Speaking from experiance, I agree. Credit cards are like booze, a good friend or a bad master depending on the person.
They should not be allowed to offer cards to people with debt problems. All cards should be requested by the person by letter. Then the person should have the terms and interest rates explained to them and have a letter signed by them to show they know the dangers involved.

Yeah, and I just heard a commercial talking about what a low interest rate you'll pay for your FAST FOOD if only you'd use the advertiser's credit card.

I had a friend tell me last week that the local post office told her, if she wants to move and leave a forwarding address, they have to charge a dollar fee on a credit card.

She asked me to look into it.
