Default the economic crisis

holy smokes guys, times are getting rough. I know everyone is feeling what is coming down the wire here.

I got laid off my part-time job, over drew my bank account, and had to borrow money, all in the past week cos of some shit that went down b/c of the economy. I had to find a new bank, and what pisses me off most is I have a full ride to Ohio State but I just took out a student loan today to make ends meet.

I didn't start this thread so it would evolve into a political dispute but just wanted to open up discussion to see how everyone else has been doing and what everyone's thoughts were.

my family just called and said in Chicago people are getting evicted even though they pay rent because landlords can't pay their mortgages.

my cousin lives out in Vegas and she and her fiance couldn't make rent this month and her land lord said it was okay as long as someone was in the house. also she said all the casinos have laid people off, and everything is CASH ONLY, no credit or debit cards.

holy smokes guys.

I know my next check from the VA, I'm going to go get a gun and a bottle of gin and sit in the basement until this is over. times are tough!
