Rolling Stone journalist Matt Taibbi — he who coined the immortal phrase about Goldman Sachs being a “bloodsucking vampire” — spoke at an Occupy Wall Street rally today. Via Taibbi’s blog:
Occupy Wall Street is kicking off a new series of actions today, and as part of the campaign, I’m going to be speaking at Bryant Park at 11 a.m., through about noon, when a march will begin.
The topic is Too-Big-To-Fail banks, and Bank of America in particular.The Twitters were abuzz with reports from his speech. We’re going to post a few of Taibbi’s thoughts about Bank of America via Twitter.
FUCK Bank of America. Seriously. After I closed my account in December, they let stuff keep charging to it and slapped me with $70 in fees. It took three trips to the bank just to get my account *actually* closed and the fees removed.

I finally closed my “big bank” account last month. I only kept as little as possible for “convenience”. Now it’s all in...

^^ I did that a couple of months ago. Totally worth it. Especially when they try to go over “alternate account options”...
