Vickie's Viewpoint

There is no doubt in my mind, we are going through the most challenging financial situation we have ever gone through in our lives and it’s not even close to the bottom.

The reason our financial situation will get a lot worse before it gets better is because we’re trying to solve it the wrong way. It’s not about money at all, the financial crisis is only the results of a belief most of us have that we gain at other people’s expense. Think about it – why are there so many reports of mortgages going into foreclosures and people being forced to declare Chapter 7? Everyone was looking for a short term gain. Lenders thought they could profit at other’s expense, and the lendees thought they could beat the system.
 

No matter how hard they try, the government can’t bail us out of this gigantic mess because it’s founded on the SAME belief. In order for someone to gain, others will have to pay for it.

Until we change our basic belief back to how can we all profit, we will continue digging ourselves into a deeper hole. When we consider this seriously, credit and interest rates will balance out, jobs and health care will no longer be cut, and America’s free market will get back on track. For this paradigm to shift the right way, as a society, we must reclaim values such as “treat others how you want to be treated.”
