A credit card nation
Last year in US, credit card companies spent $6 billion dollars to promote their credit cards services, a 16% increase from the previous year. Each month, an average adult received 6 unsolicited credit card application forms, and 0.3% of people do apply for them.
Heard from CBSnews, April 30th, 2006.

Im was sick of high cost advertisement campaigns, all the while hiking up rates. Kaiser had a commercial on TV and the radio every hour, on every station yet can charge me two hundred bucks a month for barely mediocre coverage with no prescriptions..
