Default Stop the Global Banking Cartel

Found this on another site. It seems like a unique way to get the attention of our run-a-way banking system.
But I wonder if they can get enough people to participate for it to have an effect?

Also from the above site some videos about everything you wanted to know about our economy but were afraid to ask.
If you watch these be prepared to spend some time as few are a bit long but I think there well worth it.

VIDEOS!

I used to bank with US bank but switched to a local regional just over a year ago.
Talked my daughter & her family into doing the same. We've all been very pleased with the switch.
Same with the grandchildren.
So far we still even get free checks as long as we keep a certain amt in our account.
I plan to order more checks this week so I'll see if it's still in effect.

My problem with banks is that they start charging fees without warning. I'm treasurer for a non-profit. We have a couple of checking accounts for separate functions. One such checking account is linked to Certificates of Deposits for when they mature, and I can buy more. That account used to have a minimum of $25 before fees were activated. This month, it became a minimum of $500. Since I keep as little as possible in that account, I was charged $8.00. Also, I make sure that I get bank statements in the mail (instead of online) for audit purposes. The bank has a new $2 charge for sending the check images, which I don't need and did not know that I could even stop that process. Fortunately, I was able have the bank waive those charges and provide a refund.

Point being - they did not warn.

I have a secondary checking acct for play money. Just a couple hundred in it. Until Dec it was 5$ a month if it dropped below 100$. Now they switched it to a 1500$ min. I am just going to get rid of it.
