Union Bank Philippines keeping Filipino?s in Poverty
2009-08-20 05:38:00 Union Bank Philippines is doing its best to keep Filipino?s in poverty and people hungry. Remember the story from yesterday Unionbank Philippines Theft it is now 24 hours since that poor woman has been able to eat, because Unionbank Stole her money and will take 15 days to pay it back if they ever pay it back. We still can see no reason why it takes 15 days other banks in the world can sort a problem from a ATM fault like this in a few hours, we can only presume the reason for 15 days is it?s a long enough that many people will forget it, so Union Bank never has to pay it back. This seems to be the case we have had comments left by people who have never got their money back after ATM machines failed to pay out.While Unionbank does it?s best to keep people hungry and in poverty they also report record profits. Pat yourselfs on your back Union Bank you have record profits because you steal from your customers and keep your country in poverty. Bonnie and Clyde also bragged about the h...

Pay plays: Paychex (PAYX) and Western Union (WU)
2009-05-19 14:00:00 "With unemployment on the rise, shares of payroll and payments processors have attracted more sellers than buyers," notes Peter Staas.Nevertheless, the research editor for Personal Finance assesses two "industry leaders that each boast capable management, financial flexibility and attractive, long-term growth prospects -- the ingredients of a successful turnaround play.""There’s- no question that Paychex (NSDQ: PAYX) has been hit by the economic slowdown: Net income was down 9% in the third quarter as the credit crunch and falling demand precipitated a wave of business closures and layoffs. "And if the economy didn’t present enough of a challenge, historically low yields on high-grade fixed-income instruments have depressed the payroll firm’s investment income, which dropped 57% from a year ago."Despite these formidable obstacles, Paychex isn’t dead in the water. With interest rates at record lows, there’s little d...

In return, the workers’ union, which goes by the somewhat postmodern name of the Union of Union Representatives, has filed unfair labor practices charges against SEIU with the National Labor Relations Board. The staff union’s leaders say that SEIU is engaging in the same kind of practices that some businesses use — laying off workers without proper notice, contracting out work to temp firms, banning union activities and reclassifying workers to reduce union numbers Savor.

Dick Morris The Hudson Union Society VIDEO
2009-02-20 00:32:00 Possibly the most prominent American political consultant, Dick Morris is almost universally credited with piloting Bill Clinton to a stunning comeback re-election victory in 1996 after the president lost Congress to the Republicans two years before. Called "the most influential private citizen in America" by Time Magazine, Morris is considered a shrewd expert on polls and trends. He encouraged Clinton to pursue so-called third way policies of triangulation that merged traditional Republican and Democratic proposals, and issues to achieve maximum political gain and popularity.Morris began his relationship with Clinton in 1977 when he handled the Arkansas Attorney General's successful campaign to become the youngest Governor in the nation. Morris oversaw his comeback victory in 1982 as well as his Arkansas re-election victories in 1984, 1986 and 1990. Morris went on to become campaign manager of Bill Clinton?s successful 1996 bid for re-election to the office of President of the Uni...
