Money is the root of everything bad in today's sociaty.
My family have a long history even before money was created. My grand parents used to tell me stories of how wonderful it was for our ancestors. They all had a different market and traded things. After money came along and a few rules with it, things started going really bad. Some of my family members who are still living as Native Brasilian Indians do just fine with out money.
I for one don't have a credit card. I use my Visa debit card(s) or Business Check Card(s) incase I need to buy something online. I do use cash for just about anything and I like to pay in full. If I need to do something that seems a bit risky, then I'll try to get funds elsewhere.
The economy is in the situation now due to money hungry folks thinking they can make a few thousand $$$$ by buying a house and selling it 6 months to a year later, but the mortgage companies and banks sure made it easy. I just hope things get better and we can look back at this drinking a few beers and
