If they are soaking us with high interest rates, and they can't manage their finances, then they surely deserve to go belly up.

I have no sympathy for the credit card companies. They surely don't deserve any bailout, but no one is held at gun point and forced to get credit cards. Anyone who signs up should be aware that there are interest charges and they'll end up paying $12 for the $8 drive through meal that they put on their card. People have to be responsible for their own spending. As others have smartly put it "if you can't afford it, don't buy it." I was told never to use a credit card for things like restaurants, movies, groceries, etc... because you're still paying for it long after it's gone.
