Although the explosion and crisis of the mortgage industry accounts for a gigantic piece of the debt across the US, credit cards are just as responsible. Credit card debt has been climbing for decades and is simply growing out of control during a time of such dire straits. More than ever, Americans have been made to charge away, for the most part due to the crumbling of the marketplace. Many people are getting by because of their credit cards. The sad part is, that can simply go on for so long before it places you in a corner like a cat. Most debtors find themselves robbing Peter to pay Paul by paying one credit card bill with the next. Credit card debt relief is an extremely slow process, no matter which system you take.
