Joe Biden against “garbage collection”
One of the elements that attracted the most attention of observers was the statement of the president, who very bluntly announced the fight against the so-called “junk payments”.

As an example, the president cited airline fees, which add additional amounts for certain services, as well as credit card service costs.
