You can pay a fee (it's under settings, main, Pay transaction Fee) and then it goes much faster but if i wanted to pay banking fees i'd just use a bank.
There is no free lunch in this world. The block subsidy will continue to decline (as there is a limit on max number of Bitcoins) and fees will play an increased role in suporting the cost of running the network.
Let me know when your bank allows you to wire an unlimited amount of money anywhere in the world in an hour with a cost of $0.01 or less.
