Synopsis

When Hurricane Katrina ravaged America's Gulf Coast, it laid bare an uncomfortable reality: Despite its astounding wealth and resources, America is crumbling beneath a staggering burden of individual and government debt. Maxed Out delves inside the American style of debt, where everything seems okay as long as the minimum monthly payment arrives on time and the financial industry is your generous best friend. Hilarious, shocking and incisive, Maxed Out exposes how lenders lure consumers into debt and keep them there with excessive fees and high interest rates, and where the best remedy for debt is more credit.
