>This creates in effect a massive money transfer from the poor
I'm always a little confused on exactly HOW this plays out. I could see someone with terrible credit being denied, but most cash back cards I use are hardly gated / limited to "rich folks only".
I feel like the reasons / the way it plays out are more complex than the results. And really if someone is poor, struggling to pay their card, that's a larger issue than the type of card they use.
I'm just not sure reward cards = "This creates in effect a massive money transfer from the poor" as simply as stated.
