David,

You have so much trouble with English, I'm beginning to suspect you were raised and educated in California. THE INTEREST RATE ON HOME DEPOT ACCOUNTS IS 21%.

21% interest represents the lowest quality credit imaginable. The only reason a consumer accepts that high a rate is it's the only thing available to persons whose finances and credit history are a mess. Consumers with good credit use bank cards with interest rates around 9%.

You might try this article on sub prime lenders:

I don't expect you to understand it or make the connection to stores with exposure to sub prime credit, or the implications to the current debt ridden economy.

You can't teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.
