Fair interest on savings accounts

Force banks to pay reasonable interest rates on Savings Accounts.

Why is this important?

This may concern seniors the most but it should concern everyone. Banks make 6-8% on loans; we get .01% on our savings. The government encourages us to save to supplement Social Security but an average $8 a month isn't enough to buy dog food. I am most definitely personally affected by this absurd rate. I was a well paid executive before I retired. My pension "disappeared" and all I have left is some savings, These rates have forced me to live below the poverty level.
