Masters Of Deception

Somebody calls you up. Says " I'm from the bank"
Hmmm... you readily believed him.
He says " You have a Warrant of Distraint"
Pagka-alam mo it's :
SEC. 205. Remedies for the Collection of Delinquent Taxes.
CHAPTER II - CIVIL REMEDIES FOR COLLECTION OF TAXES
National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC)
He advises you to call Atty. Ek-ek otherwise,isampa na
ang RA 8484 sa iyo.
..teka..teka.. bakit nauna ang "warrant" keysa filing of case?
"and the bank will take your properties"
akala ko criminal case ang i-file?


Sa mga taga-subaybay ng blog na ito,
maybe we will not call them "Masters of Deceptions"
but rather:
"Masters of Discrepancies"

Imprisonment For Debt

1987 CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE III
Bill of Rights
SECTION 20. No person shall be imprisoned for debt or non-payment of a poll tax.

RA 8484,and other related laws, punishes you, not because of debt, but because of other things like dishonesty or deceits.

No law is designed to coerce a debtor to pay his debt.

So Many Things To Be Thankful About

Let us rise up and be thankful,
for if we didn't learn a lot today,
at least we learned a little,
and if we didn't learn a little,
at least we didn't get sick,
and if we got sick,
at least we didn't die;
so, let us all be thankful.

EB Batch 2010

To Miss Hopeful who coordinated everything
To Strider who was a very accommodating host

To the EB Girls/Secretariat who made the event memorable
To everybody who lend their precious presence
To others whom we missed but remembered

Is It A Date?

If not this Saturday,
Maybe somewhere in time?

Emotional Blackmail

While surfing last week, I chanced upon an article:

Emotional blackmail are attempts to influence or control by manipulating emotions. Emotional blackmail often follows a cycle of :
Demands - Resistance - Pressure - Threats - Compliance - Repetition.

Emotional blackmailers use fear, obligation and guilt (FOG) in ensuring that the victim feels afraid to cross them, obligated to give them their way and feeling guilty if they don't.

• You feel dominated - your life feels controlled
• You feel intimidated by unreasonable demands
• You are attacked with words, laughter or threats
• You feel manipulated by guilt, fear or compassion

A blog chapter about how to deal with them was previously posted:
