It is sadly not a satire article and comment section there has taken it quite seriously as well.

I would have posted an archive.org snapshot instead but the latter refuses to crawl the site due to pay wall restrictions.

Loads of regulations related to banking

Ehhhhh I would say quite a few banking regulations are there for good reasons. But I'm not a banker, so maybe I'm missing a lot.

You apparently missed the fact that I put that in both sections 😁

There's tons of regulations that are absolutely necessary and others that are bad and lock people in to bad things.

Example: It's impossible for someone to start their own competitor to Visa/MasterCard due to the regulations!
