Loss of Buying Power | 0
My concerns aren't about me. The American public here, where we live and work, are suffering from a loss of jobs and buying power. You have caused this. Now it's time for you to show your love of country and start giving back to improve the lives of your fellow Americans. My accounts with banks "too big to fail" will be moved into credit unions and local banks if there is no positive movement on your part. Positive movement means giving the government back to the people. Positive movement means accepting your obligation to keep the economy viable for all Americans. Wake up! This will not get go away until you prove you're not just out for yourselves and that you care about the rights of the people of this country. Doris Kelly 12538

Your profiteering and days of manipulations of the free market system is coming to an end. Be ready, it's not as much on the other side of that 1%. But we will welcome you with open arms. john frenzel 12545
credit cards | 0
Four years ago I can in a car accident. I was in the hospital for 12 days. I had no credit debt before the accident. One of the credit debts had not interest but if I was late once, it reverted to 22% interest. When the insurance money came I paid the debt -however I am still paying the interest and they are charging me 22% on the interest. In every spiritual tradition usury is a debt. It is unbelievable to me that banks were able to convince American people to live above their means and to borrow. Great for the banks to have citizens turn into consumers - to have students in debt to them - to have industries and countries in debt to them but not good for anyone else but the key financial players. The American government must end the Federal Reserve, recall illegal fiat money (read our constitution) break up large national banks and go back to small local banks and credit unions and of course make an amendment that makes it impossible for elected politicians to be bought by banks and corporate interests. with blessings, Maxine with blessings, Maxine Maxine Krasnow 10025

Bank of America was the horrible institution that I dealt with during the foreclosure of my home. Your greed took the form of complete obstructionism in trying to work out a mortgage mortification followed by outright harassment, receiving 36 illegal calls a day. All the while the US citizens were bailing you out. It came as no surprise to learn that the government bailout was more lucrative that working out a modification. You guys should burn in hell.

Retirement | 0
Sir,
I worked my entire life, saved and played by the rules. Despite my best hopes and my Doctors best efforts a surgery on my back did not work and I was forced to Retire. Because of YOU and your immoral conduct I found that my Wife and myself would have to live with far less and do without things we had planned on our entire life. Because of YOU and your immoral conduct we found our 401-K plan almost worthless.
Now if that wasn't bad enough, I sit here today doing without and watch YOU and those like you just keep going on as if NOTHING had happened... it's like those of us in the Middle Class who can't find a job or can't retire never mattered to begin with. We are trapped in the Rubble of what YOU destroyed. Shame on you!

We were run over by you in 2008, and haven't come near to recovery. Try being 80, as I am now, unable to retire, a caregiver to a partner with Parkinson's Disease, well-published, still teaching, but with scarcely any time to finish what for me is an important book. In those circumstances, you too might be tempted into the politics of resentment even as you watch those in even much more dire straits. I call ours a form of "privileged despair," which includes amazement that you and the other bank robbers are still as privileged as you are. Sadly, you just don't "get it," and we can't demonstrate, but you had better stop bashing your victims with condescending comments. At the very least, please shut up. Gordon Rogoff 10025
What profit a man? Or woman for that matter | 0
All that wealth you've looted, accumulated, or earned: does it make you happy? Really, deep-down happy? I doubt it, somehow. Remember that old saying, what profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul? I, for one, still have my soul. In the end, we'll see who "has more." Joe Sehl 55408

but NEVER wrapped themselves in an American UNIFORM.

-------------------------
If Guantanamo and Torture are so effective, why are we NOT torturing our FINANCIAL TERRORIST Bankers and Politicians to get some TRUTH out of them? After all, the Al Queda Terrorists destroyed maybe $8 Billion, and murdered about 3,000 Americans. The World Trade Buildings cost the insurance companies $7,000,000,000 ... and they had to pay TWICE because Shylock Silverstein got it counted as TWO separate acts.
"Our" BANKERS have destroyed TRILLIONS of dollars and MURDERED many 10,000s of Americans from lost medical insurance, stolen retirements, increased child abuse, suicidal despair, heart attacks............... The government has the gall to state that $50,000,000,000 is "EXPECTED to be DEFRAUDED" from the RECOVERY funds. They should go find the FIRST "defrauder" and PUBLICLY HANG him, and any others later. ......If these "esteemed" Politicians who wish to brand American Veterans as terrorists, know HOW to fix the economy ........... then they knew how it was SUPPOSED to be running as it was LOOTED ........ The American People have lost $14,000,000,000,000+ ........ root these FINANCIAL TERRORISTS out of their cubicles and lofty offices, and send THEM to Guantanamo (Goldman Sachs ..... hint hint hint)

Nickle and diming and HUGE corporate bonuses | 0
No matter what the banks promise about 'no fees', they crop up somewhere. I've notice that a deposit takes about a day or so longer to post than it did less than a year ago. Fees that will charge up for debit use. They advertise 'free' checking, but it's a lie. And the huge bonuses...it's disgusting. Would they need to nickle and dime us all if they cut out the awful bonuses? Why don't they give their own low paying employees something more instead of being so greedy and awarding themselves such vast volumes of money? They aren't worth that much! The whole world has been watching their greediness. Please stop! Janis Barnes 37206

I lost $35000 because Chase Bank lied to me about my investment. When it began to go down, Chase said, "stay in it because when it comes back up then you will have 1.5 times as much as you started with". This was just a lie. It has never returned to its highest level or even close! Terry Huey 40522-2253
{olitical Contributions are stockholder monies. | 0
Dear Board Members; I find it incredulous that you are always touting that you are trying to increase shareholder value, yet you continue to pay out tens of millions of dollars each year in political campaign contributions and in the hiring of lobbyists. In the case of Goldman Sachs, during the past 5 years, you have paid more than 80 Billion dollars to employees while shareholders have lost 25 Billion! In the case of Bank of America, your stock has fallen 85%, yet executives continue to make tens of millions of dollars in pay and bonuses. In the case of Citigroup, shares have lost 94%, while your executives continue to reaps millions of dollars! These are NOT Actions that increase shareholder value! You should all be ashamed of yourselves and you should admit, that you are NOT good, prudent, business people. Hell, a monkey could throw darts at a chart and do better than you have done! For each million dollars in compensation to executives, you lay off 30-40 low level employees! Don't you realize these are the employees who are holding the ladder you are standing at the top of? What do you think will happen, when they let go of the ladder and walk away? This time my friends, there will be no tax payer bailout! You are all clueless as to what is happening in the country today! Why not come out of your ivory towers and talk to everyday Americans. We will set you straight! That is, if you have the guts to listen! James Beaulieu 33324-1403

The 'occupy wall street' movement is resonating with many middle-class americans. We have long been frustrated with the way that the government and the economy is being manipulated by corporate interests which seem bent on the extinction of human beings. I will work with this movement to see that other voices are heard. The tyranny of corporations must be ended if we are to survive. Joe Morrissey Binghamton, NY 13903
Home Mortgages | 0
Because of your greed you knowingly promoted fraudulent loans on homes that would inevitably be under water in no time. My home value has decreased but my primary concern is that of my daughter who has two small children and is saddled with mortgage payments that far exceed the value of her home. Some nest egg that is! Thanks Wall Street and Bankers and Corrupt government officials. Oh yeah, and let's not forget the Supreme Court that through their Citizens United ruling have made the exceleration of this corruption inevitable. Mary Kay Goette 24060
Social Responsibility | 0
Corporate executives have a moral obligation to balance their quest for maximum profit with a responsibility to our society, their employees, their customers,our environment and our country. As people become more aware and enlightened, companies who do not act responsibly, will feel a significant negative impact on their business. Peter Devaney 19063
My retirement | 0
I have worked hard my entire life and I worked until I was seventy hoping that I would have a good retirement. because of your irresponsible actions I lost 1/3 of my small retirement in 2008. So now I am still at the whims of Wall Street as the market has its ups and downs because of speculation with oil prices, there is still the mortgage mess that isn't taken care of and the hedge funds still operate and believe me that doesn't help me one bit. So now I do not have a secure retirement that I worked so hard for while you people can still buy your fancy cars and yachts and mansions. I am tired of hearing CEOs and Republican Presidential candidates say it is our fault if we don't have a job and aren't rich when we are at the mercy of people like you who work only for your own benefit and the bottom line. Well, don't forget we are shareholders too and you have stolen our money. If you had acted responsibly and not gambled with other people's money we would all be better off.

criminal fees charged | 0
This is not reasonable: young adults -- my own children included -- who overdraw their checking accounts unwittingly, and rather naively, but are then charged over $33 PER DAY for what was, in one instance, a two-dollar overdraft. Now, what reasonable, intelligent, kind, etc., person would impose such a Goliath-type fee? That is simply grotesque, unadorned greed, and only one tiny example of your actions causing undue and crippling hardships for mere human beings who do not dwell in your rarefied atmosphere. You need to take a hard look at yourselves. As human beings on this Earth, we are admonished against usury . . . it is indeed a crime. You, sirs and madams, stand accused of such. And you wonder why people are protesting? Are you all sociopaths?? Lisle Merriman 44122
Your greed | 0
You should be ashamed of yourselves, at the greed that propels your industry. As a teacher I see young children everyday who are struggling with the harsh reality of their poverty. They sometimes refer to their situations by telling me that there is no money at home to pay bills or buy food. They are beautiful in their innocence, and brave to share their stories with me. You wouldn't know such bravery though, would you? Paula Cordell 45387

Would you loan money to me and then say, 'oh you don't have to pay me back'. Nope, I didn't think so! You would charge me interest and then take my home or car. Corporations make millions and they are greedy and want more, more, more. Debi Green a Pissed Off Worker Bee! Debi Green 73099
