Poll question: I understand, at least broadly, what is in the credit card bill and I think it ......

1. What are so many of you unhappy about? The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have a cap

on allowable interest rates.

3. The lack of a rate cap is the sticking point

Its the elephant in the room, the ONE thing that should have been in the bill.........if Congress wasnt determined to serve the banks instead of their voters.

2. From what I understand, it sets much of the regulatory clock only

back to 2002, which is why it got such solid bipartisan support in the Senate.

It's not good. In fact, it's pretty bad. But it's a first step.

4. No cheap credit - why would there be? Loansharks and credit cards

give loans without collateral - at least the bill prevents the out and out falsehoods of credit cards.

5. Even the Bible has

exhortations against usury.

I guess all those Bible thumping right wingers didn't notice.

And the Dems have been bought and paid for by the bankers.

We consumers are fucked.
