Is anyone surprised that we're seeing this kind of uptick in credit disasters, especially for those folks who could barely afford to exist back when gas was 2 bucks a gallon?

Anyone at all?

Yeah, but how do we get Congress and the IRS to understand housing, food and utility bill payments are not "frivolous?"

And those with the lowest incomes suffer the worst, of course.

My man Tony! Love seeing this here in the Tennessean because not only do I know Tony as a friend and colleague, I also know the level of commitment and assistance he brings to helping the homeless.
