It's just a little off-putting and I understand they have costs, but maybe I'd rather see it in the price where it's something that's just hidden, rather than right in my face. :P

If I pay cash why should I have to pay for the cost of people who use a credit card?

This is a direct result of all that legislation passed to reform credit card companies and banks. Enjoy. Wait until you buy a new house and everthing that is associated with your closing has also gone up because of those same laws.
