When you are lied to repeatedly and catch them do you trust that person again?
A one off is normal, even two could be reasonable,
This was on purpose. It's not secret information. Even the experts called it for what it is.
Charge up that credit card! No, No, No. Ugh. Limits keep increasing and so does the interest. People will become enslaved to the credit companies. Taxes keep going up & up & up. Doesn't seem right to lose your house over a tv and lego set.
When USA pays $106,837.00 per person or $323,045.00 per tax payer, then we can talk about not being poor. Until then this debt goes on your kids and then on their kids.
Every single person carries this debt like it or not.
When you explain how many Billions was wasted on illegal immigration by the feds directly and then the amounts they let the states have for illegal immigration, maybe then you might have something worth hearing.
Do you even grasp that student debt relief went directly to the National Debt?
Who is Adobe Analytics and how do they know so much about our smartphones. Free apps anyone?

And Adobe is selling your data. It's bad enough that mickeysoft and giggle do. That's why I use Linux with Firefox, duck duck go and Thunderbird. Libre Office is very good as well as GIMP. The best thing - FREE
This is going to be the last booming holiday spending for awhile. Some of it are consumers buying big ticket items anticipating Trump to screw up and have prices rise sharply from overseas. If inflation returns like before, this will be a downer for business, and wages that lag.

Using credit to get a 9% bump in spending is not a positive thing. None of this data is a secret, but if cherry picked lies is your thing don't read it.
