When they raise the interest rate it should apply only to new purchases.
The maximum interest they can charge needs to be lowered. 18% anyone?
Longer grace periods. Lets go to 31 days minimum.

No more ARM or interest only mortgages.
Only 15 to 30 year fixed.
Require at least 10% down. 20% for people that have owned homes before.
Make renting furniture, and leasing cars illegal unless you own a business.
Have commercials that state that carrying a balance does nothing to benefit your rating. And that saving for the things you want is the best way to live.
