And there we have it. Everything is racist even when it has nothing to do with race. Extra leg room charges!
He claimed that these initiatives will help fight inflationary pressures, when we all know that they simply increase the price of everything, the exact opposite of what he intends (as usual).
More pandering, but people of color probably not only see right through this, they are probably even insulted by it.
When I pay double for a first class seat, am I being discriminated against because I am a rich White guy? Hmmm.
How about instead of not allowing airlines to charge more for better seats, he does something substantive to substantially reduce the price of jet fuel, or scale back on the TSA.
What a truly incompetent administration we have, arguably the worst ever. If you voted for this, you should be ashamed.
'Look folks, these are junk fees are unfair and the hidden marginalized Americans the hardest, especially low income folks, and people of color.'
'There's a lot of money,' he insisted. 'These are billions of dollars. It doesn't add up to billions for the individual, but it adds up to $200, $300, $400 for average families.'
'It's wrong, it's ridiculous, it's unfair,' he said at one point, using the example of parents selling a used child's bike for $30, only to be hit with a $15 bank fee when the buyer's check bounces.
In another instance, Biden went after bank overdraft fees.
'You all know this, because you know this from your everyday lives,' he said, before laying out a scenario where a consumer writes a check to pay for a bill, but gets hit with an overdraft fee because the individual's account balance hadn't been updated.

Biden's air rage: President says airlines forcing customers to pay for extra legroom is RACIST because it hits 'marginalized Americans and people of color the most' - as he cracks down on 'excessive fees'
- 'Airlines if you want six more inches between you and the seat in front you pay more money, but you don't know it until you purchase your ticket,' Biden griped
- 'Look folks, these are junk fees are unfair and the hidden marginalized Americans the hardest, especially low income folks, and people of color'
- Biden also announced what should be a crowd-pleaser: the federal government going after bank overdraft fees, excessive credit card late fees
- Also taking on hidden hotel booking fees and termination fees cable and internet companies charge to prevent customers from changing services

Biden says airlines forcing flyers to pay for extra legroom is racist
Biden announced a new crackdown on what he describes as 'junk fees' to ease inflation pressures, including surprise legroom charges that he says affect 'low-income and people of color' the most.
