Each donut has a yummy pink slip baked into it.

Feels like Bank of America is already starting in with the loosening of regulations. My fiance got a notice that he's going to start being charged $12 a month to have his checking account unless he either keeps $1,500 in it at all times, gets direct deposit, or has a combined balance of at least $20,000 in all banking and investment accounts.

That doesn't work very well for him because he's a freelancer and bills have gotta be paid. We're already looking at other banks and hoping they don't start following suit.

I'm not at all in the same position as your fiance, but one thing you might look at is a strong credit union. Tend to have more reasonable feesl policies, etc than commercial banks, from what I and my friends have found.

"They sure add a lot to increasing costs for midsize banks throughout the country"

There are no more midsize banks throughout the country. Pay attention to the world around you; they've all been gobbled up into the giant mega-banks.

Though I know what I would like the result to be, for the accurate and supremely fair-minded call that the CFPB's position is legally "a little hinky," Wonkette gets a tiny pile of my Ameros! Gee, I like it here.

When is Paxton going on trial?

Expand full comment

I think that may be done in late term abortions, which are uncommon to begin with.

I just want Paxton tried, and if/when found guilty, sent to jail.

Like Vanguard?

Barney Frank says that succession was clearly written into the bill to prevent this partisan BS. Of course, Comey had a 10 year term, The Dotard fired Comey after 5 years and Congress did what it is successful at, which is nothing.
