To be more on the side of the consumer (individual). - At present, banks are trying to sell to consumers, at a separate cost, programs for consumers to monitor their own credit card records. I feel that the banks need to take more responsibility. Not to make more money at the expense of consumers and not to gain monetary advantage out of the current mess. - I hope the New Yorker magazine will have their financial reporters write about the April 2007 meeting. Also, the Charlie Rose program on TV. Thank you, Marina Marson</body></html>
