I am not arguing that they are abusing the system. My question is, what company is going to extend a person a line of credit for a car or credit card when they have no means to pay it off other than a monthly welfare check? Companies are there to make money, if they know you cannot repay a loan there is no money to be had in extending you the credit irregardless of the credit score.
