But I think it's also important to remember that it can be a useful tool when used responsibly and wisely. The problem is that the crippling debt most people have is from dumb decisions (like overspending on credit cards or buying too big/too expensive a house). In that case, you need to take drastic measures to get your debt back to a reasonable level and change the way you handle money to prevent it from happening again.
