There is a real problem here, but our society is so strung out on credit that the problem becomes hard to see.

The firm's owner was suspicious because they offered cash.

Sad state of affairs.

Yeah, during the "war" on drugs over the last 15 years, if you tried to pay cash, you were thought to be a drug dealer. Now, you could be suspected of being a terrorist. Some people just like to go on the "one-payment" plan.

Kudos to the owners vigilance though. But it DOES say something about our attitude about credit.

Hmmm. I agree there's a real problem here but it may be hard to see if your head's stuck in a tight orifice.

Thank goodness for the businessman's alertness and awareness. If only our bureaucrats could show some of the same.
