Great post by Felix Salmon in response to a blog post he wrote advocating regulation of bank fees. Did you know that banks charged $38 BILLION dollars in annual over draft fees? Holy shit. - Jennie Lin

"I wrote that the banks “should be stopped”. In response, Fernando says that “we need to keep holding people responsible” and that “some people just need to manage themselves better”. But here’s the difference: stopping banks is, conceptually, possible. But the $38 billion in annual overdraft fees are clear proof that Fernando’s “people” just aren’t going to magically start managing their finances in an optimal manner." - Jennie Lin via Bookmarklet
