		<description>The average interchange fee in the U.S. is seven times the interchange fee set by Visa and MasterCard in countries throughout the rest of the world. Using 2008 figures, if the interchange fee charged by credit card issuers was decreased (via comprehensive credit card reform legislation) from the current 2.10% to 0.60%, the result would be an annual savings of approximately $34.3 billion for U.S. merchants and consumers. Credit card issuers could retain 0.3% as a processing fee, the remaining 0.3% could be a &quot;tax&quot; used to fund a Natural Disaster Trust Fund (NDTF). In 2008, this would have generated $6.86 billion in funding for a NDTF.</description>

		<description>Vowed this and vowed that... blah, blah, blah - All I hear is &quot;vote for me&quot; meaning &quot;I&#039;ll keep my fat job, my fat pay, my terrific lifestyle, and Everything (for me) will be great&quot;.
