Ridiculous. I suppose I’m also making a wealth transfer when I buy in bulk while poor people can’t afford to, or I drive to a discount store while people with bad transportation options have to shop at an expensive local place, or I use a loyalty card.

The store still makes a profit on my purchase. My rewards are my own money coming back to me. I’m not sticking my hand in a poor person’s pocket just because I use a fancy card.
