ParticipantI’m about to dump my bank (wells fargo) for a credit union.
Got charged a $15 service fee for not having a high enough balance ($500 is the apparent minimum). Seriously, if it costs them $15 a month to maintain a checking account, they are an inefficient piece of crap.
The beauty of capitalism is I can vote with my dollars against ridiculous fees. Bye bye, WF!

ParticipantFunny, never actually used Craigslist for a car.

ParticipantYou know what, at least I’ll give the new UK government credit for having the balls to increase taxes while making cuts. In the US we have one party that believes the budget can be balanced with spending cuts alone and one that doesn’t really care about even trying.

Participant[quote=eavesdropper]I’d say that sociological pressures are the more likely reason for the female domination of teaching and nursing. Up until the early 70s, discrimination based on sex was common and absolutely legal…[/quote]
True, although bear in mind that people who were entering the workforce in the early 70s are now in their 60s and rapidly approaching retirement. Obviously there were attitudes that carried down from parents, but no one under 40 today was even alive in 1969 and no one under 50 was past grade school.I’m kind of a fan of gender segregated classrooms. My knowledge of the research is that both boys and girls learn math better in a gender segregated environment.
