(Morgan)Sometimes debt isn’t so bad, and sometimes it is, but one thing is clear: 80% of Americans owe someone, somewhere, some money.

And worse: a third of the country may have debt collectors chasing after them for that cash.

Consumer debt, the researchers found, is everywhere — but the distribution is far from even.
