From the Huffington Post news of 89 year old women tossing her virginity in her fight against the credit lending practices of the card companies….
~~~ John Clinton Tuttle of Seattle, Wash. is waging guerrilla warfare against high interest rates and other depredations of the credit card industry. He’s literally sticking it to ‘em — he’s launched a campaign to encourage angry consumers to put bank-bashing stickers on ATMs.
“The credit card business is unethical,” said Tuttle, 60, who told HuffPost he put 40 stickers on ATMs in Seattle last Thursday.
The stickers say “Stand up to the rich bankers!” and direct ATM customers to Tuttle’s website, www.creditcardrevolt.com, where he makes the case for five basic reforms for the credit card industry, including a 15 percent interest rate cap, better disclosure of rates and fees, and clearer contracts.
Tuttle enlisted the support of Georgie Bright Kunkel, who stars in three YouTube videos promoting the site.
In one video, Kunkel, 89, swings a baseball bat, saying, “We can put an end to these evil, evil lending practices!” In another, she posts a flier on a Bank of America ATM.
“I’ve never posted a flier in my entire life. It’s my first time!” says Kunkel in the video. “That makes me a flier-posting virgin!”
