Banks declare huge profits

Australians are feeling ripped off as the Big four banks  who have a monopoly  are increasing the  interest rates out of tune of the RBS rate increases , even when they dont need too and are declaring huge profits.

"The banks are a bunch of greedy thieves, ripping off Australians trying to live the dream of owning their home," said the Victorian senator Senator Steve Fielding.
