Read recently that over 50% of our fellow Americans can't come up with $900 for an emergency.

And that's my last comment on the subject before Leon gives me ring.
You just said it yourself.... YOU buy expensive cards, but now you're going to question others that do, as well as the system that A) Is able to facilitate it, and B) Gives you a voice to be able to complain? Why don't you sell those cards Steve, and contribute the money to some of your fellow Americans that have less? Just don't be a hypocrite, put your money AND your cards where your mouth is.
