Really? You're one of those people? Most places it's $8/month or less, and it's usually waived if you maintain a min balance, get direct deposit, or have a line of credit. Sorry, but it's still a private enterprise. If you don't like it, you could relocate to any of a number of Islamic nations. I'm pretty sure usury violates the Quran.
