One economy is doing just fine. The people in this group have money. They are living well, eating out frequently and buying pretty much what they want.
<p> Then we have a second economy made up of the unemployed and persons living on the edge of disaster. Here we see a growing number of credit card and home equity delinquencies. These people are in a downward spiral. Having lost their jobs, they are using credit cards to survive. This leads to double trouble -- no money and default on credit card debt and home mortgage.</p>
