1. It may not be enough to hurt the bank...

But it will most assuredly get their attention.

2. MUWAHAHAHAHA!

I went down yesterday for a bit. What struck me was the diversity of the people. Young, old, kids... It was great!

3. THAT'S THE SPIRIT!

5. Impressive - and something that's sure to grow!

6. I love the idea of this.

Suck money out of BOA and I BET you will start to see some real change.

7. The week of October 23rd is a week of divestment. Let's take our money back from the banks.

Says Occupy Seattle.
Anyone here want to join them in spirit?

8. I just closed my account at SunTrust and opened one at a credit union.

Fuck their little $5 scum sucking fee. It's my money ...all $25,000! ps: got a new 8.9% fixed credit card too with the new credit union account.

9. Good for you! Sun Trust, last I looked, was not rated highly/well.

I just closed out our safety deposit box at our bank, now that new rules allow DHS to open it without even telling me, much less have my permission. Nothing in there but important papers, but still, the idea ALL bank information is now freely given to TPTB shivers my timbers.
