Bank of America???

Bank of America, the nations fourth largest bank, at least according to customer volume and reported Wall Street assets & revenues, recently was ousted for its committment and dedication to marketing to, you guessed it, illegal aliens. Now I'm not one to mince words when it comes to being politically correct, a spade is a spade; and if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck... well, you get the picture. "Immigrant" is a word concocted by the hysterical left used to induce the desensitization of those "Illegals" unlawfully in our country.
Upon this obviously despicable news, one FoxNews analyst claimed that other companies, such as supermarkets, convenience stores, and McDonalds don't verify their customers' status on purchases, so why should Bank of America? Uhhh, I know this may seem naive, but does Mickie D's set the tone in this country for inflation, or dictate if someone defaults on their cheeseburger that I, as a LEGAL American citizen, will have to "flip" the cost when the burden falls on the taxpayer?
Jonathan Hoenig, a business correspondent, argues that matters such as 'Breaking and Entering' are actual criminal acts that warrant pursuing, but apparently 'Invasion and illegally crossing borders and violating a nation's sovereignty' doesn't quite make the definition of 'Illegality'. Instead, he referred in a disingenuous remark that these "Immigrants" that "Pick our cabbage for $1 an hour" are deserving of what our great nation has to offer, social security number or not.
Bank of America, while refusing to appear on any network or answer any direct questions in response to this deplorable act, issued a statement reading, "In order to open an account at Bank of America, we require proof that you are a federal taxpayer ....". They claim to be following all rules and regulations set forth in the Patriot Act and meeting all federal guidelines.
Now, as anyone in this country illegally knows, good 'ol Uncle Sam will gleefully assign you a federal taxpayer I.D. number, simply for the purpose of paying your 'Constitutional Dues'. However, what makes a valid citizen in this country, green card or not, is the issuance of a certifiable Social Security Number; also used to track an individual and his/her responsibilities for tax purposes.
My question is, "Where is the I.R.S. in all of this?
As B of A markets (with brochures written in Spanish, of course) to these illegal aliens, it will (according to Bank of America Services) take merely three months after opening such an account before said alien is able to request (and be granted) a viable credit card. While the card is expected to cost around $99 and offer a line of credit in the area of $500, we have to be reasonable here; a little 'thinking outside the box' is necessary. What happens when this market of estimated 12 million illegals obtain credit, build it up, and subsequently flee the country, leaving the American taxpayer to hold the tab? What if the credit gets built up enough for, God forbid, a home loan in the illegals name, and when it gets foreclosed upon, who's left paying for the higher interest rates the banks will ultimately charge to make up for their loss? You guessed it.
Granting such purchasing power to illegal 'immigrants' opens up a frightening gateway for fraud, in addition to devaluing our dollar since a large portion of the illegally obtained funds earned through Hoenig's 'Dollar an hour cabbage industry' already go back to the country of the illegal's origin in the first place.
These 'Under the table' wage earners are a constant drain on our economy; not reporting income, free medical attention, subsidized government help; they're not looking for the 'American Dream' so much as they are to break more laws than they did when they snuck across the border.
They assemble in undocumentable numbers in the streets decrying discrimination and chanting for amnesty, calling us haters and bigots, then start foundations for latinos only (La Raza), go into business and accept foreign currency (the Mexican Peso; Pizzapatron.com) as payment for services within our borders; set up shops in cities across the country that harbor their illegal activities and abuse our sovereignty on a daily basis, and have the nerve to call us rascists? This almost sounds as ludicrous as the New Black Panther Party.
This "Bank of Profiteering and Pirating" devalues our citizenship as well as allows illegals an opportunity to further blend into our society. It should be a concern to every U.S. citizen that Bank of America has chosen to market to those that have blatantly disregarded our laws by unlawfully entering this country, regarless of motive. The Patriot Act must be repealed and reviewed to disallow this pillaging and infringement of our rights. Payday and Check Cashing companies have already perverted our system by allowing such a breach in our national security, allowing these people to utilize their services, whether at a ridiculous Mob-Style racketeering rate or not; allowing illegals to continue this progressive path to outright Amnesty proves that the almighty dollar is more important (at least for businesses), than the very patriotic people who follow our rules of law and their credit and concern.
Americans need to speak up; not doing so is the same as condoning the actions of violating our national security. We need to show that this cavalier attitude exhibited by Bank of America will not be tolerated. We must rise up, withdraw our money, and take it to a place that understands our nation's purposes and respects its laws.
