Clash and Carry

. . . shows the inherent dangers posed by Big Credit. CLASH AND CARRY documents how a brazen miscreant can bamboozle careless store managers into proffering shaky lines of credit on the flimsiest of grounds, as the mercenary impulse to meet periodic sales quotas outweighs any semblance of sound judgment and cautious reasoning. The fish marketeer here is so eager to accommodate a cashless customer that the latter bad actor is able to make substantial purchases using the store's own cardboard advertising cutouts! Aping a compulsive gambler convinced a "hot streak" will never end, the money-mad manager puts his business' very future in grave jeopardy by going into debt to facilitate tons of bad-faith purchases for which payment will never come.
