Banks Controlling Credit card Purchases

It was the day before March Madness 2008 begins so I kept some time open to examine the brackets and make a small wager on teams I like, that was, until my credit card was denied.

I just contacted Household Bank, my credit card company, in regards to their denying my $100.00 deposit into an online sports wagering site. I spoke to a customer service representative who told me that several credit card companies have blocked using credit cards for gambling. Even though I have excellent history with them, I am not responsible enough to decide where and how I wish to spend my money.

I am appalled at this ludicrous debauchery dictating where and how I wish to spend my money. This is a cross between socialism and dictatorship and although this particular agenda may not inconvenience those who are not sport enthusiasts, it is a sign of where this country is headed. It is becoming more and more a liberal dictatorship. This country was founded under God and the Declarations of Independence was signed under God. God is under attack as well but it is a much larger issue because thankfully, there are still many believers and worshipers of God. This is the master plan; to eliminate God, build government, and socialize this great nation. Quelling online wagering by blocking credit cards is just another victory and step in conquering our freedom. This may seem like an extreme example, but is it really? Every holiday there is an attack on God and the bible. Homosexuality, an obvious abnormality, is being promoted by the media and Hollywood. Drugs and porn are still increasing with no sign of relief.

I cannot wager with a reputable company online but I can join porn sites and buy from online drug dealers with no problems. How does this make sense?
The truly twisted hypocrisy gambling is on such a rise in America. There are casinos opening everywhere. I guess it is alright because once again, governments (Fed, state, & local) are raking in profits.
I mean if we want to regulate people, let’s start shutting their cards off at restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Obesity is the biggest problem we face and while all these obese persons sit around making decisions about others, they fail to stop and look at themselves. My intentions are not to insult anyone. I am just searching for answers and see if anyone understands what I am saying. Look at the bigger picture here, if this is not a violation on our freedoms, then please outline to me, what is?

Listen even if you are not a gambler, this issue proves the control governments and banks are putting on us. Furthermore, the web is filled with porn.

How can credit cards be accepted at porn sites over a gambling site?

Why is America becoming so dependent on gambling? Local governments are passing and opening casinos across the whole country?

It is even hard to find a local bookmaker these days because they ran them all out but every other street corner a drug deal is going down. I understand gambling can be a serious problem for some but it is a back seat to many other legal vices. Alcohol has probably wrecked more families than anything; yet, I could go into a liquor store and max my credit card out. I can buy all the cigarettes I want, drinks at a night club, solicit prostitution through an escort service, and even purchase illegal drugs over the internet all with my credit card but I am unable to deposit a simple $100.00 to enjoy one of my favorite sporting events, March Madness.

Gambling is increasing growth every where in America yet, new laws prohibit online gambling. People do many things over and above what they should do but they are not controlled by where and how they spend their money. Credit card companies are trying to control our freedoms by not allowing participation in online wagering. We are in the biggest epidemic of house foreclosures because people over do things. People are losing homes because banks let them re-mortgage over their heads. So please do not tell me they are monitoring our credit card purchases for our own good.

If you understand my passion and want to keep America free, powerful, and the land of opportunity, please don’t just read this article, write your own. Let’s start being heard so we can maintain our freedom and keep our country safe under God. Too many lives were sacrificed from great men and women to get America where it is today. Don’t turn your backs, stand up and keep America great.
