Well, I said I was torn and I do want to know how many people BoA has fucked and in how many ways. If they go our of business because their customers discover they don’t like their business practices, wouldn’t that be the free market? If Assange was leaking that McDonalds was using rat and dog meat in their burgers and people said “Hey, I’m not eating anymore rat/dog burgers”, how would that be any different? People make different decisions based on new information, If people get new information that leads them to seeking out a new bank due to bad or unethical business practices, that’s capitalism. Or at least I thought it was. Information, choices, competition and all that.

nevertheless BoA failing is NOT a good thing…99/100 of their employees are ordinary people….the situation calls for some basic nuance, eh?
