Senate Housing Bill Requires Credit Card Spying

The Senate Housing Bill sponsored by Senator Dodd has a surprise buried deep within its recesses - a requirement that every financial transaction that is processed will be sent to the federal government. Yup - EVERY transaction.  You bought a book online - the government will know.  You donated to a cause with a credit card - the government will know.  You sent your daughter 100 bucks with Paypal to pay for books at college -- you get the idea.

Read it and weep - then start complaining to your senators, wherever you live.
