So I have realized that once you put money in to a bank account, it isn't yours anymore, it is theirs.
Which another confirmation of the truth I have worked out in the last year: money is bull#!

The banks do what they tell you they will do, your signing the contract / agreement / terms of use gives them permission to by you.
Maybe if people just learned to read stuff before they sign it they wouldn't be taken by surprise, better yet they might know better than to even do business with them at all.
Lastly, they always reserve their right to make changes on a whim whenever they want without consulting you.
Banks are the biggest joke that was ever pulled on mankind, and most people I know seem to be convinced that they are somehow necessary.

I've been saying forfriggingever that all of the dollars in existence belong to the federal reserve. They create these pieces of paper and they own them. That's why people must borrow their "product" and then pay interest on the loans with money that is NOT created except by someone else's borrowing from that same private, for profit corporation. Its a Ponzi scheme to the nth degree.
One guy puts it like this, any five year old kid knows that if you put ten marbles in a tin can and shake it up you can still only ever get ten marbles back out. The usury banking system takes the eleventh marble out of the hides of those who borrow their money. And that includes the government, which is totally anti-godlin since they are the ones who signed onto private for profit banking with the federal reserve act. Like they didn't know what would happen. Somebody actually voted for such imbeciles?
But there are things we can do to upset their applecart:

Frazzle,
I'm sorry but please don't start up with the Federal Reserve stuff again.
We are talking about Bankers in this thread, and the policies of individual banks,
not Bernanke.

There are 12 federal reserve banks in the US. Are you saying your friendly neighborhood banker isn't joined at the hip to them or that individual bank policies aren't dictated by the big 12?

As long as you are willing to admit their only connection is at the hip,
then my work in separating the issues is done.
Bernanke has been keeping countless municipalities afloat by buying their Bonds,
something the megabanks seem reluctant to do. Even going so far as to have
their financial-show talking-heads criticize Bernanke about it, and trying to force him
to "tapper off."
Something he has admitted being willing to do, if it is right. But the megabanks are not stepping in to pick up any of the slack. And just when they have record surpluses of cash on hand.
Hmmmm. I think the banksters want to pick up entire municipalities for a $1 at the police auctions after they go bankrupt.

In my estimation
out of all the corrupt banks and bankers,
only Bernanke himself is actually on our side.
I think TPTB forked up and put an honest man in the position to take the fall,
thinking we couldn't tell the difference.
