Updated: I neglected to add the important “US commerical purchaser” part. No business can compete with the funds allocated to our armed forces (air force is #1 overall)…

Also FYI and worth a browse:

Any member of WFB should talk to their branch/banker and ask what they are doing, and if they can do more…

Big business is very fragmented and I have seen personally that Wells is not all bad. However I am contacting RAN to learn more on what can be improved.

Here is some good that just was announced: Wells is the top US purchaser of clean power today –

What the Wells Fargo directors fail to understand is that there is no profit when a man sells his ethics and his conscience for the thrill of an extra buck.

Thanks to your exposing WFB’s dirty practices, I pulled my checking/savings/IRA out of WFB late last year. The lady behind the desk seemed indifferent to what I was doing and why. I wrote the CEO about my quitting WFB after umpteen years, including describing that lady’s indifference towards her customers, and of course never got a response. Par for the course, sadly. Thanks for all you’re doing RAN!

I am fortunate that I don’t do any business with Wells Fargo directly. Otherwise I’d be on my was to the local branch to close out my accounts.

How is asking a corporate CEO questions in person, instead of from behind a line of police a violation of his rights? In fact, isn’t it a violation of all of our rights that he wields so much power and has the protection of tax payer funded public citizens?

I was present at the Ritz-Carlton when these events documented in this article were happening. For your info the hotel would not discriminate against a person who wanted to rent a room and had payment. The hotel name is spelled as listed above – I thought you would have seen that as you stood in front of the sign while demonstrating. Your facts are off in this article- I think you should be careful about writing statements of fact that you have not verified. While I support your right to convey your point of view – you also have a duty to present valid facts. How will anyone believe the facts you present about environmental impact if other facts are not correct. Overall I thought your group got their point across without having to disrupt meetings with public relations stunts. If you believe that protection of the rights of others is “futile” then I think you may want to rethink your position on freedom of speech.
