You Think What?

As our sources and investigators look into the rumored changes taking place at the nation’s leading financial institution, YouThinkWhat as a public service to all consumers and businesses who patronize Bank of America is sharing the important facts about banking with this company. Here is a report from our investigative reporter Clark Dark:

Bank of America’s Security System Is One Way.

Have you noticed when you call the bank you must identify yourself at least ten thousand ways before you can verify any information about your money in your account? You are asked to provide your address, your account number, your date of birth as well as the last four digits, or even all the digits of your social security number or your business EIN plus the date and location of when you opened your account.

In the very recent past there have been protests and demonstrations for better jobs, housing, education, equal justice and civil rights. There have been rallies against the Iraq war and the mismanagement of the nation’s economy. There are some among us who believe these mass expressions are useless and serve no good purpose. What ideas do You have to affect change in our society? What do you suggest as an alternative? Shall we wait until we have no rights left to demand our leaders be accountable?

To those of you who agree with the headline of this article we have a few suggestions: (more…)

We think strikes and demonstrations along with boycotts are very effective means of telling the powers that be how We The People generally feel about the management and leadership being provided for our nation.

On October 17th 2007 it was Shut It Down. On November 2nd 2007 it was Consumer Black Out. We now suggest we pick up the baton from writer Garret Keizer of Harper’s Magazine, who suggests November 6th as a date for a strike, by organizing a General Strike on Black Friday, November 23rd 2007, the day after Thanksgiving.

This is an uber powerful idea from our leader Henry T. Gandolph, Site Administrator.

Henry is a very wise man. He has come up with a solution to the quandary of when a general strike would have the most impact, and we really like the idea.

Henry says, “For the most impact, Friday, November 23rd would be the best day for a general strike! If everyone boycotts the stores it will send the whole country into a panic. If sales people refuse to work, how will they even open the stores? The whole Christmas sales season is prognosticated upon the the day after Thanksgiving sales. If We The People just withhold our holiday shopping on that day, We The People would surely get the media attention and the attention of the whole country including our political dictators. ” (They may not be 100% dictators in the classical sense but they truly love to dictate what we will do.)

We have been told by several of our readers we did not go far enough in taking the Honorable Melton to task for his participation in the minority decision involving the release of Genarlow Wilson.

You nearly succeeded in ruining a young life were it not for the compassion of the other jurists on the panel. Wilson spent more than 2 years in prison for ridiculousness. How could you possibly want him to spend even more time in jail, a promising young man who was on the brink of reaching his potential because he got a blow job?? Where’s your Christian compassion? (more…)

Attorney at law and radio talk show personality, Warren Ballentine has proposed consumers of every race, especially blacks participate this weekend in an event he has named “The National Black Out”.

Ballentine believes a demonstration of this type is well overdue in light of the continuing disrespect, disenfranchisement and injustice perpetrated on American citizens of all races especially American blacks. It is estimated more than 700 billion dollars is spent annually by blacks on everything from low rider jeans to fashion jewelry, to cars and automotive accessories to the latest music to cosmetics including hair care products. The black dollar is a major component of the American economy. (more…)

We are very happy and glad, even joyous to know Genarlow Wilson has been able to secure his release from prison. We wish Wilson and his family much success in the future. We believe he will be a success in life. Prior to his unfortunate incarceration he was headed in that direction as a popular student, scholastic achiever and outstanding athlete.

We have a few thought provoking questions in relation to this calamitous travesty of justice. (more…)

On Friday, October 26, 2007, in an historic decision the members of the Georgia Supreme Court ruled 4-3 to release Genarlow Wilson age 21, from prison.

Wilson is the Atlanta man who has spent more than two years in prison for having oral sex relations with a consenting minor 15 year-old female at a party in 2005. At the time the incident took place he, himself, was 17, an honor student, football star and homecoming king at his school.

The majority opinion of the judicial panel decided upon Wilson’s release because his sentencing was excessive. In their opinion for the State of Georgia it was described as cruel and unusual punishment. At the time of his conviction Georgia law mandated the crime be punishable by 10 years in prison and registration as a sex offender. The law has since been changed by the legislature to something more reasonable. Those who come under Georgia law who are now found guilty of behaving in this manner face a punishment of no more than a year in prison and no sex offender registration. (more…)

Here’s what our investigators have found from unnamed sources:

Sources report the leaked information about proposed changes at BOA reveal the new policy is the result of the nefarious deeds of a low level vice president in the Central Florida area. Seems this employee is persistent in doing anything to insure receiving the $1,860 bonus promised by Kenneth D. Lewis, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Bank of America to employees who hold the line on such exploitive fees. (more…)

When the House Judiciary Committee extended an invitation to J. Reed Walters, the now world famous prosecutor in the Jena Six matter, to appear before the congressional representatives who are investigating this blatant miscarriage of justice, Walters had the temerity to decline the invitation to attend the hearings. Like he gets this kind of attention onthe regular!

Now ain’t that somethin’!? This is just what one would expect of a bigoted Louisiana country bully. Walters was the big man on the Jena High School campus, BMOC, when last year he, a grown-A man, threatened approximately 60 to 90 black teens in an assembly at the school. (See Jena Louisiana A Look At The Numbers) . (more…)

We’ve been hearing from our sources that Kenneth D. Lewis, Chairman, CEO and President of Bank of America Corporation, known as the “Bank With the Opportunity to Take Advantage of You”, will soon be announcing a change of strategy with the rebranded slogan “The Bank That Cares”. Hard to believe but we’ve been told by our sources Bank of America has had a rather extreme change of heart and will soon be announcing a new program to benefit any customer, current or past, who has been over charged with erroneous Not Sufficient Funds, mortgage or credit card fees.

Sources tell us customers need only visit their local banking center and speak to the manager to have their concerns addressed and receive an immediate refund. (more…)
