If credit card companies weren't making a fucking fortune from giving credit to people whom can't afford it, you wouldn't see them signing up broke college students at college campuses or at Spring Break events giving away CC's like it's candy.
Do away with cheap easy to get credit and it will only help the middle class but it will cause big business to crumble because they are the ones whom are sucking the blood out of the middle class and benefiting from all this.
The simple fact is our current economy is driven by people living out side their means.. You can thank deregulation and the guys at the top for this.. It's not just the morons whom couldn't afford to pay their bills because someone gave them the credit cards/loans they couldn't afford in the first place.

Deregulation is also the reason we hit out economic peak in the 50s-80s. It's the fault of the consumers for living beyond their means. IF they weren't stupid, the credit card companies would cease to exist. Try blaming the actual culprit. Government expansion and intervention is also why the Great Depression was prolonged. Get your facts straight.
