I know the Occupy crowd hates the large banks but I have yet to hear them say what the executives should do to support the "99%".

What would YOU do?

So putting hundreds of thousands of "99%" folks out of work would help them?

Nothing, I refuse to help people who won't help themselves. Debt is not mandatory. Be responsible with money and life choices and you won't end up losing your house, having to drop out of school, or God forbid you stop buying $3k laptops, $500 phones and $5 cups of coffee. Banks have to make money as well in order to remain open.

We keep voting in the same clowns who keep letting banks get away with murder and then blame the banks. We make it impossible for welfare recipients to even try to find work and blame them. We moan (apparently the correct term for a female dog is now spelled "*****") about having no manufacturing jobs while shopping at Walmart.

Anyway to answer the question, If I ran a mega bank I would declare martial law and force all of you dogs to your knees before me where you belong!

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but arent you one of those posters who cried because the GOP held the nation "hostage", because they didnt want to issue more credit?

The executives of big banks can't do anything. IT'S NOT THEIR MONEY TO SPEND.

You would effectively stop the creation of money or i.e. the American Dream?

I remember you talking about how a family member of yours had no clue about how fractional reserve banking works. This was you correct?

If it was, how can you then summarily talk about destroying capital reserves?
