- kktkti9 5y agoCreditors CAN accept them because states do not disallow it. The point is taking the language in that document literally is a ridiculous exercise. The men that wrote it had barely discovered electricity. We romanticize the achievements of morons.
- taejo 5y ago> Creditors CAN accept them because states do not disallow it. The document says the states cannot force creditors to accept payment by card, and they don't. I'm not trying to romanticize the constitution, and I agree that parts of it are pretty moronic. I don't really have an opinion about this section either way, but my point is that it is in force as it stands, literally.
