I literally only mean that the cost of living has spiked so dramatically that people essentially have to turn to credit to cover bills. They shouldn’t have to do that. It should be reasonable for someone to live within their means, and credit shouldn’t ever be for paying down necessary bills to stay alive.
I am in no way placing the blame on the consumer. Sorry if that didn’t come out quite right. Like I said, I have cancer treatments that cost $16k a month without insurance. There is not a way for me to “live within means” without being a multimillionaire. I am not placing the blame on people in situations like this.

Fair enough. And I’m sorry to hear about the cancer. Fuck cancer.
