I’ll be glad for the people who are no longer debanked, but fundamentally banks have every right to decide who they do business with.
The prohibition should strictly be on the state from applying pressure towards banks to stop serving law abiding people.

I have been going back and forth on this. From a libertarian perspective, can these banks really be considered "private", or government entities? In many ways the banks are the state.

Yeah, it’s not exactly cut and dry. I’d rather try to address this real problem by creating more independence between banks and the state though.

Yep. Though if anyone was gonna do that it would have been Paul. I think abolishing the FED is a lost cause. Its one of the reasons why I'm so hopeful for bitcoin. Technology does a better job obsoleting the state than politics does reforming it.
Trump will continue to disappoint those that put their hope in him. At best we get scraps.
