12. Some of these ideas have been discussed in an earlier thread
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=3253436&mesg_id=3253436

Somehow we need to coordinate an effort. Someone suggested a "cut up your credit card day" when this bill gets signed or goes into effect. I'm currently taping pieces of mine to letters to the turncoat dems who voted for it (and one to my senator Lieberman who voted for cloture and then nay on the bill, a chickenshit move).

But we need to figure out a way to make a public statement that will be noticed. People need protection from these predatory monsters, and regulation is the only solution other than getting people off the habit. But once they're ensnared it can be very hard.

Can anyone name a bill in recent history that hasn't been pro-corporation? We are becoming sharecroppers in a fascist theocracy.
