my credit union gives me free everything as long as i keep a minimum balance of $250 across all accounts (LOL).
it's a non-profit owned by members and it has no reason to "be fucking" with any of us.

those ignorant of economics are incapable of successful free enterprise
i mean, the ignorant are fucked in every possible way, not just in business-- they spend money they don't have in things they don't need, they get into debt without end and pay interest through the nose, they pay fees for everything from cashing checks to late-payment credit/utility fees, and when they purchase financial products they purchase the worst kind of them (e.g. whole life insurance).
ignorance is an illness and it needs to be cured b,ut as long as people keep blaming some invisible power for their ignorance they will never be able to take charge of their own finances. and they will die in misery.
