    Do you realize that you can pay 0% if you pay a card in full, and still get the reward?

    Why are you trying to take something away from me just because you’re terrible with money?

      Come on, not OP but we both know credit cards disproportionately fuck over the poor. Sometimes necessary expenses surprise you and you don’t have any other choice. Personally I have great credit and 1 continually paid-off credit card but I’m not gonna pretend it’s a moral failing if you don’t. I know of a card that has a 40.99% interest rate here in Canada because it’s marketed towards poor people with bad credit.

        Capitalism targets the weak, but let’s not take away that guy’s 1% cash back (3% on groceries if you activate now!!)

      Shiny piece of candy over here!

      Look here! Shiny!

      NO! Don’t look anywhere else. Look here, Shiny piece of candy!

      That’s what a credit card is doing. Many, many people fall for the shiny piece of candy trick.

      Fuck your Shiny candy, fuck your tooth decay. Give me 10% capped for everyone.

      Tell me why Visa and Mastercard make so much profit per quarter… (it might mean their execs now have to travel coach and stay in only 3* hotels. Boo hoo).
