Bank of (anti) America

One day I expect to look in the dictionary and find Bank of America listed under Crony Capitalism. This is a company that posted quarterly loss after loss when the government bailed them out. This banking giant, despite the fact that they had just received a $25 billion dollar bail out, agreed to purchase Merrill Lynch. After realizing how staggering Merrill Lynch losses were, Bank of America then decided to back out of the deal. However, according to sworn testimony our government threatened to remove the banks board of directors and management if they didn’t complete the purchase of Merrill Lynch. After receiving over $100 billion in taxpayer bailouts and having a Treasury Secretary threaten to remove top executives if they didn’t run the bank correctly, I really wonder who is in charge here.
Fast forward to 2012 and find Bank of America telling McMillan Firearms Manufacturing (after doing business with BofA for 12 years), that they no longer wanted McMillan as a client. Why? Because they were in the firearms manufacturing business. When does a bank turn down profitable business?
I believe that EVERY American who believes in the U.S. Constitution should close their personal and business accounts at Bank of America. If you own guns or not, it does not matter. This bank is in cahoots with an administration who is set on taking away our second amendment rights.
Remember, Bank of America was one of the first financial institutions to allow illegal aliens to open checking accounts and get credit cards. They are knowingly aiding illegal aliens who have broken our immigration law. BofA has also removed American Flags from their locations for fear of offending customers. I question the kind of America Bank of America is promoting.
Is this the type of company you want to do business with? It is these ‘little’ things that are coming together to rob us our freedoms as American citizens. Do the right thing, do not bank with Bank of anti-America.
I do not do business with any bank. I am a member of a local credit union. I only keep in enough money in case of emergencies. I have become distrustful of any institutions. Government has their hands in all of the financial institutions pockets. Remember the rule, those with the most money and power, make the rules. I am a gun owner and proud of that fact. I will not stand idle while they whittle away my rights. This Country was running fine until the current Administration took over. We will run fine again when we vote them out in November. I tell all my friends, gun owner or not, if they are permitted to take away one amendment, they will eventually take away them all. We have a President that when confronted with a crisis, signs an executive order and does it they way he wants. Congress should have taken action against him the first time he did this. It is like a small child, if you take away something they really want (not need), they throw a fit. Then to appease them, you give it back or in general, let them have their way. Why do we keep apologizing as a Nation and keep being politically correct? I am sick and tired of this Country being so passive. At one time, in the not so distant past, we were looked upon with admiration and fear. Most Countries did not want to awaken our wrath. Now they just make jokes about us and burn our Flag. Then, the President, apologizes and gives them money we don’t have. Mind boggling.
The Anti-BoA doesn’t stop there when it comes to crony capitalism. When the Keystone Pipeline was blocked, what state did all the lobbying against it… Nebraska; a Warren Buffett kingdom. Who recently bought stake in the railroad that would do the majority of the transportation if the pipeline was blocked?… Warren Buffett.
Who owns $5Bil. in BoA stock?… You guessed it.
It’ll get worse if Obama’s re-elected.
why isn’t the Tea Party making noise about arizona law that should be here in Ca. also, illegal is illegal, it is not undocumented alien.
We need to point to every Democrat Legislator, who supported Gov. Browns insane budgt, without any reduction in overtime to the prisons.Did you know the Gov. could not do a audit of the hours worked because I heard 32 out of 33 prisons do not have time clocks to keep track of time and hours. also, we need to address the unfunded pensions for the state employees, and being able to save your sick time, vacation time and get out with all those hours added for retirement and income at your highest rate of pay, which is when you retire. this practice must be terminated state wide.no one is saying anything. we need to organize and start talking to peop;le
This will split the European Union away from the USA and the Federal Reserve alliance thats been in place since the end of WW2 and was the foundation for the dollar as world trade currency . Once This BRIC/ China alliance is formed with France the PIIGS and they are formally trading with the Yuan instead of the dollar the dollar bond traders will leave the dollar for the Yuan and the dollar will devalue like a rock !!! Get Ready for a Wall Street Crash because This is how the USA Parts Supply Shortage will become our Hyper inflation event .
New French Socialist President Seeks to Unite with BRIC and End the Dollar , this guy will sell his fellow country men and women down the river to the BRIC Nations once they gain control of the entire European Union and break the Alliance with the USA thats been in tact since WW2 .

I believe given the talk here in this link about using the free market to De-Develop the USA , http://cnsnews.com/node/75388 , out sourcing was part of the plan to make the USA Dependent and Breakable , so what will happen here is all our Equipment , Case International Harvester , Caterpillar , John Deere , ford new Holland , plus all the car manufacturers , plus all the After Market parts suppliers like NAPA , Oriellys , , all these Manufacturers Import ALL the Parts they assemble their equipment with . We will see these parts become almost unattainable when the dollar loses its reserve currency status as these BRIC Suppliers who we Import our parts supplies all together reject the dollar exchange at the rate we have been operating at . Our result will be much like Iceland’s in 2008 was , only way bigger a civil unrest because Iceland was only 98,000 people , we are 311,000,000 and reducing their level of abundance will be way bigger a deal than what it was in Greece or the other PIIGS countries that tried austerity only to reject it and vote for the Socialist like they did in France hoping for a return too their abundance , but it won’t happen as the BRIC nations are only gathering them for the Slaughter later , we have seen this before in that region First you promise them the moon for control over the resources only to bait and switch to the oppressive famine and strife that depopulation is all about . And this is not a conspiracy they are talking about this today as a remedy for Earths salvation , like a Collective Salvation you know !!!

I will not resort to ANY boycotts!
Granted, I am pro second amendment!
But boycotting American businesses is absolutely inappropriate at this time!
Give me a foreign business the USA deals with and find something they have supported which is against our principles, and I will think about a boycott.
CHINA FIR INSTANCE.
But overall, this is ridiculous.
“I will not resort to ANY boycotts!

WHAT “American” business are you talking about. Certainly not BoA I hope, simply because of the NAME. Capital in the globalized economy flows to wherever it will get the greatest returns and just because a huge corporation or bank has “America” in it’s name, don’t foolishly believe that it wouldn’t sell out its namesake in a microsecond if it were profitable to do so.

Why am I not surprised to hear this about BoA? I knew all about BoA 25 years ago when I was in the navy. I saw what they were doing in foreign countries, supporting politicians who were enemies to the US, supporting companies stealing intellectual property from US companies, etc. There is nothing American about BoA. Its not about boycotting. Its about voting with our feet and our money. Some so-called American companies are more than happy to boycott you. You should be aware of that. BoA should get some kind of award for being the first anti-American American company.
