    Some crazy part of me wonders what would happen if 50%-75%+ of people just straight up refused to pay.

    And, not for like…one month. But 6-12 months. It would have to have a meaningful, negative impact to banks? Right?

      Paraphrasing a common saying… If 100 people can’t pay the bank back, the 100 people have a problem; if 100 million people can’t pay the bank back, the bank has a problem.

      im pretty sure their card would get canceled and then debt collections would start.
