It's Always Christmas Time...for Visa

Consumers Union has brought back their holiday video called "It's Always Christmas Time...for Visa." This hilarious animated short is quickly becoming the "Miracle on 34th Street" for the credit geek crowd! It is part of the Consumers Union campaign for Congress to pass credit card reforms. The chorus is my favorite part:

It's always Christmas time for Visa
Mastercard gets presents every day
They're happy as can be when we Discover 'neath our tree
The finance charge that never goes away
It's always Christmas time for Visa
The lenders feel the splendor and the cheer
The interest that they're making is the gift that keeps on taking
And leaves us buried deeper every year

Watch the video for free online or can download the song in mp3 format by clicking on this image: 12240_1












Once you're done watching, you can send a letter about credit card reform to your representatives using the handy message generator provided by Consumers Union.
