Sunshine Dodge Melbourne FL Being Legally Stolen From Owners

alan — Wed, 20 May 2009 22:25:31 +0000

Welcome to the new state owned economy. When the government bails out large corporations such as Chrysler, that comes with huge implications, some that look deceptively like nationalization. Hugo Chavez is doing it in Venezuela to the oil companies and Barack Obama is doing it in the United States to the car companies and banks.

Case in point is a local Chrysler dealer in Melbourne Florida, the community just north of Palm Bay. Sunshine Dodge Isuzu in Melbourne FL is being forcibly taken away from owner George C. Joseph after 35 years of family ownership.

Here is part of Joseph’s letter to the editor as published at PrisonPlanet.com:

On Thursday, May 14, 2009 I was notified that my Dodge franchise, that we purchased, will be taken away from my family on June 9, 2009 without compensation and given to another dealer at no cost to them. My new vehicle inventory consists of 125 vehicles with a financed balance of 3 million dollars. This inventory becomes impossible to sell with no factory incentives beyond June 9, 2009. Without the Dodge franchise we can no longer sell a new Dodge as “new,” nor will we be able to do any warranty service work. Additionally, my Dodge parts inventory, (approximately $300,000.) is virtually worthless without the ability to perform warranty service. There is no offer from Chrysler to buy back the vehicles or parts inventory.

If that doesn’t scare the crap out of you, it should! Here is a profitable car dealer, that by the way, my family has purchased cars from years ago, that is having their business, that they paid for, maintained, grew and invested money in over a period of nearly 4 decades, being stolen legally by the Chrysler corporation and the state (read, Obama Administration) right out from under them.

This is outrageous! We do not live in a third world country. The President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, did this to wealthy land and farm owners in his country and gave the land to people who didn’t know how to farm and ruined the economy. Is that what the current administration wants to happen to our country?

If this can happen to a local business owner, it can happen to anyone. What do you own that the government may try to confiscate? You better hide it before it belongs to the state.

Welcome to the People’s Republic Of America.

Apartment Rentals In Palm Bay & Melbourne FL

alan — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 18:26:47 +0000

I’ve featured several apartment rentals in the South Brevard Melbourne Palm Bay Florida area here on this Palm Bay blog so I thought I’d put them all on one post for easy access and to provide links for anyone looking to rent and apartment in town.

Price ranges, amenities, locations, living area and atmosphere vary greatly throughout the area. Some apartments are very nice and provide luxuries to pamper even the most discriminating renter and other apartments are budget and aren’t more than just a place to live. You can get whatever level of luxury you want, it just depends on how much you are willing to spend for your housing.
