I Am Not Surprised, Are You?
Today on MSNBC, Herb Weisbaum writes an article concerning the continuing abusive practices of the credit card industry. I am not surprised at all that nothing has happened.
Frankly, I doubt that anything will be done. Not until consumers/voters tell their senators (who, in my opinion, have been in power for way too long to have not have protected our interest in this matter by now) that they need to take care of this problem today if they want to remain in that cushy seat for another 6-years.
But who am I kidding? Americans not ignorant on an issue so important to their well being? Ha!
After dealing with American Express I’m not surprised about anything the credit card industry does!
Credit card companies want to own people and sadly many people are “owned” these days. There is a personal accountability aspect here, but people shouldn’t be hounded day in and day out from credit card companies. Young people especially are constantly bombarded by credit companies and they often times don’t realize the future pitfalls for having the ability to buy whatever you want, right now.
