    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. says the number of Americans who do not have a bank account fell to a record low of approximately 6.5 percent last year. That is down from 7 percent in 2015 and from a high of 8.2 percent in 2011.http://apne.ws/AYuBHZT

        Many employers are requiring a bank account for direct deposit. Not like people have a choice. Certainly isn’t because people trust bankers!

        Interesting. That means that no more than 6.5% of Americans don't have a government issued ID that would be needed to vote in the elections. Why can't we do voter ID again?

        I'm a teller and the number of people who've had accounts for 40 yrs and try to withdraw $$ without ID is astounding. Just cuz they have an account doesn't mean they have proper ID. This article doesn't necessarily mean that 93.5% of people have valid gov't ID for voting 🤷‍♀️

        If this only includes traditional banks, I hope it drops further. Much better to have an account with a credit union.

        Unfortunately, some people still don’t know they have one because @WellsFargo opened one up without telling them.
