Is it just me but aren't these interest/APR rates a little high? Is this normal for AMEX?

Nope looks normal. Carrying a balance/paying interest on a credit card is financially one of the dumbest things you can do

I don't think people in this bowl should care about credit card APRs???

My CSR has a similar rate. If, for some reason, I don't think I can pay off a balance, I won't use any rewards card unless they have a special offer.

No. You should NEVER carry a balance on a CC. If you need a card to do that
