The credit card industry is purging accounts, shutting down just over 19% of their accounts in the past year. As you can see, that is a huge increase over past rates.

Since the industry is threatening further account contraction with the passage of the CARD act, so it looks like there will be less credit available to consumers in the future, whatever the reason.
