I learned my lesson the hard way. I no longer have ANY carry-over credit balances. Zero debt.

Tina Bouthillier

I used to for many years but as of March 2022, debt free! yay!

seaweed349

No. But I understand if people have to, but we are blessed enough to be able to pay it off every month.

Maureen Hannon

I got rid of all our credit cards years ago. The interest is ridiculous! You end up paying a lot more in interest than the the cost of the items purchased!

Margaret Meade

If I don't have the money...I don't buy it. Interest rates are ridiculous!!

Valerie Lantz

We pay off all charges each month.

rover6rover

Not for decades.

Jethro Born

Why buy more than I can pay for? The federal government does that, which causes inflation.

Robert Davidson

My credit card pays me, in the form of points. I do not want to pay my credit card company.

Bob Pickett

Have always kept a zero balance because I can

Facebook has no tolerance for Conservative thoughts, Honesty, or Political Satire. Elon is going to purchase Facebook next! He's already working on it, he is just waiting for Meta stock to fall further down. It has already fallen over 50% in the last six months!

Lisa Gore

One sided political Censorship allowed them to completely suppress the conservative and other candidates message for president from 2016 on. The censorship of Greitens Ad is a huge example! Infringes on 1stAmendmt. Social Credit system incoming. Ex: Say the wrong things you can’t get $$ at ur bank.

Jennifer M

Honestly, all of social media is screwed up. I detest all of it. But as much of a 1st amendment right Greitens has to make and post his ad, the social media platforms have equal right to view it as they wish and refuse to post it.

Max DeYoung

Eric Greitens' has the Right, to make and post the Ad. The people have the Right, to view or not view the Ad. Just like Biden has the Right to Blabber his daily lies and rhetoric, the People have the Right to Laugh at his Blabber or not listen to and not laugh at his Blabber.

Jennifer M

Just as Trump can say all the lies about a stolen election he wishes. We have a right not to read it. But he does NOT have a right to start a riot like did. Just like we don't have a right to yell fire in a theater or yell bomb on a plane or yell active shooter in a mall or stadium etc.

Max DeYoung

That is correct Jennifer, Trump can say it and you can ignore it, like we ignore you, Jack, and Adam.

Jennifer M

Max says I'm correct. Convict/burger flipper Justin says I'm wrong. Which is it boys?

Jack L

I avoid social media as much as possible, I think most of it sucks, but I guess they have the right to put up what they want as long as it`s factual. We have the right to go there or not

Jack L

Jennifer, for once I vote with "Lord Voldemort" Max, and I vote against "Jailbird Justin". You are correct, like usual

Jennifer M

As usual, Poor Justin is still all show and no go. We'll just say that's an "institutional thing". Hopefully that remedies at some point

Jack L

Sometimes inmates become "institutionalized " and it takes them a while to adjust to normal society

Justin Davis

Extreme bias against Conservatives, across Big Tech. Endless examples. This is fact, whether little liberals want to believe it or not.

Social media must do more to shadow ban, censor, and silence deplorable conservatives who are biggest domestic terrorists in USA. Any ideas that are not 100% aligned with liberal narratives must not enter the public discourse. Conservatives are too dangerous. Hell, Trump could be re-elected. /s

Max DeYoung

The democrats feel it is okay to censor Conservative comments and call Conservatives "Domestic Terrorist Groups", yet they just illegally entered the White House, and they terrorize The SCOTUS both at the Supreme Court Bldg., and at their homes, with their families and neighbors present. Go figure.

Bonnie Sandker

Keep the trash etc., coming from the Republicans off. Greitens went too far. Hasn't he seen all the killings of children etc., on the media? Trump should be banned for life from all social contact through Facebook and Twitter.

Jack L

Bonnie, you are 100% correct

Adam

Damn Bonnie!!! Go get em. Tell how you really feel....lol But yes, I agree with you

Vernon Taylor

An awesome hatred filled intolerant post. Illustrates what real Republications and conservatives face from liberal minions and their determination to silence and eliminate all who dare to voice realistic opinions and concerns.

When I lived in the city, I'd take the bus if I didn't have a car or it was unavailable. I'd do the same in this small town if there were any, but the local gov't doesn't want to put money into it. We need it badly. If you don't have a car or a ride, you are screwed! Espacially, when very hot/cold!

Robert Davidson

I live in NYC, which has an extensive public transportation system. I do not need a car and using public transportation is better for the environment.

I live in the county and no buses available. I drive a car now, but in 3 months will turn 80 and want to stop driving. I will sell my car and pay people to take me to appts and vets etc. I have groceries and pet supplies delivered.

seaweed349

There are no buses in the country. If I lived in a big city, maybe I would.

Shane Hill

Because i don't have to.

Valerie Lantz

I live in a rural area without public transportation available.

Theresa Scherf

It's not an option. I live out in the country ca. 5 miles from town.

Lori Johnson

Public transportation is not an option where I live.

rover6rover

Living in the country it's not an option. Sometimes ride the L in Chicago during family visits and we were on and off the subway in NYC last fall -- the only way to get around!

linda tansey
