Pottersville Is Not Dead

It seams the bank has not killed JP yet. JP is still ranting. This is a good thing.

Think about this: 65-75 years ago, some of our biggest banking institutions were openly acting as America’s most prominent financiers and corporate bedfellows with Adolph Hitler and his Nazi party.

The single biggest financier, as posterity reluctantly tells us, was Prescott Bush, Dubya’s granddad. He was permitted to do this, undermining the war effort, until the Roosevelt government finally woke up in 1942 and seized some of the assets of Bush’s Brown Brothers Harriman that was doing more than playing footsie with Hitler and his fascist empire that was already well on its way to murdering over 6,000,000 Jews, homosexuals and other "deviants".

Fast-forward those 65-75 years and look around you. The Third Reich is a bad, shameful memory and what’s left, the neo-Nazis, have been relegated to fringe status living on through a bunch of moronic skinheads.

But the ironic thing is that now every one of our banking institutions, the latter-day descendents of the banking industry that had cheerfully handled Hitler’s blood money, reserves the right not to do business with hard-working middle class American citizens simply for standing up for their dignity and calling a spade a spade.
