debt relief

It may seem as if Connecticut residents are constantly being bombarded with negative stories about the weak economy. Stories about bankruptcies, home foreclosures and unemployment are often a part of the daily news. But there are some positive stories for those in need of debt relief.

Residents of Southport, Connecticut, were likely shocked when the sign was taken down from the restaurant Friendly's, a fixture on the local restaurant scene. The Southport-area restaurant has closed after nearly 25 years of serving food to the community, according to the Connecticut Post.

Connecticut residents have no doubt felt the effects of the sluggish economy, and can easily relate to anyone else undergoing similar experiences. When it comes to political candidates, some Americans believe those elected should assist in efforts to halt foreclosures for their constituents and not be struggling with their own financial problems. For one political candidate, his quest for public office may be impacted by the fact that he is not exempt from the problems affecting millions of Americans.
