GREAT Way To Stick It To Repug Banks-FIND A CREDIT UNION!

[K8-EEE]

Credit Unions for the most part contribute to Union/working class political causes. Banks for the most part contribute to Corporate Welfare Politics.

You might be surprised to find that you can join a credit union. I've banked through the First Entertainment Credit Union here in L.A. for over 10 years and it's just like a regular bank, but your money works for US.

Check it out and consider yanking your cash from the evildoers. Any discernable switch over will freak them out for sure!

2. I would never leave my credit union for a bank

They offer everything a bank does including mortgages and car loans and it's a not for profit. The people who work for the credit union are great and are paid well but the people at the top are not getting rich. In short, the credit unions perform a great service and they don't exploit their customers the way that banks do.

Everyone should try to find a credit union that they can join.

3. Banking industry to benefit from any SS reform

so says a critic of Bush this morning (? Carter).
Banking industry was, as you say above a big contributor to Bush campaign. It is Bush's payback

4. I just did this month. Best decision I ever made!

I got tired of leaving my money in an institution that seemingly tries to figure out ways they can add fee's to everything to screw poor people out of money.

If there is one near you, join! They love to hand out money!

5. I'm looking into it now!

My bank got swallowed by Bank of America. The very thought of my dollars being in their hands makes me shudder.

So I'm looking into one of the local credit unions. I wasn't thinking of it as a blow to Republicans, but you're right! We should start a join a credit union movement! Something the Republicans will notice!
