Unlikely. Until the penalties affect consumers/voters en masse, it's highly unlikely to ever change. Even if it did, a few congressional hearings would lull voters enough to not care any longer. The only hope is that fraud becomes so expensive for the card folks that they actually enforce this themselves. Obviously that hasn't happened for all, but maybe they are making progress?
