No need for big banks to come to communities if the communities are willing to create, support and maintain a community bank which works for them. They did this in the states many years ago and the members of the bank had equal say-so etc on the banking rules/ regs except on those regs that were national rules. They still function well today. Similar to having your own community savings programs ...all for one and one for all kind of program. Everyone benefits from everyone using the bank system. I don't know if that concept is workable anymore in some communities tho, because, some people have a rather high opionion of themselves and are more focused on I , me , mine concept vs. all of us together concept. Just my thoughts on this LOL |

Look at those new RFD tags, or whatever they call them...where by they can scan and read your credit cards in your wallet these days as your checking out in the retail store your at in line. In fact they want to know EVERYTHING you do beyond the call of sensibilty. They want to be able to send you out purchasing before you even need to really purchase....they want to deny you things based on thier assumption of what they have pigeoned hold you into being. In short they want to be "YOU' except physically. Your every thought. They are crazy...this is beyond the best salvery issue God ever sent Moses to Egypt to declare "set my people free" on in my estimation. I can see why the Russians wiped out there genealogy also....Bush has latched onto my family line and there is... no way I can not say he's not related " first" in the families ..though it be incorrect to my knowledge in reality...and he's got it to pass over his evil control to others using that "tradition" of the oldest is the has inheiritence rights...others dont' for his own self-wealth off others...but he is not the only one. You dare disagree...your off the net. Other countries know the truth of this also. |
