Now the lunches, stops at the grocery store, gasoline, etc all go on one credit card, and I make one big payment a month.

A prepaid debit visa card, like Vanilla Visa, requires activization online but you could use false information. If you used it in a brick and mortar store I do not think they know who is using the card. However online purchases overseas are not allowed. And they do not work overseas.

It's more than taxes and fees. It's 'we'll tell you how much money you have.'

It is just the cost of doing business,that is how i describe it.I do not know who's fault it is things have gotten so out of control.But the wealthy have made there move and it is a choke hold on anyone without means or the proud that want to live without handout's.

I just came from picking up some grocery's I had a couple good sell's on ebay my joy was soon squashed though,it seem's every time i go i get depressed and bitter.I actually started sobbing driving out of the parking lot with my marked down meats and damaged taped up dry good's.And even the markdowns go up with every visit.

It has come to a day to day exsistance because i just don't know what will happen next.the scare we had last month with the fed threatening to close up shop and cancel all disability ,401's ,and paying the troops(now that is dangerous ,messin' with a armed man's money)i really do not know anymore!!!

I just had a thought after putting some stuff on Barter Town,Do you think any of the tax laws will have a effect on BT.I am sure it will become a target of our Uncle too.

I doubt it. Aside from the flipping of stuff that someone paid almost nothing for it doesn't seem to be a huge profit generating market. Most I know are actually taking losses and getting rid of stuff that they upgraded from or no longer use.
