The presence of the government money also has a significant impact on the confidence of the consumers. When the government has pumped in 787 billion dollars when it promises to deposit and other installment close to the same amount if needed, you certainly can rely on things to get better soon. You do not have to be pessimistic about your finances.Thirdly, the stimulus packages offered to credit card issuers and this has reduced to the possibility of the card issuers taking the moral high ground. When they could approach the government for relief when they were in trouble, what is wrong if the average individual approaches the government for relief?
The stimulus package is a part of taxpayers' money and there is nothing wrong if the average consumer wants a share in the pie.Finally, the stimulus package has reduced the chances of failure of credit card issuers and other secured lenders.
