"vote" with your money
One of the easiest ways to act is to "vote" with your money (since they wouldn't let the real voting happen without fraud). If you have funds in any of the institutions below, switch accounts immediately to an institution not listed, preferably to a local bank or credit union. Justification for the following blacklist can be found at www.solari.com and there's a link below the list that will also explain what has been proposed.

- American Insurance Group
- Bank of America
- Bank of New York
- BBT
- Citibank/Citigroup
- Credit Suisse First Boston
- Deutsche Bank
- FleetBoston
- General Electric
- Goldman Sachs
- HSBC Bank
- JP Morgan Chase
- Mellon Financial Corporation
- Merrill Lynch
- PNC
- SunTrust Banks
- Wachovia Bank

1. Credit unions better than banks:some allow all in an area now:contact

your state credit union organization for info on your area's CU membership req'ments.

Less fees, and CU's probably dont donate to bush. Win-win.

Bush fortune began generations back "with a bank closure". Can anyone explain how that works?

Did 30's bank closings really happen due to bad loans, or were a percent just due to running off with the cash? What percent? Not talking about the Holiday.

How about a thumbnail history of bank practices over the last 2000 yrs, about two of these here screens long.

2. The bank closure was TRADING WITH THE ENEMY
Prescott sat on the board of Union Bank which financed Nazi war machine. He had enough pull that he was actually able to keep 1.5mil, which he used to finance GHWB's senate campaign.
