In a video address to a summit on "Trump accounts" in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, McInerney said that the company wants to "help families save for their children's future through everyday spending."

A Visa spokesperson said the company will be "working with our US financial institution partners to enable a new capability that will offer cardholders the option to direct credit card rewards into Trump Accounts."

"It's a simple way for families to turn rewards earned on everyday purchases into savings for their children's futures," the spokesperson said.

President Donald Trump mentioned the plan during his address to the summit, calling it a "big deal."

[Griefbird]

[Lemon Lyman]

16. Ugh

Too bad the Costco cc is a visa.

[enigmania]

18. Fuck Visa.

[not fooled]

19. Aren't the krasnov accounts a cover for privatizing e.g. Social Security?

The accounts might actually be legit in the sense that red don isn't going to have access to them. IIRC the scheme is that big financial institutions want to con 'Muricans into letting the gubmint, dumbass 'Muricans, and apparently select participants such as Visa funnel money into "private accounts" on Wall Street that will eventually supplant Social Security? So the con is that Wall Street gets its vig and Social Security gets privatized. krasnov is sticking his name on these accounts but the evil aholes behind P2025 are designing these things.

What a dumb country.
