Charles, go with me here. I am dead right about how the federal reserve system works: You say-- The financial world is a changing. I do 90% of my 'banking' at Merrill Lynch. I can also get an SBA loan from them. I say-- Yeah that's right, that's why this week Congress passed the anti glass stegal legislation so that Chase can buy Merrill Lynch, with government insured money, but a little known clause in the bill would prohibit Merrill Lynch from buying a bank. >>As a small business owner, I haven't noticed that lending practices have changed that much over the years<< There are at least 11,000 Local banks and savings and loans that do not exit any more. (in the last 12 years) Selective perception is a wonderful thing. The government knows that when you want to kill someone using Arsenic, you can't give it to them all at once, they just get sick, you must administer it in small amounts over a long period of time. The poison is cumulative in the system. (pun intended) Duke
