And moving along to the REAL issues...

I love NYT graphics. That's just the kind of gal I am. This (oh, you have to go to the Series Index and scroll over to the American Way of Debt graphic) looked a lot better and was more fun to explore in the actual paper, but did you know:

The average American household has $8,565 in credit card debt?
We've reached 1930s savings levels, at $392--that's ANNUAL--per household.

Aren't we swell?!

And I doubted the need for an organization like Colorado Saves.
