frankly i think it is idiotic to confer short term debt onto a long term liability like a home mortgage...

if the borrower succumbs to bankruptcy, credit card debt can be discharged...if you roll that debt over onto your home loan, your principle residence is now vulnerable to creditors.

you give away the homestead exemption.
