because the article is about the "average cc debt". because you have no debt, think about the other families struggling to make ends meet with higher than avg debt because we have a potato as President.
So now Joe Biden is personally forcing these people to swipe the credit cards and run up debt? Is this real life? You realize there are other options/choices that can be made before it gets to that point? You sound like the 400 pound Obese soy boy who goes to McDonald's and orders half the menu and then a 'diet' soda. What's the point?

Or it might be that a stolen election has resulted in an economy and inflation that has forced people that would not otherwise overextend themselves on credit cards to have to start using them more and not being able to pay them back...
Congrats on being too stupid to grasp the concept...

I’ve gone from easily zeroed out monthly to a standing balance of 2500. But private school tuition is having as much of an pact on me as is Biden’s economy.

I paid back my college debt. So that settles that whole college debt bullshite debate then.

Then you really didn’t think about it

Do you have a family Ron? Do you own a house Ron? Do you work Ron? During a recession because of STOLEN ELECTION, it’s makes it really hard to get by without credit cards.

None of those things require a credit card and as fat as this country is I think some people can stand to miss a few meals. Would probably do more good than harm. Nobody on here is entitled to cheap gasoline or food.

“Good Afternoon Dave, me and my wife jointly make $38,000 but are $476k in debt mainly due to my wife racking up credit card charges on her boyfriend. How can I get out of debt but also keep her and her boyfriend happy? Also, is it ok that the new car she bought him is in my name?”

Well the policies that are in place are making it ever more likely that people are having to go to a last resort of using their credit cards rather than their cash and we’ll probably see an uptick in welfare recipients too. Thus the thread title. So yeah this is a new problem as its been a generation since it last happened. People are being crushed right now and apparently it’s no big deal to you.

I used to listen to him and I think he's a smart man, however, I think he's turned others debt into his massive fortune.
It never rubbed me the right way that his commercials would sell you 50$ Elderberry bottles and then he'd come back and tell you not to spend money. Kick rocks snake oil salesman.

The "trolls" are the ones trying to blame Joe Biden or a 'stolen election' for people not being able to live within their means or control their credit card usage. If you can't afford steak don't buy it. How fricking stupid are you?

I have a family I own a home and I work. At no point during this recession have I not lived within my means. I've cut plenty of things either totally out or back. Joe Biden nor his administration are making or forcing me to reach in my wallet and grab a credit card.

Well, dang. Fuel companies should just start charging $12 per gallon then.
I mean why not?

Congrats, you are gaining serious ground on posters that have held the title of dumbest for a long time...
You really have difficulty grasping a simple concept don't you...
Posted on 8/2/22 at 12:39 pm to Jjdoc
I mean 35% of all dollars in existence were printed in one year, so it would be naive to think there would be no severe repercussions.

Joe Biden has completely mindfricked this message board. There are plenty of things you can blame him for but credit card usage which is a choice isn't one of them. There are avenues to exhaust before it comes to that.
