she said."
