[Durbin, Marshall, Welch Call for Passage of their Credit Card Competition Act](https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/press/releases/durbin-marshall-welch-call-for-passage-of-their-credit-card-competition-act)
> “American consumers today are concerned about inflation and the high prices of groceries and gas. What they may not know is that the fees charged by Visa and Mastercard when they use their credit card, known as swipe fees, are adding to this problem,” said Durbin. “Merchants have no choice but to accept the outrageous fees if they want to accept credit cards used by their customers. Our bipartisan legislation, which has the support from a wide range of small business owners, would inject real competition in the credit card market. It is long overdue for Congress to break up the sweetheart deal that Visa, Mastercard, and the big banks enjoy. We must bring the bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act to the floor for a vote.”
> “Family's budgets are being stretched to the absolute limit with little room for error while Wall Street and the Visa-Mastercard duopoly line their pockets. But apparently, Visa-Mastercard's 50% profit margin is not enough. They are plotting their next payday, announcing they are hiking up their credit card swipe fees on merchants and consumers again this fall. I won't stand for these massive, wealthy corporations price-gouging small businesses at every turn. Visa and Mastercard's duopolistic, heavy-handed market practices have disproportionately hurt American families and small businesses for far too long. The credit card market is broken, and we have a solution to fix it. We must pass our bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act,” said Marshall.

That's how they make their money. Not actually making anything or doing anything useful, but in creating bottlenecks and then charging a fee for use or access to controlled assets or "professional services" that consist of them rubber-stamping paper. In other words, they're bridge trolls.
They make their millions taking fees off the top. They steal pennies from everyone.
The high levels control the printing of money (paper and digital) and just siphon off whatever they want.
What really matters is their ability to shut down payments to any group of goyim who steps out of line, or freeze the money of any individual bad goy. This'll become much easier once they fully ban cash.
