INFLATION-ADJUSTED DOLLARS (2012)
Sources: Congressional Budget Office and U.S. Census Bureau.
In 2010, median family income was $51,360. If a typical family followed the federal government's lead, it would spend $73,319 and put 30 cents of every dollar spent on a credit card.
This family would have racked up $325,781 in credit card debt—like a mortgage, only without the house.
What credit card company would continue lending money to this family?
