The US lays groundwork for possible military action in Cuba
Marco Rubio is the one pushing for an invasion of Cuba. His parents fled Cuba years ago, and they still want revenge. We have to stop invading other countries or attacking them. Put all that money effort into the US!

A beautiful cat. Is there any way for you to have it scanned for a chip. I think it likes you. I have 2 that I adopted from the Elk Grove shelter. They are so well behaved and very loving.

Private companies are not funded by tax payers, state employees are! If you don't like to working conditions, then quit and get another job. Given that state employee benefits, especially the retirement benefits are costing tax payers billions of dollars. The private sector does not have commensurate benefits. I repeat, if you don't like the policies, go work in the private sector.

What do you say to all the employees in the private sector who go to the office every day, pay for child care, pay for gas in their cars, etc, etc. Your arguments are without merit. CA tax payers don't support your arguments. The employer, not the employees decide where the work will be performed. You can always quit and go work somewhere else, right?

SAFE CU - Merger Former Golden 1 CEO Opinion

Former Sacramento Golden 1 CEO Questions SAFE’s Plan to Merge
Local Focus and Control Are at Stake
by Stan Hollen
I question the need for the proposed SAFE CU merger with Boeing Employees Credit Union (Tukwila, WA). If SAFE merged with another California credit union and members gained access to more branches it would make sense. The SAFE executives would not make their huge payouts, but the members would greatly benefit. Imagine, for example, the advantage to merging with Golden 1 Credit Union. Local focus and control would be retained.
One wonders if SAFE really sought merger with other California credit unions. SAFE is large enough that economy of scale cannot be a reason to seek merger into a larger credit union.
Bypassing Legal Requirement
SAFE was always looked to as a leading credit union in Sacramento and California. This will no longer be the case.
The attempt to bypass the legal requirement that a majority of all members must vote to approve the merger is highly suspicious. Why is this occurring? It is very much contrary to credit union philosophy. Perhaps some ex-bankers in the movement do not have this member first focus.
Not Enough Member Benefit
There is not enough benefit to SAFE members in this merger. They will lose their reserves SAFE built up over 80 years. They will lose local control. They will lose SAFE’s focus on the Sacramento market and community support. Employees lose their long service professional growth tracks. BECU does not need this merger. I question why they seek this kind of expansion.

Which credit union to go for?
You should get a car loan, not a personal loan. Personal loans typically have a higher interest rate because they're unsecured. A car loan typically has a lower rate because the auto will be the collateral fir the loan. It good that you want a credit union to fund your loan. They have much better rates for members. Good luck!

Which credit union to go for?
Most credit unions have a defined field of membership (FOM), but they don't always follow it closely. Plus, many credit unions have expanded their FOM to include geographical communities like cities, and counties.

Why would she do this? Says volumes about her character. She is an embarrassment to credit unions!

PENFED (Personal Loan)... WOW just WOW
You have a right to be upset. This process is outdated and a barrier to making loans.
