The point is---PENNIES matter!!!! They matter enough for them to get rid of the discount!!!
The worrying trend is that everything is going this way and cuts are being made everywhere- always to OUR detriment. 5% here, 10% there all add up very quickly and it will only get worse as the companies in Dubai, who have been used to 40%, 70%, 100% returns look to keep the money coming in.
In the end WE will pay for it.
