Today is the first day of the new credit card rules mandated by Congress. For the first time in our history, these companies must now offer to “lube up” and to take you out to dinner at a “mid-priced or better restaurant, no drive thrus, especially those that make you order from some sort of clown shaped device.” These new rules were praised by advocates on both sides of the aisle, including former republican senator Larry “Wide-Stance” Craig of Minnesota, who called it, “the least these companies could do- for years they treated you like you had just walked into a restroom at a Minnesota airport, not that there is anything wrong with that.”
