    Let’s see if this actually happens or if people just put themselves in more debt. If there’s one thing the systems in America are good at, it’s preying on the poorer people by making all kinds of ways to still buy things and dig holes for yourself by loaning or credit cards.

    Most of the family I know on my girlfriend’s side that’s been complaining about the prices going up haven’t done much more than that, complaining and slowly creeping up their credit card debt.
