Once again, its not the gun, its not the bullet, its the person holding the gun that pulls the trigger.

The problem is nobody is willing to work their way up. People think just because they have a degree they should be making 100k right off the bat.
When my dads company folded I went from making $25 an hour to $10 an hour at my current shop and I've worked my way back up.

People act as if they are surfs and there are no oppertunities out there. Well I say let them eat cake!

Actually, a lot of CU's are part of the Co-op network, so I get no fees using almost any CU ATM, as well as most 7-11's. I can also go into almost any CU (I think) and make deposits/withdrawals inside.

Also, any charges by another bank for using their ATM is refunded to me.

What I don't like is that I was spoiled by Wells Fargo and now have to use deposit envelopes again!

Ok, so YOU knowingly incurred a debt and now you think that it should be wiped out? How the hell does that even make sense? Take responsibility for your own GD actions, people. Hell, I have some debt. I pay it because I, not anyone else incurred it and I am responsible for it.

KL:FJDS;au au 0[aqukd oiua; eu98 - you can quote me on that.
The *******s at wallstreet are social idiots, they want someone else to pay them more than they're worth, they bought in to the 'go to college get rich easy' lie, they are the 99% that are ****ing retarded in this nation.

No remorse from me, I've been working since I was 13, learn how to get a job ****ers.

I love how this got ignored lol. It's a shame though that the OWS movement didn't immediately happen after TARP was passed. It's like they were "sold" on the idea that it made sense that all of these companies were bailed out, and then somehow "believed" that they would be to.

As stated previously, see "Inside Job."

What is the goal of occupy wall street? I should probably specify and ask for their realistic goal outside of living in tents, drinking, urinating and defecating on public property.

After seeing this movie it's hard to believe nobody went to prison. Even more unbelievable that some ended up on obamas cabinet.

Yup, I've worked for everything I have. I hate to say it, but I make more than a lot of people I know that finished college. I worked my *** off to get where I am. That's how it should be. Don't like your current economic situation? Fix it, because I sure as hell shouldn't have to do it for you.

Dereg was part of the problem. Clinton pulled the saftey valves out of the system at the same time he put new regulation in place and that caused parts of what happened.

However, I note you keep avoiding the fact that people, the ones taking out the loans were just as cupable as the banks/goverment.

It's only unbelievable if we "believed" that Obama is actually legit. He hasn't been called a "black puppet" for nothing. The fact of the matter is that our government IS a Wall St. government.

Most people here and nationwide would rather throw stones at other individuals for their mistakes and complaints, yet they don't even blink when their tax dollars are regularly used to pay for the mistakes that companies make on a daily basis. Solyndra anyone?

Doesn't really matter if the Co-op ATM's are at international 7-11's because of the worldwide ATM fee refunding.

Also, I switched to a CU before the bank transfer day thing was announced. I was just fed up with WF's ****ty customer service
