How else are the executive”s going to fund their multi-million dollar bonuses? They have no conscience, because they are robbing the poor to fund their greed. It”s been the American way, for way too long. Until the people wake up and start picking and choosing what the banks can do, they will continue to legally rob us. Those quarters and half dollars they collect at ATM”s and other fees and card services were created for more bonus monies. A bounced check doesn”t take any more of their time than a check you write and if it does I can guarantee it”s not 35 percent more. Look at the huge discounts the stores had at Christmas; those were part of the bonuses they get and they still got big bonuses. All at the expense of the good old American people. There are also the ones that cry the loudest when it comes to raising their taxes to help with our country”s needs. Visualize the banks working with the homeowners in the very beginning of the mortgage crisis. I bet 90 percent of the banks that folded would still be in business. This tells me that commonsense is a far greater asset then a college education, because they don”t look so smart right now! The American people have no advocate; we are not protected in this country. What a government. They only want our money and it”s because they take so much more than they need is the only reason our country survives, because it has been ill-run for way too long. Unfortunately, President Obama has had more dumped on him than half of all our past presidents put together and because of this he has been forced to further burden our debt. They will not get even a quarter from me, and until the American people unite to stop the greed, the madness will not end!
