A cap would eliminate a huge amount of credit overnight. Any questionable credit worthiness and no, not for you. Those rewards cards? Gone. This is a credit based economy. Online retailing etc... is huge. it would be gone. It would collapse everything pretty much overnight. The interest rates allows them to lend to more questionable people.

The rewards cards need to go, that's bullshit that we all subsidize these credit card companies and their ridiculous swipe fees they charge businesses.

I'm shocked the man who believes windmills can cause turbo cancer doesn't believe that Global Warming is an actual thing. The leader of the free world not only thinks that, but he Tweeted it for the world to read. He has direct access to some of the top-level experts on the planet. Yet he still thinks that because we're having an unusual cold spell it means Global Warming couldn't possibly be real.

He's an educated man, he believes in global warming. See the seawall he petitioned for permission to build at his golf course in Scotland with the application explicitly citing sea level rise from global warming as the reason. He just doesn't give a fuck about it except where it impacts him directly.

Now you're crossing the line. I stole those rewards from poor people fair and square.

I did see something interesting, one of my credit cards offered me a reduced rate of 9% APR for the next however-many months (nine, maybe?), I was assuming this was to entice me to consider carrying a balance on it. One of my others just sent me a letter stating that unless I contact them, they plan to reduce my credit limit (fine by me, they're the ones that kept increasing it unasked, and I don't need that much available credit).
