It's Them, Not Me: Thanks to the GRBs

Received news from my bank that starting this month, the interest rate for my debit card account goes from two-and-a-half percent to one-and-a-half percent for the first $15,000.  I'm not happy at all about this.  This is the only place us regular folk can earn anything even approaching a decent interest rate any more.

The only reason I got a debit card was for the interest.  If it drops another one percent, I'm going to drop it altogether.

The government sticks it to us so that the GRBs can have plenty of money to invest so they can get 20-30% return on their investments.  After all, it was the GRBs that got us into this economic funk in the first place, now, we have to give them the chance to get the money back.  Supposedly, they will reinvest and make jobs for regular folk, but mostly, they just keep it.
