  I’ve seen posts about buy now pay later services showing up on rent and utility sites. Creative must be a new word for ignoring the sinking ship.

  We don’t have hoovervilles right now because most cities are hiding them or destroying them. The economy is effectively (increasingly) running on “off the books” credit while credit usage and defaults are running away.

  If this were an old kung fu movie this is the part where you would hear “youre already dead”
