Every month, thousands of working class New Yorkers use Western Union to send money to loved ones. Now Western Union wants to buy its top competitor, Intermex, so it can jack up remittance fees and squeeze families even more. Families shouldn’t pay the price for corporate monopolies.

Remittance is the term for money sent overseas to family back home.
Republicans have been trying to restrict and surveil easy ways to do cash transfers for ages, with democrats like Harris fully helping with such as KOSA.
They are *definitely* going to come for gofundme and venmo and such.

The funniest part is that the whole point of funding the crusades was to send your potential sources of domestic political instability (loud, violent lunatics) off on a mission where, worst case scenario, they were out of your hair for several years or, best case scenario, they died.
