Before You Max Out Your Credit Cards

I don’t know how many of you belong to Co-Op America (if not you should) but their latest newsletter contained a really good article about the banks that issue credit cards. What was especially interesting was the many affinity cards that are issued by banks with totally different politics than the groups that we are trying to support. It also contains some suggestions for credit card issuers whose politics are a bit less revolting. Seems like a simple way to put your money where your mouth is.

When I couldn’t find the article online I wrote to them and asked about forwarding it and the Associate Editor, Andrew Korfhage, kindly put it online for me! Please pass this along. Here is the link to the article:
