Proposal for "credit card activism"
Advertisements [?]
1. Identify one credit card company, preferably the one that paid the most to lobby for this bill;
2. Target this company and A)do not start any new accounts with them, and B) destroy any card you have with this company
3. Do this on a highly publicized web site where people can register the card they cancelled.

If we can set a very conservative goal of 100,000 I think we can make a point. More importantly, we can elevate the awareness of this loan sharking industry.

Over the past 20 years I have slowly witnessed the complete decline of customer service and any shred of concern for the regular guy has been thrown out the window. The corporate maggots continue to take authority away from front line employees who get stuck having to deal with irate customers. My ire is directed to every large corporation that has been screwing consumers increasingly every year.

Constructive thoughts?
