Pass federal USURY laws so that lending companies have to honor the rates set by the states in which the CONSUMER live (instead of where the banking business is organized since some states do not have any usury limit).

After all of the bailouts, TARP, etc., it seems that Obama and Congress are just spending $ that we don't have like drunken sailors. Shouldn't there be more focus on creating jobs, and improving the economy?
