on the news today, there was a discussion about hackers, and no one’s information is truly safe.

the worse kind of identity theft is using one’s credit history, credit cards, name, address, etc. and pursuing things without the person’s consent. this has happened, to many i know, and i’m wondering, if because of the bad economy this kind of identity theft will continue.

It seems to me like the interest rates that they charge are absolutely unbelievable. Especially when they slip it past someone on page 28 of their “rights” package.
However, I wonder about the public’s lack of financial education and how much responsibilty a person has to take for their own actions.
I’m taking an economics course now and it seems like, when reading the basics of capitalism, that a lot of it really seems to depend on consumer’s being rather, frankly, dumb.
Does the Government have a place in “protecting” people, or is this really an example of “buyer beware”?
