christain credit cards or usury .

usury is not encouraged in the bible. Why do so many people pay intrest (usury ) on even eatting lunch.
Paying cash up front or doing without is forgotten.
With credit card companies robbing so many with usury intrest rates, it takes the average family to make 100k a year to live like they make 25k. Paying 70% of there income to usury payments to the rich.
One rich man told me once, the only intrest i like is the intrest they pay me. He says, i pay no intrest.
We have one freind who owes 40k in credit cards, and only pays the minuim payment, if they live to 99 they will have things payed off, and would have payed 20 times that in usury .

Point made, but 70% of income paid for interest for average family??? I don't think so.

Credit cards are a good thing if you pay them off every month. I travel free about half the time because of points from credit card spending. But I don't carry any balances.
