Well if the business is raising its prices on all products because of card processers then you would be the fool paying for it without getting the 5% back.
They get their money mostly from interest rates and other means. It doesn't mean stores don't occasionally raise prices because of processing fees but that's not part of some grand conspiracy.
Or you know,live in any other country where they didn't have to do that because people aren't buttoned up the back
What? Nothing you said doesn't change the fact that what you think is happening isn't.
I truly don't even understand what this is trying to say.
