seems the credit card industy told Obama that if they cannot continue to rape their customers..they just might have to dry up credit..they said it in different words..but that was the basic charge.

4. Dang you're doing good with no cc's.
I really mean that. I have a couple, no big balances. But still, they're like loan sharks doing this with rates.

because they were too egregious on thier charges...120+ for cable, internet and phone...I now have AT&T phone and DSL internet...about 50 bucks..and free teevee..of course I need to go digital by 6/12...I have two $40 discount cards...so it will happen. The only bills I have are electric/gas, water, phone and DSL...there is food and gasoline for the truck.

On Edit: this winter in Detroit I also did not have heat when the temp was -9..we did have a kerosene heater which kept us from freezing..only not our pipes..so we are now in a prediciment with our running water and our draining water...but is will be taken care of and no credit will ensue!
