Saturday, it was suggested that we destroy a bank, specifically M&I Bank, given that they were Scott Walker's largest campaign donor. Some have asked, "Is it justified?" given that campaign contributions are made by individuals and not the business.
You bet it is! Luckily, a little research goes a long way in following the money trail!

Per http://www.followthemoney.org, M&I employees contributed $46,308 to Walker's campaign and $12,106 to Barrett's campaign. What is telling is that $45,558 of the $46,308 came from the executive suite as follows:
