To: OneWingedShark; blam

I am being more than a bit sarcastic tonight, but their is a core group of FReepers for whom banks can do no wrong. A group that if the law says you do a then b then c and in that order the banks should be/are be exempt because the law is either archaic as it not efficient and does not meet their business model. And when they are in the wrong it is only because they were trying to meet government regulations. To these FReepers its been over 2000 years since anyone roamed the earth that were more innocent and preu of heart. Did I cover it blam?

Or, that evil can’t be encoded in statute.

Not a problem; we all get that way at times.

but their is a core group of FReepers for whom banks can do no wrong.

I would recommend reading James 5, that should disabuse that notion.

I have a book titled "The History of Banking".

Within it is a copy of a letter written in the early 1800s.

The writer had taken a trip from the Boston area to somewhere out west, I think Kansas area.

He related the many trials and tribulations of exchanging money in different cities and at state lines along the way.

Upon arriving at his destination he penned the letter, telling of the Indian raids, poor food, lack of water, etc.

He finished with, "But at least I'm beyond the reach of the theiving bankers".

I don’t know, I think really it’s good that people challenge others conclusions and assumptions.

Do you want to be a member of a mutual admiration society or a member of group that challenges you to keep all your facts straight and relevant and your conclusions reasonable?
