----> Did you know the average house hold is carrying something like 15K in CC balances per month? That comes to close to $400/month in service charges alone. I agree, this is a large, and dangerous national problem. NBC, CNBC, MSNBC and their parent, GE, have nothing to gain from pointing this out. Why...it might cut into profits.... I am beginning to think the only real source of objective news is going to be independent non-profit raving lunatics...some of who will be right and many of whom will be wrong...but wait...that's what its like now.
