While that is true, we owe about 1/3 of the debt to foreigners! In the past, American inovtsers held nearly all of the debt and we were the worlds largest creditor nation, with huge interest payments coming into our economy, but now we have outflows of capital to foreign corporations and central banks. Can you imagine if the interest rate goes back to historical averages and we have to roll all this short term debt over at the new higher rate of interest?!? We can hope it won't

Product Review - what is this?

What is a Product Review? A Product Review is a way for you to share your experiences with a product. Your comments may be helpful to others who want to borrow the same device. The focus of the Product Review is on the device you borrowed and how it did - or did not - work for you (or a person with a disability on whose behalf you borrowed the device).

Do not use the Product Review as an opportunity to evaluate the services of the Loan Program Inventory! (For example, if you had problems with the device because the Loan Program Inventory did not send all the parts, address that directly with the Loan Program Inventory during the loan period or mention your problems when you complete the Satisfaction Questionnaire you will receive several weeks after the loan period.)

How do I submit a Product Review? On the description page of every product there is a link that says "I'd like to submit a Review". Once you click on the link, you will be directed to a short form where you can type in and submit your review. Please note: Each product review will be read and approved before it is posted.

Why do you require contact and other information when a Product Review is submitted? Your name and email address provide a way for us to contact you if we have any questions about your review, and is for internal use ONLY. This information will not be made public. We thought it would be helpful to individuals perusing the product reviews to understand the reviewer's relationship to the user of the product, and this will be included when your review is posted.

What should I include in my Product Review? When writing a product review it might be helpful to provide the following information:

  1. Why did you borrow the product?
  2. How well did the product meet your needs?
  3. Are there specific features of the product that you liked or didn't like?
  4. Is there anything else about the product's performance that you would like to add?

EXAMPLES:
I borrowed the reacher kit because my mother is trying to learn how to do things with one hand. She just had a stroke. The reachers did not work for her because she also has arthritis and she doesn't have the strength in her hands and shoulders to hold and manipulate the reachers.

I need text-to-speech software because I can't use my hands to type for long periods of time without pain anymore. I found Dragon is much better now than the versions I have tried before. It was easier to "train" the computer to recognize my voice. There still are some problems with the voice file when I use it when I am tired at the end of the day.

Disclaimer: All product reviews are solely the opinion of the person submitting the review and may be based upon his/her experiences (including the reviewer's training with this device and other AT) rather than any inherent short-comings of the device.
