Ending "Unfair, Deceptive and Predatory Practices" of the Credit Card Industry

Credit card bills out of control? While we can't do much to help lower your balance, there is a sliver of good news in the credit card industry: federal regulators have adopted new rules to protect consumers from things like arbitrary hikes in interest rates. The rules will also prevent credit card companies from placing unfair time constraints on payments and making deceptive offers of credit, among other protections. Will these changes end the so-called "unfair, deceptive and predatory practices" of the credit card industry?
