A Vinton man is suing three out-of-state companies that he says prey on Virginians with debt problems.
In a lawsuit filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Roanoke, Johnny Quesenberry said that Genesis Financial Solutions Inc., Asset Acceptance Capital Corp., and Access Acceptance LLC -- all chartered in Delaware, though based in Oregon and Michigan -- tempt potential customers with mailings that offer credit cards and assistance lowering debt. Instead, people who sign up for the companies' Pearl Card Gold MasterCard or debt-reduction programs could end up paying more, the lawsuit said.

The story is that as Mark Twain and novelist William Dean Howells stepped outside one morning, a downpour began and Howells asked Twain, "Do you think it will stop?" Twain answered, "It always has." The debt-ceiling impasse has, as things generally do, ended, and a post-mortem validates conservatives' portrayal of Barack Obama and their dismay about the dangers and incompetence of liberalism's legacy, the regulatory state.
For weeks, you could not fling a brick in Washington without hitting someone with a debt-reduction plan - unless you hit Obama, whose plan, which he intimated was terrifically brave, was never put on paper.

While many are glued to the television and the Internet waiting for the latest on the debt ceiling and deficit reduction talks, the manufacturing economy slowed further in June as evidenced by negative durable goods figures for the month. The Federal Reserve offered a weakening economic picture in its July Beige Book report, which showed a moderating pace of economic activity in many of the 12 Federal Reserve districts. This not only mirrors the gross domestic product (GDP) trends over the past few quarters -a weakening growth picture - but carries that picture of weakening growth into the second half of the year.
Meanwhile, the first half of corporate earnings season has been mixed - characterized by some companies delivering while others are not while more than a few cut their outlook...
