[quote=briansd1]jstoesz and flu, those usurious charges are not fees for service to pay for the machines and infrastructure.
Those usurious “fees” are entire billion-dollar business models.
That’s where your opinions don’t reconcile with science and data.
Notwithstanding the choices, the poorest of Americans are still being nickle and dimed and extorted. A decent society does not allow that to happen.
Banks are licensed to encourage proper allocation of capital and to encourage productivity in the economy. They should not be licensed to extort money from the most vulnerable of Americans.[/quote]
I think we’re deviating from the intent of this post…But last time…Again, brian…What part of “optional service” is not clear? When did using a debit card become a first amendment right? I know we live an a self-entitled society now… But when did modern day conveniences (when there are plenty of 0 cost alternatives ) become a right and not a privilege?
