        @USATODAY I would be curious what % of that debt is medical bills. . . I know that is my main problem, not credit cards.

        @USATODAY Compare median income to the same states. Compare cost of living. Cost of Real Estate. Cannot just look at debt. Study is flawed

        @USATODAY the traditional POOR states CANNOT get credit so they cannot get behind on their credit! Compare apples to apples.
