I don’t get it.
Dont feel bad. Some people are just born stupid.
Okay, edit: a very big /S , because modern internet.
Every time I’ve put money in a bank, I’ve gotten out more than I put in. Where’s the “robbery”?
overdraft fees for one.
you can google and fine some pretty fucked up shit the US banks do to the most vulnerable people, like changing the order the transactions are processed in so that they can hit people with overdraft fees.
Money printing. Larger amounts loaned out every year devaluing all existing dollars. The number might be higher but it counts for less. Official inflation figures don’t even cover it since they don’t count things people actually try to use to store wealth.
Predatory lending. Overdraft fees. Minimum balances. Setting due dates on holidays and and weekends, then refusing to process payments for a three days prior to the due date. Opening lines of credit for people with mental handicaps. Fixing their books. Lying to regulatory agencies.
in capitalist America, the bank robs you!
