Govt issued credit cards be instituted to fund human services.
Why is this important?
In my childhood, a purchase involved just me and the merchant. Today most transactions give a percentage to a credit card company (read wall street). This is like a 2-5 percent tax on every purchase. I suggest that the govt (fed and /or state) issue a visa type credit card to benefit human service spending on local food shelter and health programs. His would enable us to choose whether we want to to support our fellow citizens rather than the 1 percent wall street represents.
