"They want you DIVIDED."
Heh, yeah they do. They also want you IN DEBT.
Getting out of debt is one of the best ways to start breaking the stranglehold (((they))) have on you. Especially now that banks like Bank of America and Citibank are wading into politics in opposition of the second amendment.
There is a lot of advice out there about how to start. I followed Dave Ramsey's approach and can recommend it highly. (And no, I'm not associated with him in any way.)
Pick a plan and stick with it. Make America Great Again by getting OUT OF DEBT.
