Make everyone use cash again!
Wow, they just enacted the 22 cent cap on charge for debit card purchases, and they come back with this. This is pure silliness, and I hope people leave BOA (and citi, wellsfargo, etc). Maybe the government will sue them for this too, or enact another law.
This isn't a good move, it's further evidence of the so-called 1% making a point of keeping us beneath them. Consider the modern day life, how much is purchased on the internet, and so forth; this isn't a move to make everyone use cash, this is a move to ensure that our most popular method of commerce is now designed to help them pay their poor CEOs who have to sell their second house and only survive with 400k after feeding their families, etc.
This should be used as further momentum in the point that banks and Wall Street are overstepping their bounds; they should not be getting rich off our backs when they've done nothing to earn it (and, believe me, 'handling your money' when you're just using a checking account hardly constitutes earning it).
Occupy BoA? :D
