Boycott US
Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Highest profit margin in the whole S&P 500? Visa/MC duopoly, like 70%!

Meanwhile Brazil has a 0% solution. Real card fees shouldn’t be 3%, should be IDK like 0.1% or something
I'm not aware of how payments work in Brazil, but in Denmark we've had a debit card that everyone uses and every store accepts. It's completely free for consumers, and stores pay way less for Dankort transactions than for credit cards, so it's a win-win.
The fees are insane to me. I do think it's fine for there to be some fee, they do provide an infrastructure and keep it up to date, but current fees are just insane for what they're providing.
