Start writing about credit card robbery

It is almost impossible to believe that our legislators in Washington passed a bill that regulates how much credit card companies may charge, increase credit card interest - and then not enact it immediately.

The law does not go into effect until next February, which in the meantime allows these companies to rape and pillage the American public and make the interest rate anything they want until then.

Thirty six percent interest. That's highway robbery.

I, for one, am completely tired and worn out by the poor job these people do. I just cannot believe that we the public can stand for this. Just who are these people we elected working for? It certainly cannot be you and I. It has to be the financial lenders who are hurting so much and who brought us to the brink of disaster.

Or is every politician's lobbyist friend or relative who works for these companies? Help me here. If you are tired as I am, start writing your senators and Congressmen to complain about this injustice.
