3. Credit union or a regional/foundation owned bank
I bank at the latter and have for years. The foundation ain't gonna let them be acquired by anyone because of the terms it was all set up under.

4. BOFA Closures
I have a mortgage loan with BOFA and it has been a continuing problem. After I applied for a mortgage loan modification, they foreclosed on our home. I have been involved with a negotiation with them since that time. They are difficult to work with since they only give a phone number, and you always speak to a different person. They design their system to keep you in a constant state of confusion. This bank has to go down!

5. We'd better get a stomach for this and worse...
I think BOA is a POS company, as are many of the giants, but if we get our way, in many things like banking, brokerage, and true single-payer universal health coverage, we are going to see hundreds of thousands of jobs lost almost overnight. Sometimes things have to hurt to get better I guess.

6. I wouldn't worry about it
The demand is there, it's being suppressed by the lack of dollars in the system.

If they wanted to, the Gov't could have 100% employment tomorrow at living wage rate. The fact that they don't is a lack of will, not ability.
