Dora the Explorer on Debit Interchange: Swiper No Swiping!

posted by Adam Levitin

Nancy Reagan taught us to "Just Say No!"  Now Dora the Explorer tells us some words of wisdom about uncompetitive debit card swipe fees:  "Swiper No Swiping!"  Swiper is the incorrigibly rapacious fox who is always trying to steal stuff from Dora and her friends. I'll let the metaphor speak for itself. (And what could that crown represent, Simon Johnson?) Consider it a modern tale from Aesop.  

  

[Update:  This is too good to be true.]  

Less than family-friendly beneath the break...

As the parent of a three year old who's seen more than my share of Dora, hilarious. And my daughter loved it too!

Bankr-L is administered by one of the Credit Slips bloggers, Professor Robert M. Lawless of the University of Illinois.
