	Would the cousin Parton commute his son if he's convicted?
	So I've answered this question before.
	It was asked of me not too long ago, a couple of weeks ago, and I was very clear and I said no.
	We apply the same laws to everyone.
	There is not one set of laws for the powerful and another for the powerless.
	Freedom is back in style.

	Sean Hannity, the new Sean Hannity Show.
	More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold, inspired solutions for America.
	All right.
	Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
	800-941-Sean is our number.
	You want to join us?
	So much to talk about today, so much to get to.
	Well, more fallout from Merrick Garland's weaving and ducking and dodging that took place on Capitol Hill yesterday.
	We got this whole issue of the way the media is trying to portray this is Republicans are imploding.
	No, they're having what is a passionate discussion as it relates to all things budget matters.
	Look, the bottom line is they better figure this out and figure this out pretty quickly because we just passed the $33 trillion mark when it comes to the issue of debt that we're now accumulating.
	As a country, you cannot survive with this type of debt.
	You've got to be very worried when new home construction is down a massive 15%, which was from last year, which was down about the same from the year before.
	You see with pre-existing sales of homes that those numbers are deteriorating as well, next to nothing.
	Who's going to give up a 2.9% or 3.9% 30-year fixed-rate mortgage and trade that in because they want a new home and get a 30-year fixed at 7.5%?
	I know the Fed didn't act yesterday when they had an opportunity to raise rates, but the last two months have shown a dramatic increase in inflation.
	And I could predict right now, and I doubt I'm going to be wrong, but we're going to see inflation rise by a greater percentage next month when the numbers come out.
	Just look at what's happening with the price of gasoline.
	We're back to $4 a gallon.
	Now we have financial firms predicting gas well over or oil well over $107 a barrel in some cases.
	That's a lot of money.
	And these, you know, every, you got to remember on the issue of energy, which is where Biden's, you know, killing us, never mind the border disaster, and it's a disaster.
	But on this issue alone, on energy, you got to understand this is impacting every single solitary American, which is why most Americans are giving horrible grades to Biden on the economy because his economic policies are failing.
	His energy problems are policies are failing.
	And we're all paying the price for his stupidity and his rigidness in adherence to the climate alarmist religious cult that he is a part of.
	I mean, how embarrassing was it this week when he goes to the UN and he's talking about, well, we got to partner with China on climate change.
	China doesn't give a flying rip about climate change.
	They're not paying any attention to this.
	And all the, you know, the Saudis and the ENOPEC nations and Venezuela, why would we have more natural resources than they do?
	Clean burning energy called natural gas.
	Hundreds and hundreds of years worth of supplies, known supplies now.
	God only knows how much more we may find over time.
	And, you know, we can get gas now reduced below $3 a gallon, maybe closer to $2 a gallon.
	I think I'd prefer that over $4.
	The problem is, you know, with the price of oil going up so dramatically now, you're going to start feeling the impact in a month or two when they start refining it and sending it out to gas stations because everybody's paying more for everything that they're buying.
	What's the net result?
	You pay more to fill your tank, to heat and cool your home, and you pay more for every product you buy in every store you go to.
	It's insane.
	It's insane.
	There's a story that came out this week.
	You know, CNN, Morning Consult, survey.
	Most American adults have had to cut spending this year on top of the last two years.
	92% of adults have cut back on discretionary spending over the last six months, according to CNBC's poll.
	They polled 4,403 U.S. adults last week.
	That's a very large sample in terms of polling.
	Consumers were most skittish when shopping for clothes and dining out of restaurants.
	What about all the people that work at restaurants?
	You know, I used to say this to people, the rich, the rich.
	I'm like, I never got a job from a poor person.
	Poor people could not hire me when I was in the contracting business.
	Poor people didn't come to restaurants where I was working at, keeping money in my pocket where I liked it.
	Anyway, so consumers most skittish about all of these things.
	You know, if you look at the poll that we're talking about here, labor strikes now in Hollywood and Detroit are provoking fresh uncertainty, inflation going up now two months in a row.
	55% of lower-income households earning $50,000 or less annually, telling CNBC that their personal finances are suffering from the state of the U.S. economy.
	61% of middle-class middle-income earners bringing in 50 to 100 grand are feeling the squeeze.
	By the way, I even read a story, not that you're going to give a rip, but millionaires are afraid that they're not going to have enough money to retire anymore.
	Because what they thought, now, we're dealing with apples and oranges because they now have bought into probably a standard of living that they'd like to maintain.
	So is it as dire for them?
	No, it would not be as dire for them.
	Can they downsize?
	Yeah, they can downsize.
	Can they, you know, maybe get rid of, you know, a few of their toys or whatever they spend?
	Yeah, you can do all of that.
	But if you look at the actual numbers, the percentage of Americans cutting out vacations, 53%, groceries, 54%, you're not getting the groceries you want.
	And by the way, I go to the grocery store.
	I know people say, you don't go shopping.
	I meet people in the store every week.
	What are you doing here?
	I'm like, why do you ask me that?
	And why does everyone always ask me that?
	Because I like to eat and I like to make my own food and I like to pick my own food.
	I'm very picky when it comes to my food.
	I take a lot of time making my little meals.
	And they're little because, you know, I've been on this stupid NJ diet.
	I don't mean it that way.
	It was actually very effective.
	They're really good at what they do.
	But I'm literally measuring out, weighing my food portions of four ounces twice a day of protein and two fruits and two vegetables.
	Call it a day for me.
	I mean, you know, my stomach rumbling at night.
	The question is, will I wake up in the middle of the night and cheat?
	That's the only question I have, which tends to happen occasionally.
	So the way to prevent that is when I'm strong and conscious and awake is when I just throw all anything that might tempt me that night.
	I throw it out.
	Then I regret later throwing it out.
	And if I threw it out in a way that I might be able to retrieve it, I'm known to have done that a time or two.
	Has anyone else done that?
	So now I've taken to actually going into my garage and open up the big garbage can.
	And if I really don't want to even contemplate retrieving it, I'll put it in there.
	That's awful.
	Jason, you're getting a kick out of it.
	I'm just saying maybe you should have Linda make one of her great green shakes.
	Okay.
	That'll help you.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	Well, I don't even know.
	It is so disgusting.
	If you go back to The Exorcist and Linda Blair's head going, you know, 360 and projectile vomiting.
	I'm still looking forward to the new Exorcist movie coming out.
	Oh, I am.
	It's coming when it's coming out in November, right?
	You should take her.
	No, thank you.
	I'm not taking it.
	I'm not going anywhere.
	Only if they have the green, you know, projectile vomit, basically that looks exactly like the drinks that she loves so much.
	Closed shopping, people, no, they're opting out 63% of Americans.
	Dining out, 62.
	Oh, it's a lot of money.
	There's a story earlier in the week in the New York Post about just New York alone.
	Look at this.
	These are liberal New Yorkers.
	This is what they have, the seeds they have sown and the consequences of their politics.
	Even in liberal New York, is New York State on the right track or headed in the wrong direction?
	Only 35% say they're on the right track.
	52% wrong direction.
	As you consider all aspects of living in New York State, do you think the quality of life in the state is getting better, staying the same, or getting worse?
	57% getting worse.
	Only 14% say better.
	Then how would you describe the fiscal condition of New York State right now?
	69% negative, 26% positive.
	You know, what do you think is the single most important issue that the governor and the legislature should be working on right now?
	Well, 27% cost of living, 19% crime, 18% influx of illegal immigrants.
	Here's another thing.
	The governor of New York, Hochul, I mean, I'm telling you, this is a hardcore blue state now.
	Her unfavorable ratings are below water.
	She's got a 40% favorable rating, 41% unfavorable.
	In New York, that's a big deal.
	And I think it's going to go down.
	But anyway, but they still don't like Donald Trump.
	Don't worry.
	They don't like Republicans.
	83% of voters say the cost of living is a major problem.
	77%, the availability of affordable housing is a major problem.
	73% crime is a major problem.
	Illegal immigration, 62%, a major problem.
	69% gave a negative response to the state's financial condition.
	They're not wrong.
	What's wrong about this?
	But you have top Biden energy officials saying that the president's push for electric vehicles is not sustainable.
	Wow.
	Top official at the Department of Energy tweeted Monday that the White House plans to replace all gas-powered cars with electric vehicles is unworkable.
	Well, maybe Ford can teach them a thing or two.
	You know, and this is where I support the UAW.
	And by the way, I don't know why there's an article that said that my audience last night on TV was against the UAW.
	They were not.
	They were against the 32-hour workweek proposal.
	Look, I love you guys in the auto business.
	I want you guys working.
	I really do.
	I want you to get a nice pay raise.
	I'd love to see you all get, you know, just like the CEOs of a lot of the big car companies, you ought to share in profit sharing.
	I think that would be the single best solution for everybody.
	If everyone is pulling in one direction and everyone benefits significantly when you all make money and you work as a team, then everyone's got to be incentivized to do the best job they can.
	Now, you're not going to get CEO pay.
	That's just not how it works.
	I don't get paid what my CEO gets paid.
	I don't think.
	I hope I get paid more.
	But that's beyond the, I'm just joking, obviously.
	But General Motors now has to lay off 2,000 workers in Kansas at their assembly plant there, the facility, because the facility in Detroit went on strike.
	So that means there's no work.
	They need their work to do their work.
	That makes sense.
	You know, here's the story I was mentioning.
	Millionaires are afraid they're going to outlive their retirement savings.
	Millionaires on average thought they need $3 million to retire comfortably, according to the latest findings, Financial Services Northwestern Mutual.
	And of those millionaires, people with more than a million in investable assets, 33% are afraid they're going to run out of money later in life.
	47% said they needed to improve that financial planning.
	Got a really scary article in the Epoch Times today about the coming collapse of the U.S. banking system.
	The International Energy Agency is predicting an oil supply shortfall.
	What do you think that's going to do to prices?
	As U.S. emergency oil reserves remain dangerously low.
	Yeah, Joe basically rated our reserves so that the Democrats would do better in 2022.
	Nobody seemed to care at the time we were pointing it out.
	And then they had the cost of illegal immigration on every American.
	In New York State, this city, they're spending, no, state, they're spending $40,000 a year per illegal immigrant.
	You got to be kidding.
	And they're going to spend $12 billion, $12 billion in the next year and a half.
	New York governor to the illegal immigrants, if you're going to leave your country, go somewhere else.
	But we have to let the word out that when you come to New York, we're not going to have more hotel rooms.
	We don't have capacity.
	So we have to also message properly that we're at our limit.
	If you're going to leave your country, go somewhere else.
	But the smarter thing is to apply for asylum before you leave your country.
	And then you'll have a different point.
	And then New York City Mayor Adams slamming Biden over New York City's illegal immigrant crisis.
	The president comes to town.
	He's back home.
	He's probably now sleeping.
	It's nappy time.
	And he refused to meet with the mayor.
	Well, you don't want to, you don't really care what your crisis has done.
	By the way, if you look at the numbers, 4,000 in a day.
	The surges are now getting bigger than they were before Title 42 removed.
	They're the biggest they've ever been.
	And the cartels are doing it by design.
	They're flooding the zone, so it frees up.
	All the resources are then used to deal with the flood of illegal immigrants.
	They're not turning them away.
	And we have no background checks.
	How does that make sense?
	Anyway, 800-941-Sean, our number, if you want to be a part of the program.
	Look, you do know when a company is offering to upgrade your service and they don't charge you for it.
	How cool is that?
	Well, if you're a Pure Talk customer, they just did it for you.
	And they've added a lot of data to every single plan they have.
	They're including mobile hotspot to every plan.
	No price increase at all, not a penny.
	If you become a new customer, you'll benefit as well.
	For example, they've been offering 20 for 20 bucks a month, unlimited talk, unlimited text.
	Now 50% more 5G data and mobile hotspot.
	20 bucks a month.
	Try and get that from the big carriers, ATT, Verizon T-Mobile.
	Also, remember, PureTalk uses the same 5G network.
	They use the same cell towers.
	You're going to love Pure Talk, veteran-owned company, my cell phone company.
	Same service, average family saving close to $1,000 a year.
	It's simple, fast, and easy to make the switch.
	Dial pound 250.
	Say the keyword, save now, make your switch to Pure Talk.
	Do it now.
	You save an additional 50% off your first month.
	Pound 250, keyword, save now.
	Switch to my cell phone company, Pure Talk.
	A word from the 46th president of the United States.
	We're going to seize the luxury homes and other ill-begotten gays of Putin's kleptocracy.

	I mean, the amount of money is just staggering.
	You know, by the way, the Biden administration is now offering to fly illegal immigrants direct from their hometown south of the border to 43 cities throughout America.
	You think I'm making this up?
	No, Washington Examiner, they've unleashed a new program to fly illegal immigrants directly from their hometowns into the U.S., the city of their choice, according to newly obtained records.
	Instead of rushing the Texas border, the program lets illegal immigrants use the administration's phone app to pick a destination, buy an airline ticket, and fly in unseen on what amounts to be ghost flights.
	According to the Center of Immigration Studies, which sued the Department of Homeland Security for the documents on the program, over 210,000 illegal immigrants have been processed this way.
	Instead of crossing illegally, the DHS, they're just inviting hundreds of thousands of would-be illegal border crosses the opportunity to do it unseen.
	Wow.
	Talk about aiding and abetting lawbreaking.
	Listen to this show one time and you're hanitized.
	Sean Hannity is back on the radio.
	All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
	Thank you for being with us.
	800-941-Sean is our number if you want to be a part of the program.
	At this very moment, Ukrainian President Zelensky is at the White House and Joe and Joe Biden out there meeting with them.
	Wants to give him another, what, $25 billion.
	Tell you why they've lost conservative support in a minute.
	First, I want to remind you, Phoenix Capital Group is inviting you to invest in the heart of America, support U.S. energy independence.
	And what they're now doing is connecting private investors just like you with investments in tangible oil and gas assets, mostly on the state level, investing in these U.S.-backed securities, now yielding 9% to 13% annual interest with monthly payments.
	Clearly a vote of confidence in the American dream.
	Now, to find out more, do your due diligence.
	And right now you can sign up, get their free educational webinar.
	It's at phoenixonhannity.com.
	All right, Phoenix on Hannity.com.
	Before making any investment decision, always carefully consider, review any all risk involved and learn how to diversify your portfolio, now yielding 9% to 13% annual interest.
	Phoenix Capital Group, the educational webinar is free to attend and learn more details.
	Anyway, Phoenix on Hannity.com.
	All right, so President Zielinski, Joe Biden, Joe Biden, Zelensky's wife now walking into the White House.
	I'm sure they're going to be talking about climate change.
	I'm sure that's a big part of it.
	Here is why conservative support for Ukraine has whittled away.
	It doesn't really even exist anymore.
	The conservatives I speak to, and it is beyond frustrating to me.
	Unlike some people that have taken the position, and I'm not sure why they believe this, but that Vladimir Putin is evil.
	Let's just be very clear up front.
	He's a murdering dictator thug.
	What he has done, indiscriminate bombing of innocent men, women, and children is soulless.
	He's a guy without a conscience.
	And it is, you know, it's really become genocide.
	And the world, you know, has to look at this and say, especially Europe, it's their continent.
	Why aren't they doing more?
	Why is it that the world, Europe in particular, and frankly it's the entire world, you know, we're funding all these globalist organizations.
	You know, why are we funding the WHO after what they did to all the world with COVID?
	Why are we even giving a penny to the WEF?
	Why are we paying the bulk of money for the Paris climate accords that allows China and India to be classified as developing nations, which means they pay, you know, just a minor percentage of what we're paying for the climate accords, which is why Trump got out of it and why we should get out of it.
	And anyway, so this thing starts.
	Everyone was saying, oh, Vladimir is not going to go in, not going to go in, which was stupid.
	I don't know why people were saying that.
	It was pretty clear he had every intention of going in.
	We know his geopolitical ambitions and territorial ambitions.
	So that was obvious to anyone with eyes to see.
	But he goes in and look at the wreckage.
	Now, to the credit of the Ukrainian people, and I mean this, the Ukrainian people, you know what?
	Their valor, their courage, their bravery in fighting back and succeeding in ways I don't think anyone would have predicted.
	It's pretty amazing.
	It's really amazing, actually.
	And the problem is from the get-go and, you know, ever since we have a men, the people of Europe have not stepped up and they are not fulfilling their financial burden to protect their own continent.
	Well, I'm sorry, but we have $33 trillion in debt.
	And if you're not going to protect your backyard, don't expect America to have a blank check to protect it for you.
	I don't want what's happening to happen.
	Unfortunately, too, we've had graft and we've had monies misappropriated, missing monies.
	Zelensky's fired this person, that person.
	A lot of people that I've talked to think that he himself is benefiting.
	I've not seen that.
	Wouldn't surprise me.
	Happens all the time.
	The one thing that the guy didn't do that you got to give him credit for, you know, the United States offered him, you know, free passage out of Ukraine just at the beginning, just before in the beginning of the onset of this war.
	He said, I'm not leaving, I'm staying.
	I'm going to fight for my country.
	And he obviously is Putin's number one target there.
	So I give him credit for staying and fighting for his country and trying to lead his country.
	And I understand the constant need and the lecturing that we kind of got at the UN yesterday.
	And I'm like, America has done its fair share.
	Europe has not.
	And America shouldn't consider another penny until Europe does more than their fair share to protect their continent.
	Secondly, you know, we have a president from the very beginning vetoed 28 MiGs that Poland wanted to send in and to help the Ukrainians battle back against Putin.
	The person that vetoed that was Joe Biden.
	Why did Joe Biden do that?
	He didn't want a major escalation.
	Well, that was everything I needed to see to convince me they have no intention of fighting to win the war.
	And, you know, it's kind of mind-numbing to me that so many people have not learned the lessons of these long, protracted wars, especially Joe Biden after his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
	America should never, if you're going to engage in battle overseas, it has got to be with a mentality or a doctrine that says we are going to destroy and eviscerate you as quickly and as cheaply as possible.
	Not talking about nuclear weapons, kind of like what Trump did with the Caliphate.
	That's how it has to happen.
	We have the ability to fight wars using satellite technology, advanced military technology, and be inside any office building in any state within the United States, and we can fight wars that way or assist people that way.
	You know, it really hasn't been well reported.
	One of the most successful and least expensive tactics that the Ukrainians have used is they're sending these drones, these armed drones over Russia and Moscow and hitting military targets.
	Unlike Putin, they're not targeting civilian neighborhoods and apartment buildings and hospitals and schools.
	No, they're targeting where the leadership is.
	They're targeting where the military is.
	Most Russians don't want to fight this war.
	I said from the beginning, too, the best thing that could happen, the best way that this could end is people within Russia say goodbye to Vladimir Putin for all of us and involve themselves and say this is not the direction we want this country to go in anymore.
	I think if you're, you know, a lot of Russians have been dead set against this.
	But we're going to see.
	But, you know, support for this is now at a low.
	But Biden's going to announce that he's going to give another $25, what, billion dollars to Ukraine.
	How many billions can he keep giving away?
	800-941 Sean is a number.
	So I want to remind you, as this Washington Examiner piece, the Biden administration unleashing a new program to boost illegal immigration that allows immigrants to fly directly from their hometowns into a U.S. city of their choice, according to these newly obtained records.
	Instead of rushing the Texas border, the program lets illegal immigrants use the administration's phone app to pick a destination, buy an airline ticket, fly in unseen on what amounts to a ghost flight.
	Well, how come if I fly to another country, I have to show something called a passport?
	Where are their passports?
	You know, where is their legal processing?
	Where is their background check to make sure they don't have radical associations?
	According to the Center for Immigration Studies, which sued the Department of Homeland Security for the documents on the program, they have already allowed over 210,000 illegal immigrants into this country since January.
	Instead of crossing illegally, the DHS is inviting thousands of illegal immigrant crossers, border crossers, the opportunity to access what they call the CBP1 phone app, where they can make an appointment with U.S. officials at land ports of entry.
	And after making the appointment, the DHS invites these illegal immigrants, inadmissible illegal aliens, to walk over to the American side of the land ports where U.S. customs officials quickly parole them in, allow them to travel to a city of their choice in our nation's interior.
	The report immigration analyst Todd Bensman said.
	He said the documents he received provided total numbers of immigrants and where they have flown in from, but not to identify any of the 43 cities where they have landed.
	People from Haiti flew into U.S. airports in the greatest numbers from January through mid-September.
	76,582 program was offered to Venezuelans a few months later, October of 22.
	Since then, 63,360 people from Venezuela flying into these 43 airports.
	46,794 Cubans flew into 41 airports.
	Thank goodness you got some information coming out here.
	Biden has now expanded the work permits to 470 plus thousand Venezuelans.
	What do you think the people in Venezuela are sending over?
	Their best, their brightest?
	I don't think so.
	You know, remember the media they fumed over Donald Trump's detention of illegal immigrants.
	This issue is now boomeranging back on them.
	Why did it take a while?
	Remember Joe Biden's cages for kids in the middle of a pandemic?
	Border crossings returned to levels from before Title 42 was dropped.
	8,000 now apprehended a day and 20,000 now in custody only 18 weeks after Biden insisted that there'd be no more chaos.
	Biden administration is now offering to fly these people in.
	You just can't make this up.
	You can't make it up.
	Estimated 472,000 Venezuelan illegal immigrants, including tens of thousands in New York City.
	They're getting protection from deportation.
	Now one has to ask the question, why is Joe Biden doing this?
	What is the point of this?
	Leaked images show Biden administration has a planned ICE ID card for illegal immigrants.
	Fox News now has pictures of it on FoxNews.com, shedding light on the Biden administration's planned ID for illegal immigrants as officials now looking for ways to track the volume of illegal immigrants being released into the U.S. We're just going to give them ID cards.
	Here, you're free.
	Go get a license.
	Pennsylvania now is allowing illegal immigrants.
	You know, anybody can get a license pretty much anywhere.
	And now they have brought in motor voter laws in Texas.
	I'm sorry, in Pennsylvania.
	Texas Governor Abbott has accused the administration of cutting the razor wire at the border, opening the floodgates.
	Donald Trump has now said yesterday that he will carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history of elected.
	Mayor Adams urging Biden to visit Roosevelt Hotel in New York, but he already left.
	Even the New York governor is mad, and the New York mayor is mad at Joe Biden.
	By the way, we'll have the latest updates on the Biden crime family and Merrick Garland's ducking, dodging, weaving, obfuscation of a congressional hearing yesterday.
	Oh, my favorite thing of the day, though, is President Biden got confused again yesterday.
	He walked into a giant flag at the UN.
	Did you see this?
	Then appeared to anger the Brazil's president because then he walked offstage and didn't shake the guy's hand.
	I'm sure he forgot.
	You know, he literally walked into the seven-foot-tall Brazilian flag as he took the stage, taking a moment to get his bearings as the flag was wobbling, then struggled with a headset of a translation device.
	Soon noted by the Brazilian president who was with him for a joint speech agreeing to partner on workers' rights.
	Can you hear me?
	Can you hear me?
	It's so embarrassing.
	Man, is it embarrassing?
	How do you wander off a UN stage without shaking the president's hand?
	Only Biden could pull that sucker off.
	Here's an interesting side note.
	I'm not sure how RFK Jr.'s plan is doing, his campaign is doing, but Eric Clapton raised $2.2 million for him.
	That's pretty interesting.
	It's a lot of money.
	Anxiety rippling through the Democratic Party over Biden, and they're trying to fight back on this narrative.
	They're trying to say, no, no, no, stop worrying.
	Everything's going to be fine.
	Joe's good.
	He's really in good shape.
	If you don't believe us, just watch me.
	Joe said, every time I watch him, I get scared to death.
	By the way, one funny note about this UN assembly meeting today: there's been story after story that there's a 25% increase in the use of high-priced escorts.
	Apparently, they fly in from all over the United States, you know, Vegas, everywhere.
	$3,000 to $5,000 per session because a lot of the diplomats don't want to go to strip bars or other places where they might be seen and caught.
	On top of that, all these people rail against the missions, and they're all driving around New York City.
	The traffic has been hell.
	Gas-guzzling SUVs, private jets, many of them like private jets like 757 private jets.
	There's a lot of carbon emissions in the air there.
	Anyway, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
	By the way, Biden tells his Charlottesville story twice to the same audience, word for word, minutes apart.
	Want to know a sure sign of dementia?
	That's one of them.
	IRS officials say Biden appointed an attorney, stiff arm plans to charge Hunter with tax crimes, and the Biden administration sent 800 troops to help process illegal immigrants at our border.
	Wow.
	Unreal.
	All right.
	I want to remind you, these are tough economic times.
	Now, let me put it this way.
	If you, some people, Americans now, 61% live in paycheck to paycheck, many putting bare necessities on their credit cards.
	All right, credit card debt now, interest rates are 20, 25%.
	Okay, let's say you have a $10,000 credit card balance.
	Pay only the minimum every month.
	Don't put any additional charges on the card.
	It's going to take you eight and a half years to pay that off.
	Well, that doesn't even include the extra fees, compounding interest.
	You can't let stuff like that happen.
