The Iphone is tempting but my current sprint phone bill is only $39 a month and there is no way the Iphone bill would come close to that. Will use that money for savings instead

You’re post made me laugh out loud. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large group! The question here is: who are the stupid people? The media for constantly painting the sky is falling picture? Or the idiots standing in line waiting for a freakin’ phone? Tough call.

I really do feel we would be in a depression, if people did not have credit cards.

I think many are in denial, many suffer from the immediate gratification disease, and some are just downright ignorant. But then, there are also many who regardless of the economy realize that it’s a great idea to save and buy wisely. I mean the “old” version of this phone just came out!

I don’t think the economy is great, but I think it’s caused directly by congress, a few financial institutions, and the fact that we live in a debt based society. (Maybe the iphone actually is an indicator of the economy. I don’t know many people who can just decide to buy a new phone and buy it without charging it.)

I think we will suddenly see some changes after the election, but with a lame duck pres, reps won’t be likely to vote for anything good until the new president can get credit for “saving” the economy.
