America is now waking up

Two weeks ago, I sent out an e-mail to my radio show listeners on the acts of Bank of America and their encouragement of more illegal immigrants to come across the border by giving credit to them without having a social security number. Like NAFTA, if this fail for them , we as taxpayers will have to bail them out because of their bad business practices.

(Drum roll please)

Well, here is the good news.....

Apparently, Americans are fed up with corporate greed and have slammed B of A with e-mails, faxes and phone calls. It appears that their dream of capitalizing on this large, untouched market is putting them in the heat and they are now rethinking their plan. Congratulations America, we are now starting to win the battle of protecting our borders.

Also in the news is.....

U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., introduced legislation Monday that would prevent illegal immigrants from receiving credit cards from American financial institutions.
The Photo Identification Security Act would require banks to use what Blackburn calls "secure forms of identification" to obtain credit. In a statement put out by her office, she says that Bank of America "has come under fire in response to reports that it allows illegal immigrants access to credit cards without proper documentation."

Now is the time to act, call your local member of congress and tell them to step up and support this issue.
