I know the comparison doesn't make much sense at face... The correlation is that people that have credit card debt use flawed logic to allow themselves into such a situation... The economy is supposedly in "recovery" yet the reason there is more spending is not because more money is coming in, but because the U.S. right now is borderline at an all time high for credit card debt... The reasoning behind using credit cards as a way of borrowing money is beyond idiotic because at 10+% is the worst way to borrow money... Best to ignore my "correlations" sometimes.
