re: Credit Card Debt Jumps Most in 20 Years as Inflation Soars

Gas being $5.00 a gallon doesn't force anyone to use a credit card. Taxes being raised doesn't force anyone to use a credit card. A specific brand of Bacon being $11.99 for 1.5 pounds doesn't force anyone to use a credit card. Simply buy a cheaper brand. I swear we have some entitled idiots on here who sound like a bunch of whiny soy liberals. You or I aren't entitled to cheap gas, steaks, chicken or any other good or service. shite happens. Prepare for it and pivot and make better choices. This will end eventually. Life is hard sometimes.

Still don’t realize you’re just being an out right dick. I can afford everything you mentioned. My finances are intact and I don’t live check to check. However I’m also aware that 70% of the country does. And when that check being worth 1/2 of what it was 2 years ago yes it’s putting people in a major bind. This isn’t the outlier it’s the facts. Biden’s bullshite and the far lefts green push has put a majority of this country in financial stress. Which includes supplementing those check to check with credit cards or loans. That’s real world facts.
