  1. ## Bankcards Surcharge Beatups

    Everything regarding the ban on #CardSurcharges can be simply understood by asking one simple question: “Who *profits* from such bankcard use and the charges it attract s?”

    There you go… **BANKS**. That’s it.

    All issues and underlying problems regarding the recent bankcard fees ban can fairly be laid at the feet of #Bankers. It is their relentless pursuit of profits (betting on late payments and interests on top of the charges levied to businesses and customers alike), as if they don’t make enough as it is.

    There is no point in blaming anyone else at all. Of course news media will blame govt because that what’s right-wing propaganda does, parroting the lies of #Misdirection by #Rentiers and their puppets to focus our attetntion away from the real issue here, #Rentier #Avarice and the #Redistribution of #Wealth to the wealthy few.

    Oh, and all the noise about leaving thousands without means to pay their tax bill. That’s a shoddy one. Another furphy from the propaganda machine. Every business operates a bank account. Just about everyone with a mobile has a Banking App installed, and everyone knows what an #EFT is. That’s how I’ve been paying my tax bills for decades. Give us all a break #ABC.

    I can just imagine the #Treasurer’s frustration in having to pary all those cheap shots from stupid news hounds.

  2. My (German) wife sent flowers to a family friend in the town where she grew up. As she knew the florist, a phone call was all that was required to send the flowers. He sent an invoice through, and I used the ability in #Starling Bank's app to send money to overseas accounts. The exchange rate was OK, but the charge of £5 was a bit high considering we were sending 55 EUR. The real problem came at the other end. #RaiffeisenVolksbank took 23 EUR out of the 55 EUR amount for "handling" the transaction. They are literally robbing us - f**king #bankers
    I have now sent another 25 EUR through #Wise - as that is transacted through a Belgian bank, we should be immune from the charges levied because the UK is outside the #EU.

  3. A word or two (quoted from Prof. Richard Murphy) on the nonsense of increasing the official #CashRate to stymie anticipated #inflation stemming from external uncontrolled events. Here, the European Central Bank is the guilty party but it holds true for all Central Banks.

    “This [ECB] move is meant to control inflation arising as a consequence of the war between the USA and Iran, as well as food shortages arising from that same war and drought. No one is suggesting there is excess demand in the Eurozone. However, inflation arising from excess demand, a phenomenon not seen in many economies for decades because so many people are having so many problems in making ends meet, is the only type of inflation that an interest rate rise can address.”

    Not only do we know all of this, but so do the #CentralBanks (they’re not stupid).

    “[…] increasing interest rates at this moment might be described as an act of economic illiteracy. It might also be described as class warfare based on economic aggression, because its purpose is, in reality, to deter those on wage income from seeking pay increases to maintain their economic positions, while those who profit from the price increases are left to enjoy their newfound and unearned riches.”

    Economic illiteracy or calculated monetary intervention to maintain unemployment and shift more wealth into the pockets of those least in need? #Bankers are not stupid. They know. The #Oligarchs creates a #war and we all pay for it while they reap insane #profits from it. And the Bankers think: ‘Why not let them moke more profits through #GreedFlation?’ We’re all screwed on this path… time for a real change, for a change.

    "David Einhorn wants ladies in ‘sexy party clothes’ at his hedge fund party

    Billionaire David Einhorn is throwing a party in New York this weekend to celebrate Greenlight Capital’s 30th anniversary.

    If you squint, the invitation looks banal. Predictable theme ('Vegas Nightclub'), less predictable location ('Brooklyn'). But then comes the fine print. The dress code, just for 'the ladies', is more exacting: 'sexy party clothes'.

    Yes, that’s right, Einhorn is openly telling women they better look hot or else to celebrate his hedge fund. You might think this is the invite for some frat party, instead of a multibillion-dollar money manager. You’d be wrong.

    Meanwhile men get a free pass.

    (. . .)

    We had a hunch the #MeToo era that smacked Wall Street in the face nearly a decade ago had already been subsumed by cobwebs, forgotten to the winds of pre-Maga times. Maybe you remember this lovely quote that went viral from main FT last year, not long after Trump took office:

    "Even the way people on Wall Street talk and interact is changing. Bankers and financiers say Trump’s victory has emboldened those who chafed at 'woke doctrine' and felt they had to self-censor or change their language to avoid offending younger colleagues, women, minorities or disabled people.

    'I feel liberated, said a top banker. 'We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without the fear of getting cancelled . . . it’s a new dawn.'”

    ➡️ “I used to think of the world as layers of power, layers of power stacked above me. The town, the county, the crown, the bankers and brokers and multinationals, the shadowy organizations behind and above them.”

    ➡️ “And I felt smothered by them, smothered! Unable to move, or breathe, resenting all that piled above me, weighing me down.”

  21. A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

    I believe that the recent course of our history has demonstrated that, while we may utilize their expert knowledge of certain problems and the special facilities with which they are familiar, we cannot allow our economic life to be controlled by that small group of men whose chief outlook upon the social welfare is tinctured by the fact that they can make huge profits from the lending of money and the marketing of securities — an outlook which deserves the adjectives “selfish” and “opportunist.”

    Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
    Speech (1932-05-22), Commencement, Oglethorpe University, Atlanta, Georgia

  23. "Men like Bil [Ackman], perfumed princes behind the high hedges, live in constant abject fear of the least incursion into their rigged game because they know deep down in their souls that if the situations were reversed, they’d be tearing down the walls to get their hands on the pelf themselves."

  24. "The mainstream media doesn’t want anything to change, ever. They want to keep people in fear and in thrall to corporate interests.

    The Democratic Party that can unlock the vast potential of this country and defeat the forces of racism and MAGA is not the Democratic Party that can win the endorsement of The New York Times editorial board."

  25. "The establishment is circling the wagons. They are terrified of a candidate who is not beholden to them. They are frightened that his priorities are not their priorities, that he wants to use a very very small tax on the very very richest New Yorkers to pay to ensure that the rest of the city could have decent lives."

  26. "The entrenched establishment—the rich and powerful in the US—have worked like crazy throughout the Boomer years to grow their power and influence so that they would never be put at risk by anything so small or annoying as an election.

    This reveals a fundamental tension in all societies that is particularly acute in democracies."
