I've walked into many semi-empty downtown brick and mortar banks with 5-10 idle employees, you want to continue paying that "innefficiency tax" in every transaction/loan/wire/credit-card/etc...?

I don't think people really think through the reason there is a 20% tax on financial activity that goes through traditional banking system.
