I had the misfortune to be reminded today that in the US it is still common to pay fees on domestic bank transfers. Not actually the biggest current issue in the US, but... seriously?

(context for those of you in the US: while cross currency transfers or 'instant' transfers can incur fees in the UK/EU, in general you can make a free transfer to anyone with a bank account in the same currency if you're willing to wait 1-3 working days)
