Horse manure. I pay off my plastic debt cards, then rack it up again, just like most everyone else. Just because a few people can't manage a household budget, doesn't mean it's an economic indicator for the whole nation.
As far as everything I (we) buy being made in China, that's B.S. as well. I buy cheap stuff that's made in china, consumable goods, like coffee makers etc that have a short lifespan. I buy Good stuff that I expect to last from either the USA, Canada, Europe. which may or may not contain parts from various other places in the world.
Finally, EVERYTHING I buy here, I buy from a American retailer, pay American federal and state taxes on it. They employ American people (I insist) and pay their salaries in American Dollars.
Apparently you haven't checked where components are made these days.
