WE NEED POLITICIANS WHO ARE NOT CONCERNED WITH WHETHER NATIONALIZING BANKS AND NATURAL RESOURCES LIKE NATURAL GAS AND OIL IS BAD FOR BUSINESSES.  WE NEED POLS WHO THINK NATIONALIZATION OF SOME VITAL NATIONAL INTEREST BUSINESS IS A GOOD THING.  ARE WE TRYING TO BECOME SOCIALISTS......NO.....ARE WE TRYING TO PROTECT PEOPLE FROM A SYSTEMICALLY CRIMINAL BUSINESS SECTOR......YES.  UNTIL WE CAN TURN THE PENDULUM BACK TOWARDS A REASONABLE RULE OF LAW AND MORAL BUSINESS ETHIC WE NEED POLS THAT WILL BUILD PROTECTION AROUND THIS MESS.  IF WE LOOK AT SPAIN WHERE MOST OF THEIR BANKS WERE NATIONALIZED WE SEE YET ANOTHER RECIPE FOR DISASTER.  WE DON'T WANT TO NATIONALIZE THE SYSTEM, WE SIMPLY WANT CHOICES.

WHEN MARYLAND'S ATTORNEY GENERAL GANSLER WAS ASKED TO TAKE PUBLIC MONEY OUT OF WALL STREET BANKS AND INTO COMMUNITY BANKS HE COMPLETELY IGNORED SUCH A SUGGESTION AND CONTINUED TO GIVE THESE WALL STREET BANKS PROTECTION ABOVE AND BEYOND.

SHOUT LOUDLY AND STRONGLY FOR GIVING CHOICE IN BANKING WITH PUBLIC BANKS!!!!

Public Banks are ...
•   Viable solutions to the present economic crises in US states.
•   Potentially available to any-sized government or communityable to meet the requirements for setting up a bank.
•   Owned by the people of a state or community.
•   Economically sustainable, because they operate transparently according toapplicable banking regulations. •   Able to offset pressures for tax increases with returned credit income to thecommunity.
•   Ready sources of affordable credit for local governments, eliminating the needfor large “rainy day” funds. •   Required to promote the public interest, as defined in theircharters.
•   Constitutional, as ruled by the U.S. Supreme Court
  and are not
•   Operated by politicians; rather, they are run by professionalbankers.
  •   Boondoggles for bank executives; rather, their employees aresalaried public servants (paid by the state, with a transparent pay structure)who would likely not earn bonuses, commissions or fees for generating loans
•   Speculative ventures that maximize profits in the short term,without regard to the long-term interests of the public
