And taxpayers will save billions of dollars through lower interest rates. dolekemp96.org So what's the problem? We can do it. Yes we can. Household debt figures show Americans spending farther beyond their means than government Average credit card debt fell $286, or 5.8 percent, to $4,679 in the first quarter of 2011 from $4,965 in the fourth quarter of 2010, TransUnion reports tampabay.com.
