Trace it down to increased consumer interests , added -on fees for checking and banking routine items, and taking it out of the pockets of the middle/lower economic class.

That 68 bill just did not just appear magically - someone had to pay for it and it sure wasn't out of the pockets and bonuses given to wall street manipulators.
