But this is the problem. It is a vicious cycle. And all the time you are tacking on more debt because you can't afford the rising healthcare and education costs.

That is your problem. You refuse to think creatively. You think “healthcare” (you mean insurance) and only a certain brand of “education” are necessities without which you cannot survive. And you think debt is legitimate in your case when clearly it is not. It just does not occur to you that you cannot afford to live as you do. Were everyone to live according to common sense, all prices would crash. Debt abuse falsely allows prices to inflate. But the fraud can continue for only so long. You are in for a huge crash because of your own ridiculous practices. It is no one’s fault but your own.

To anybody who can see beyond the end of their nose, this is a prescription for disaster. It is a race to the bottom and it is America on the way to Third World status, where the majority of the wealth is concentrated in a few hands, and the remaining folks live in virtual slavery.

And it is all your fault. You deserve to be enslaved. Had you lived within your means, doing only the best YOU, not VISA, but YOU, could do, then you would not have become a slave. It is your fault only. You will discover that the façade you have crafted for yourself with debt is just not worth it. It is your fault. It is not mine, not Bush’s, not the Market’s, not the farmer’s, not the plumber’s – but YOURS. It is ALL your fault, slave.

You failed to answer my question on this issue, I'll try once again... if you go to the grocery store and see two items on the shelf that are identical, but one costs more, which would you buy? Although, your avoidance has already given you away...<g>
