I listened to part of a speech by the president of Bank of America....and he was irate at the 99ers saying "don't shout at us, look at all the good we do".......I guess he just doesn't understand that BOA's job is NOT to do good, but to be a bank.....and he will never understand that if he honestly wants to "do good" the QUIT HOARDING CASH!!!! make the small business loans, work to keep people in their homes, adopt policies that create DEMAND and the economy will recover.....poor and unemployed people cannot participate in the economy and that is the issue....aside from the criminal enterprise known as Wall Street and their political puppets.

You may find this letter to the BofA interesting. It certainly points out the reinforcement of the Banksters method of operation that has been 'Privatize the Profits. Socialize the Losses'.
Message to Bank of America CEO: Your stock has tanked, don't lecture me!
Mr. CEO Moynihan, or should I say Mr. CEO $50 drops to $6 a share, has no business telling me I shouldn't complain about his lousy company.
Bank of America CEO Brian T. Moynihan scolded us customers, saying he was "incensed" at criticism of his bank.
Well Mr. CEO Moynihan, sir...did you notice that your stock has dropped from over $50 a share to about $6 a share? To me that marks YOU as a failure. Meanwhile, TD Bank, which did NO predatory lending and took NO taxpayer funded bailout money, has stayed about $70 a share through the entire time Bank of America tanked.
Seriously, Mr. CEO Moynihan, sir...do you have ANY right to be scolding ANYONE given the disgusting performance of your company?
So think about it. Mr. CEO Moynihan is CEO of a company that would be a penny stock or out of business if taxpayers hadn't bailed him out. So who gives a rat's ass if he is "incensed" at our anger?
Come back to me when you no longer need my tax money to just stay afloat. In a TRUE free market you and your lousy company would already be bankrupt, with companies like TD Bank buying up the remains of your assets at bargain prices. That is what TRUE capitalism would look like. Mr. CEO Moynihan, sir, you would be out of a job in a real free market. So stop whining and stop scolding and start showing some humility given the failure you represent.

docky, get a clue...the "protestors" are NOT asking for a bail-out...the are protesting the ownership of the government by the financial elite.....and if the mayors and governors that have turned on the movement do not prove this to you...you are beyond hope...

yes they are farley, they want a bailout for student loans and they want the government to put them to work .... it's just a distraction from the failed policies of the democrat administration....... move-on is funding this.... it's leftists that are involved in the movement..the nazis ,communist party usa , socialists and marxists are involved in it ...
where were these people way back when the tea party was protesting the bank bailouts ? senator obama voted yes to the bank bailouts..hell goldman sachs was a big contributor of his
unemployment has risen and is higher today than it was before obama took office and 46.2 million now live in poverty under this administration ....but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the protesters WILL NOT protest outside of the white house ..they don't want their choice in president to look bad ....meanwhile obama signs off on the biggest trade deal since NAFTA and allows the mexican trucks drive all over the USA ...fights illegal immigration laws passed by the states ... and racks up more debt and wants to spend more money ...
farley ,big government is a failure ...if you can't see that , just take a look at greece and spain ..... hell just look at the USA
