I cannot wrap my brain around their logic. I mean our govt mishandles the economy. Trillions in wealth are lost to mismanagement by the banks and other financial institutions.
Our govt is spending us into oblivion.
Taxes are skyrocketing. Businesses across the nation are shutting down.
And yet these jokers ignore what is happening and condemn the individual simply trying to work for a living.

Some may characterize that particular lifestyle as “borrowing for a living”. Living beyond your means is never a good idea. Planning for a rainy day is always smart.
If these individuals had borrowed less, and saved rather than spending every nickel they made (and more) — they would be better able to weather the storm. This is not without sympathy for their situation — but part of dealing with a trying time is learning what you did to get yourself there, and how to avoid it in the future. Many crises that are completely out of your hands can be weathered with prudent planning.
This is also not to say that I haven’t made some similar mistakes ... only to say that they were stupid mistakes when I made them, and stupid mistakes when they made them.
Live and learn.
