MODERATORS
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.
Sure, but any merchant fee will just be added on to the price of products now, so everything will be priced higher.
Look in all honesty you are probably right.
