San Francisco protesters take to Market Street in populist movement against major banking powers who are nickel-and-diming the same people who bailed them out in 2008. In addition to the City By the Bay's main downtown financial area, other protests happened in branches of the Bank of America/JP Morgan Chase/Wells Fargo. There were estimated to be hundreds of protesters in the city yesterday. This appears to be in solidarity with the two-week long "occupation" of Wall Street and for ending rampant foreclosures in California. Although the San Francisco Chronicle, the areas' main paper, retains a strange silence on the coverage of this major news event, the Examiner managed to cover the story. http://www.sfexaminer.com/local/2011/09/demonstrators-give-banks-earful-downtown-san-francisco

    Wouldn't it be smarter to just have a ton of people doing business with them to "drop them like a bad habbit"??? I use a credit union and they don't play these games...

    Thanks for posting this video of the West Coast backlash to the bankster mafiosi Doug.....the movement is growing daily, it can count upon massive support from abroad, of that I am certain......here the BBC is still trying to pretend it isn't happening...it is all unravelling for the corporate servile propagandist media, they are losing ground daily.

    I think you'll be seeing more consumer boycotts like you refer to Beverly, at least in California.

    Thanks AA. I'm sure a lot of people tried to pretend the anti-war movement in the 1960's could be swept under the rug for awhile. Too many people have been affected by the toll that "bankster capitlaism"on Wall Street for this not to snowball I think. Their are plans in the works next week for protests in LA and San Diego as well.

    How shall this all heal Doug as I am clueless as to how the economy shall. It's such a hard thing to grasp it all yet as I had mentioned on Will's page I did have a lengthy discussion with one friend of mine back within New York and Doug we discussed this from both sides of the coin and within the end of our talk it was even rather hard for him to understand it all.

    There is history within the making but I don't think that "these times" shall be looked upon within future years as the good years. It's very complicated and very poloraized with the thoughts of different states.

    No, we are in "heavy weather" right now as the Brits used to say.

    I still maintain that things shall render back Doug. Yet so much is perpetuated more than need be. A friend of mine just retired from what used to be called Morgan Stanley it was her option and for five years she said that it felt like a 100.
    I still do believe in America but the foundation seemingly has gone so extreme at the moment.
