If you have reached the point where you simply cannot pay your bills any more, you may be considering either consolidating debts or declaring bankruptcy. TV commercials would have us believe that both things are easy and effective. On the face of it, consolidating debts would seem to be a better route to take, although both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages. And bankruptcy does not mean the end of your life as you know it � although you should be prepared for some major difficulties in your life.

The concept of food miles originated in 1990 in the United Kingdom. It was conceived by Andrea Paxton, who wrote a research paper that used the term to describe the distance that food travels from the farm where it is produced on to the kitchen in which it is consumed. On average, food travels between 1,500 to every time that it is delivered to the consumer. The distance products travel from farms to end consumers is 25% farther in 2007 than it was in 1980. Some scholars believe that the increase is due to the globalization of trade; the focus of food supply bases into fewer, larger districts; drastic changes in delivery ...

They will try to make it too frustrating and time consuming for you to do something that is supposed to be your right under the Fair Credit ... Read More

The ads are ubiquitous, and for consumers awash in debt, nearly impossible to ignore: Reduce your credit card bills 50 percent! Avoid bankruptcy! The relief is real! Behind the ads is a fast-growing industry that barely existed a decade ago. Debt-settlement companies claim they can significantly reduce borrowers' debts by negotiating directly with creditors. Unlike most businesses, these companies have flourished during the economic downturn. But a growing group of lawmakers, regulators and consumer advocates say these companies exploit desperate borrowers, often leaving them deeper in debt. The Federal Trade Commission ...

There has already been a lot of talk about the fierce anti-incumbent mood in the country. The evidence in Senate races is that Democrat Arlen Specter lost in Pennsylvania and Republican Bob Bennett lost in Utah. On the House side, Reps. Parker Griffith (R-Ala.) and Alan Mollohan (D-W.Va.) lost, and Tuesday Rep. Bob Inglis (R-S.C.) was forced into a runoff by Trey Gowdy. With close to 90 percent of the vote in, Gowdy was clobbering Inglis 43 percent to 26 percent, suggesting that Inglis is a goner. But both Specter and Griffith were party switchers, and their new parties rejected them. Is that shocking? Mollahan faced a series of ...

As if humanity needed another reminder of the environmental, economic, and energy security issues associated with our collective dependence on petroleum, the BP Gulf of Mexico disaster brought the point home with a vengeance. Some of my more progressively minded friends have made statements like, "Well, at least the silver lining is that offshore drilling is dead and biofuels will be adopted quicker." Which led me to ponder, will biofuels actually be deployed faster in the aftermath of the disaster? And if so, is that really a good thing? The U.S. is the largest consumer of oil in the world, accounting for ...

how much better is the debt settlement option for your credit rating? i was considering calling Credit Solutions who claim they can reduce the total amount of debt by 40 to 60% Well Debt settlement is pretty complicated.

Depending on how much debt you have its probably going to be a big bill bigger than all of your bills combined even. Bankruptcy is probably easier. You only have to pay once and after its all said it done your bad credit and debt is TOTALLY wiped away with no gimmicks. But ...
