Why did we need a bill for something that was already "illegal"?
What a waste of time, energy and talent.
Could credit card companies not address this themselves?
Just not allow the transaction?
My guess is they weren't the ones complaining.
It was probably some bleeding heart who couldn't control their own
addiction that said, "I lost money, there should be a law." and unfortunately
in our society someone always listens.
That's just sad IMHO.
