    1. CC’s become a back-up to survive for some Americans. No one should be judging them. The economy is in deep water. The need to provide groceries, gas, clothing our children etc is always there. Pay attention to how many families and senior citizens are just trying financially to survive in this inflation environment. Over using cc’s is NOT always a choice. Currently, the use has become a necessity and that’s not good for America. Perhaps these same people are spending more because prices increased faster than a salary does?
