movin $

there's obviously some sort of peace and security having my money and savings in a major bank - one i consider to be relatively sound and responsible. it's not easy to make a decision to move all or some of it to another institution, which is why i havent yet. though the video is a touch on the scare tactic side, there's really something to be said about responding to corporate misbehavior in today's society and culture. the average person isn't going to take to the streets over wall street corruption. as usual, making a concerted effort for change (farmers markets, for one) costs a bit more financially and in terms of convenience. when does the price meet the desire for diversity, fair competition and the desire to avoid companies becoming so big that become an embryonic stage of the government/"too big to fail"?
