Really a great article, but it's so frustrating to me to see such an obvious attack on our freedoms by eliminating our choice to choose our own financing options in the NAME OF OUR PROTECTION??? By who? Those who can't even calculate an APR to save their life? By those who "feel" it's in our best interest to pay OVERDRAFT FEES?? Hmmm, seems like if they wanted to protect us, they woulds start with Overdraft legislation, although that would assume that anyone in a US government office actually cares about the issues and not who is currently buying their vote. So, let's get out there and buy some votes!!
