Abuse of Power -- Operation Choke Point

[kandrathe]

Ah, those poor banksters and capitalists. If only Big Gubbament would just stay out, all would be well!!

It's government(DOJ / FDIC) coercion on banks to close the accounts and refuse to do business with everyday people. There is no law, court, or due process here. It purely the whims of some out of control bureaucrats with little recourse by the people affected other than to attempt to do business elsewhere, until there is no place left that will serve you. Get the message. They don't want your kind around here.

BTW, the banks are doing fine by this -- rather than that broke guy getting a payday loan, he ends up paying $35 per bounced check to the bank instead of the $30 interest/fees on the short term loan (14 days) to the payday lender.

Maybe people will care when the targeted industries hit closer to home. It's ironic that we first heard about it from strippers -- you know, the undesirables. Who is next? What if the next administration has a different set of "undesirable" industries to target. As the member of a minority political movement, I'd have thought you might be more sensitive to vague targeting/coercion/suppression of minority groups outside the "rule of law", especially so since your group has been targeted very recently and used as an excuse for world wide war.
