LOL, only you could try and turn consumer protection against usurious practices a bad thing This helps responsible consumers too. People that want to use a credit card to maybe buy a refrigerator and pay it off over three months, etc. It even helps those who pay off their balances monthly, as there are huge fees incurred for being a day late, etc. It will decrease the number of irresponsible people that are approved for cards, which makes our costs (responsible people) less.
