Throngs at the mega mall, is this what Christmas giving is all about?

Heck, purchasing anything with cash seems almost anachronistic these days.

Always using plastic has to contribute to the excessive buying. Deferring the cost of something-again often for something one doesn't need- has contributed to excessive personal debt of those people unable to pay off the credit card purchases in full each month, then get saddled with 20% or more usury interest fees from the credit card company thieves that prey on such people.

Ah, but I guess this is not the time of the year to dwell on the negative just 2 days before Christmas. There's plenty of time for "that" to resume on the 26th.

For now though, from this secular old timer, have a joyous holiday.
