Take your money out of Big Banks and put it in a small community bank or credit union!! If your money is in a Big Bank you are part of the problem. Tell small business owners to do the same!!! The only way they will listen!

What is a Credit Union?

A credit union is a member-owned, not-for-profit, cooperative financial institution. Credit unions:

* Provide the same products and services—including surcharge-free ATMs, online financial services, and free savings and checking accounts—as other financial institutions
* Return their profits to their credit union members by providing better services, better rates, lower fees and special discounts
* Operate under the philosophy of “people helping people,” allowing their members to pool their savings, lend to one another, and own the organization
* Follow conservative investment practices and lend responsibly

Is not working yet! You need to pull your money out to a smaller institution. When that happens they will take away, ATM fees, reduce interest rates, and beg you for your business. Tell small business owner to the their money out, This banks have to close!

You have it all wrong. It's mostly the small community banks that the taxpayer should be protesting against.
