Proposal: Require banks to run our elections as a condition of their federal charter and FDIC membership. Their handling of ballots would be as strictly and uniformly regulated as their handling of money.
FDIC Law, Regulations, Related Acts ^ | Dec 4 2020 | rintintin

FDIC - member banks are heavily regulated for uniformity and integrity in their handling of money

The conduct of federal elections should be equally uniform and strictly regulated Why not assign federally charted banks the responsibility of running federal elections?

The “system” we’ve got now would shame many third world countries for its chaotic lack of organization, reliability, and integrity

Just a thought

I’d rather have the banks do it than Fulton County

Are you speaking of the same banks that push liberal social agendas and have been bailed out by the taxpayers?

My brokerage is highly efficient - if the people in power actually wanted honest elections it isn’t impossible. Of course, this would put the rats out of business so they’ll just continue screaming that some people are too stupid and scared to present ID...etc. Why does the GOP put up with this?

There is a clear need for election reforms.

I’m speaking of the banks that are required to keep track of my deposits and balance their books

Our ballots are not collected or counted with the legally-mandated care that our bank deposits are.

Holding clean elections isn’t rocket science. We simply haven’t got the collective will to do it.

Bankers who lose your money go to jail

Election officials who lose your ballot or count an ineligible ballot do home to dinner.

Brilliant!

Let elections be run by the central bankers - who print money for themselves for free - backed by nothing - and charge the rest of us interest!

What could possibly go wrong?

Let elections be run by the central bankers

No, by retail banks that already have experience keeping track of and tabulating deposits (like ballots) - and that face federal prison if they’re sloppy or fraudulent

I’ll bet you trust the numbers on your bank statement more than the ballot count in this election. I certainly do

So you don’t trust your bank statement? When has your bank stolen money out of your account, failed to tabulate a deposit and or refused to correct any errors you brought to its attention?

Or do you keep your money in a hole in the back yard?

You tell me. At the retail level - tabulating and recording simple deposit accounts - our banks are thousands of times more reliable than our vote counting mess

Has your bank ever stolen money from your savings or checking account?

So the banks would control both the money and elections and nobody would be ever be free.
