CJ,
Libertarians assured us that eliminating those caps and associated regular regulations would unless the free market, foster competition and drive rates down below the average of the time of somewhat under 10%.
So you're in favor of Trump's cap on credit card interest rates?

Because the liberals who dominate Reddit are against it, surprise surprise. They bring up the unintended consequences of imposing such a cap and correctly point out that banks will be much less likely to extend credit to average consumers.

Of course, once a Democrat proposes such a cap, they'll conveniently forget the arguments they made against the Orange Guy.

Just goes to show you that Trump is no free-market conservative. In fact, he's probably the best guy to usher in a new era of socialism in America.
