    nice! I love when the government does good shit, but then they do shit like the under 16 social media ban, and I wonder what the fuck they’re smoking.

      This is good on paper, but all it means is retailers will add the fee on to the price, increasing prices across the board.

        The fee incurred by the merchant will also be reduced by way of the bank’s fee to them being capped.

        that’s true. When they pass things like this, the expectation is prices will go down. Prices never go down. it just means the retailers will get more of the profits :/
