With Bank of America It's GREED, Not Luck
That was the title of the papers handed out by SEIU Local 560 members who attended the rally last Thursday (3/19) in front of Bank of America. It was a good turn out, thank you to those who came to lend a hand!
The green papers that we handed out to folks on the street and in their cars again was titled "With Bank of America, It's GREED Not Luck" which explained how 'BoA' took $45 BILLION
from tax payers to help stimulate our economy, but instead of giving workers and consumers a little luck, all we got was more corporate greed.
It went on to explain that BoA has;
The
highest fees of any bank in the nation
A CEO who earns $4,800 an hour while his workers make $10.50 an hour
Corporate jets and lavish executive pay
Less consumer and small business lending
$35,000 Bank of America workers laid off
If this outrages you, tell Congress to enact real change to end an era of corporate excess and rebuild an economy that works for
everyone:
THE EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT so workers have the freedom to form unions for a voice to share in economic progress they help create.
PRESIDENT OBAMA'S BUDGET to make affordable, quality health care for everyone a reality
STRONG BANKING REFORM to make sure the financial services industry can never again bring our economy down by prioritizing huge profits and executive pay over reasonable lending
TELL SENATORS SHAHEEN AND GREGG TO SUPPORT PRESIDENT OBAMA'S BUDGET BECAUSE AMERICA NEEDS AN ECONOMY THAT WORKS FOR EVERYONE:
