Shultz is a blood sucker of the worst kind.. Here is Why....

[Stuart G]

She represents some of the very worst aspects of humanity...blood suckers...sucks the blood from very poor.
CAN YOU IMAGINE............300 PERCENT INTEREST ON SHORT TERM LOANS????????

__________________________________________________________________________________________
Yesterday's rate (3/10/16). on a 3 month note from the U.S. Treasury was,are you ready,..................0026%........yes that is correct.....

1/4 of one percent on a 3 month loan....the interest that U.S.gov pays..to lenders who will lend it money for 3 months....
So..poor people, who need a payday loan, from a payday loan company, ....backed by Shultz.......pay 1200 times the going rate the U.S. Government gives on similar loans.................
....think about it......1200 times the going rate the U.S.gives to banks and others..on short term loans............................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


sidenote...supporting that rate, in my honest opinion, makes the oil companies, pharmaceutical companies, and even drug dealers on the street, ..........................look benevolent and kind with their business methods.

1. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz perfectly embodies what the Democratic Party has become -

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This poster is clearly attacking the party this page supports by claiming it is the same as the GOP. This is clearly against the most basic DU rules.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Mar 11, 2016, 08:40 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: It's become fashionable to attack the Democratic Party on this site. But in my view, it has gone too far. Time to stop this bullshit.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Just voicing his disappointment of the party - if we hide all criticism we'll never improve
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is an opinion. They are allowed on DU. Supporting Republicans by stating you are going to vote for a Republican is not allowed. Comparing the ideas of a Democrat to a Republican is allowed.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The alert on this is a waste of our time.

Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The truth hurts. Perhaps it is time for more Democrats to speak up.

13. Oy... calling DWS on her shit is "atacking the party"? That alerter is so off base.

DWS is not "the party"... she is a single person who needs to be kicked straight-the-hell out of her job.
Thanks UglyGreed for posting those results.

[UglyGreed]

17. No problem

[TransitJohn]

20. The alerter is an authoritarian

How else explain the conflation of an individual with the Party?

[Kittycat]

28. I was another Jurior voting to leave it. Might I refer the Alerter to this thread

And also a thank you to Thom Hartmann for saying what needs to be said!

14. "Who else are they going to vote for?" - DWS, every year again. eom

[Chasstev365]

3. STOP Being Sexist!!!!!

[FlatBaroque]

4. and anti-semitic

[nxylas]

5. It makes me cry

[tkmorris]

8. Sarcasm, yes?

[Chasstev365]

19. Absolutely!

[NHprogressive]

6. That is about as low as it gets.

I'm going to go on record that payday loans are the worst example of predatory garbage, and also that my opposition to them is wholly unrelated to Shultz's gender.

[maindawg]

7. It seems

That the very same people, er, billionaires who bought the Republican party so long ago and have run it into the ground are now very close to doing exactly the same thing to what remains of the Democrat party . It's obvious that they own Shultz and Hillary. The head of the snake. This is the moment they have waited for. To use this moment to prop up loan shark payday lenders is just arrogance . It's a big FU to the people. During a primary that is growing more competitive every day, they double down on thier greed. It's hubris. Blind go the reality and Americans growing angrier every day, while showing remarkable restraint you know that just below the surface, there is nothing but frustration. When you work so hard for a few dollars, one bad day away from unmanageable disaster. While the media has become the legion of doom , a propaganda ministry frightening people with imaginary Muslim demons and threatening fiscal calamity constantly reminding us that we need all the crap they sell . We don't need it. It's killing us. The constant 247 news cycle entertainment propaganda show goes on and on. They need to entertain so we get an idiot Donald Trump actually taking over the tattered remains of a once great political party. The GOP has become the KKK.
And the people now have no party. If they screw Bernie over and annoint Hillary, I will support Bernie as an independent candidate.

I can see a four way race between Bernie, Hillary ,Trump ( because they are going to screw him too) and Mitt Romney.

10. "Democrat " is a noun; DemocratIC" the adjective and/or the proper name of the DemocratIC party.

It was the DemocratIC party for as long as it was in existence, until about the 21st century. Then the Republicans ( I smell Frank Luntz) began calling it the Democrat party (the sound of "rat" lingering at the end). This was so successful that more and more Democrats and liberals began saying "DemocRAT party. This infuriates me!

[blackspade]

15. Thank you!

That drives me nuts.

[maindawg]

21. Got it

Thank you for the clarification.

[maddiemom]

27. No personal offense.

I agree with most of the points you make. Just that I'm on somewhat of a crusade to correct this insidious Republican campaign of the last decade or two. It's annoying enough to hear all the Repug candidates' brainwashed adherence to the "Democrat" party, platform, or whatever else. As a former English teacher who placed great importance on semantics, and the power of words, I HATE to see so many liberals falling for this tricky little "ploy" on words.

[awoke_in_2003]

31. It has been going on so long...

that younger people may have never heard the proper use of "democrat" and "democratic"

[Dustlawyer]

18. They own almost all of the Democrats in Washington.

It's not just a few of them, almost all take the corporate money now. They view it as the only way to stay in office because if they don't take it their opponent will.

This is the true evil in our campaign finance system and only one candidate is out to put a stop to it.

Feel the Bern!!!

[mountain grammy]

9. one of the worst scourges of our time..

payday lenders.. all perfectly legal and protected by our elected representatives to ruin people's lives.

[NorthCarolina]

11. She's just trying to build herself a respectable net worth.

Same as any other corrupt politician.

16. In a small town in Missouri population under 10,000 there are 5 of these blood suckers.

They tend to show up in old fast food franchises that have gone out of business. They out number banks, clothing stores, Supermarkets, gas stations and hardware stores. When taking a head count they do not outnumber antique malls and resale shop. I see the same thing in other small towns. Could there be a correlation between income and number of pay day loan sharks? Loan shark seem to have started the boom in the last 3 years. Of the 5 only one is in a new building in a new strip mall housing a vapor shop, Chiropractor, and a beauty/nail shop. As I was writing this beauty shops in this town greatly out number any other stores except Pay Day loans wonder what that means.

23. Lawmakers own a payday loan business outright or as an investment with other loan sharks. Then

they make their own laws. These lawmakers run two countries, their own payday mafia and the mother country-laws of the U.S. of America.

25. They have moved from the dark back street to main street.

They also deploy ugly flashy sign's. If humanity survives long enough they will be an archaeological curiosity but I doubt the connection will be made who made them possible. Maybe the next logical progression will be the company store. I must admit I was slightly surprised during an election year the chair of the DNC allowed her name to be connected to such an enterprise.

22. the dem party is a joke, DWS is the punchline

[Marr]

24. The party establishment is rotten, just like the GOP's.

They've turned government into a service shop for big business.

[Bluenorthwest]

26. But she's a Democratic Party Hero!!!!! Keeper of the Obama Legacy!

Guardian of justice and equity! Endorser of the candidate that best serves her interests...300% interests!!!!

[Stuart G]

30. Personally, I do not agree that she is a hero

What stands out is the truth, that is more important than any opinion by anyone.

If a person is in favor of Pay Day Lenders, they are not progressive or caring in my opinion
If a person takes money from these business, they are not the kind of person that deserves a special position in my opinion
If a person takes a very strong position against fair consumer protection legislation and against the agency that is supposed to protect consumers from fraud and unfair business practices, then that person does not deserve my support. ever !!!

I do not care what sex that person is,
I do not care what religion that person is,
I do not care about their family,
I do not care about their position on a lot of other issues.

To me, taking money from the poor, on so called legal loans, at incredible high interest rates, disqualifies that person from a position in the party that I support. That is a crucial character issue for me.

If the person is In charge of bank, Like Jamie Diamond...then that is the truth.
If that person is in charge of anything else, and holds that character, then that is the truth..

and...that is my opinion as I attempted to back up in the Original Post..

Yes, this is ugly to discuss this..in a way that is not particularly nice about someone's character..
But to me..as ugly as that is...it is far more ugly, ugly in ways most of us do not know...to be caught in one of those Pay Day Loan Circles, borrowing money to pay off the last loan, on and on and on...Thinking about it makes me
