I mean, if you keep getting robbed by the same guy, in the same alley, and you could easily avoid that alley, but you don't and you know you will get robbed when you go down there, then yes. Sooner or later you're not actually being robbed. You're giving the guy money presumably because you like the service he offers?

I am all for clearer labeling etc. The few who legitimately don't want to go overdrawn should be offered all the assistance possible.

I just think we need to acknowledge that 40% admit they choose this and another 40% choose it but won't admit it...

Or rather, there is a robber at every alley, because there is no law that prevents robbing, and no enforcement of the laws that exist. In that society, if you have a gun but aren't robbing people, you're giving up money. What are people without guns gotta do?
