Comment Wish I could have lobbied away my bank's fees (Score 1) 382

Banks have been bilking customers on "fees" for years to the tune of billions. A legitimate claim comes around and they get to lobby their way out of it. Bah, I'd say turn about is fair play if they weren't gonna just use it as an excuse to raise fees for their customers. Any time a big money patent is mentioned it seems a knee jerk reaction to scream "Patent Troll!". As was mentioned the inventor has been battling for his fair shake in saving banks and (if they ever bothered to pass on the savings) their customers time and money. He's the little guy in this scenario. Seems if the patent system was actually set up to protect innovation this guy would get his due.
