Re: A DCA Writes
Mind you we had the MSO Polish with us in Germany they were doing perimeter guard at our Army Base, these Gentlemen were the Poles who after the war could not return to Poland (Free Polish Army) most would not even leave the Base, a lot of fun with them in the Naafi.I'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: A DCA Writes
Yes the free Polish army were traitors (well according to Stalin anyway). If you go into the Warsaw uprising Museum they are not so keen on any of the allies saying the British did nothing for them either at the start of the war or during the uprising. They also seem to gloss over the Jewish ghetto (probably guilt)
Poles are though lovely people as are Germans, all that was a long time ago and we shouldn't hold it against themComment

Re: A DCA Writes
To steer us back on track, I can see where the minds are wandering. Every body is working hard to stay alive, and in a manner they have become accustomed to. Customers and money are commodities, they are traded electronically by the financial institutions. It is their job. They do not see the person, and could not do their job if they did. The world has changed without us realising it.
Also, individuals have guilt that forces us to try and do the right thing and honour our debts - could it be that there are ex-nuns in charge of the 'charity'? They know how to instill guilt and, as you may know, we are a sinful bunch and will never get any better, but as long as we humiliate ourselves we may just get a glimpse of heaven, from whence we can see our families paying out the DCAs from our meagre estate. Once the guilt gets you, it can never leave.
Charity begins at home, and that is what the DCAs are pursuing: the slice of real estate you may partly own, as you could not get on the rental ladder. So securing the unsecured, high-interest-bearing debt against a property is yet another way to name and shame, as the Land Registry will let your name out, and the vultures that read the court lists will try and entertain you with their offers of help
The workhouses were charitable institutions weren't they? The masses were only separated from the workhouse by 2 weeks wages, and once in they rarely came out. The local dignitaries who gave money flamboyantly to charities would have done better paying a living wage and not charging exorbitant prices for tied cottages and company shops. We may not be slaves but we are still definitely not freemen.
At Monte Casino the Polish Free Forces were charitable too. They had a load of food and no men, so battalions of French troops deserted to the PFF as they had men but no food. They then went on to help the 8th Army whoop Rommel. It wasn't only Jews and Gypsies that died in the death camps. So with no family and no food in Poland after the burnt-earth policies, it was a no-brainer when they were invited to stay and rebuild the western european economies.
With usury changing form from lending money for interest, to lending money and charging for the servicing of the risk, you will probably find that the majority of the shareholders of financial institutions have no guilt on how the profit is made, whatever their religion - Mrs Thatcher's legacy - may the best dog win.
Usury was always frowned on, and until relatively recently Christians were not allowed to lend money for a living. Sharia lending also works against the lending of money for profit. As Jews were able to act as financial intermediaries and bankers and oiled the wheels of society, there are many tales of usurers (Fagin, Shylock), and it has been a cause for anti-semitism. Nowadays we just hate DCAs.
Credit card lending remains steady but no longer booming. Unsecured lending is on trust/guilt/faith/hope, but definitely not on charity. Plastic money has become a commodity. Margins are high but trading is faceless and virtual. So it is acceptable and not seen as usury, and there is no longer any religious or geographical impediment.
In summary, as there is no moral, patriotic or religious string to pluck, and DCAs do not have a heart, we have to rely on law to offer some protection. Let's hope we get it.Comment

Re: A DCA Writes
Profit, that is what is wrong with the system and until that changes I do not think that anything will change. Sure a DCA will be all warm and cuddly if that is shown by a profit growth faster than other DCA's .
I am sure that the employees are told we are all debt dodgers who lie and cheat all the time and it is a battle of wits. We can obviously all afford to pay off our debts at a reasonable rate but just pretend not to have any money and finally I am sure they are told he who shouts loudest gets most.
Unfortunately the few that do try to cheat the system give us all a bad nameComment
