A PNC Bank Horror Story

The Evans family (my mother and father and me) are former customers of The Wayne County National Bank, a fine institution we never had any trouble with. Then, several years ago, WCNB got bought up by National City. There was a lot of grumbling locally, since WCNB was a locally owned community resource and we all hated to deal with a monolithic, big bank... Some customers moved their money... My mother was at that time dying (although we didn't know she would pass when she did), my father was elderly, and I had the decision making role in the family. I decided to "go with the flow" and stick with National City. And I want to say, I was never sorry I did. National City customer service was polite, and I never had any discrepancies on my accounts or those of my father and mother, who had a joint account.

The developing horror, below:

The BP environmental atrocity is a huge distraction which allows pressing problems to be papered over. Intractable problems that may bring down the world's economy and lead to something far worse than we face today. ~ Paul Evans

Financial reform is making it's way through Congress in what is touted as the biggest overhaul since the Great Depression. In the worst economic turndown since that time, bipartisanship has found it's voice as both parties are eager to be seen as favoring reform. But while the Obama administration publicly has taken on a strong voice for reform, behind the scenes the administration has worked to kill off progressive amendments and substantive reform is lacking.

This is just a little informed speculation, nothing more.

I'll keep this short and sweet. It seems to this writer that the whole corporate world is in collusion to make the world's people into worker drones and wring the last little bit of money any person might have extra away from them. I honestly think the corporate world is in collusion to separate ordinary people from their money, or rather what's left of it. I think the process is highly organized and highly sophisticated.... as sophisticated as the software involved in investment banking's program trading. And I believe the Obama administration, while somewhat of a voice of reason in the whole process, is nonetheless complicit.

I don't think the average rich person or corporate CEO gives a damn whether you or I or anyone else lives or dies. I think money is a religion that these people bow down to.

Let's look at the actions of some principals in this whole business, BP, CEO Tony Hayward and investment bank Goldman Sachs.

Evans Liberal Politics, May 31, 2010, compilation and commentary by Paul Evans

Ever since evidence of a huge oil plume deep in the Gulf waters came to light, entities with "reasons" for those plumes not to exist have either stayed silent on the subject or claimed there was no direct evidence of any oil plume. On May 17th, NOAA distanced itself from claims by scientists regarding the reality of the oil plume, saying essentially that it is too early to tell and no conclusive proof exists. Strong evidence of these plumes has existed since the middle of May. See Giant Plumes of Oil Forming Under the Gulf, The New York Times, May 15, 2010, by Justin Gillis:

Here we examine sex education, concentrating on "abstinence-only" sex education, and examining programs, funding in the new health care bill, and such evaluators as the teen pregnancy rate. We start from a Christian and also a scientific perspective, and try to evaluate the evidence fairly and objectively. The fact that I am a strong Christian yet was trained as a scientist gives me the tools to look at both sides of the debate fairly.

More after the break.

See Google Private Data Collection: Company ADMITS Snooping Via WiFi Networks, The Huffington Post, May 14, 2010, by Bianca Bosker, quoted verbatim on Evans Liberal Politics.

Summary: In a blog post published Friday, Google admitted to 'mistakenly' collecting sensitive private data sent over WiFi networks.

Germany's data protection authority (DPA) requested Google audit the WiFi data collected by its Street View cars. The audit revealed that contrary to the company's claims, for at least three years, Google has been collecting payload data (the information users send over a wireless network) from non-password-protected WiFi networks. A programming error from 2006 was at fault.

Posted on Evans Liberal Politics, from Alternet, May 15, 2010, by James K. Galbraith with commentary by Paul Evans.

See James K. Galbraith: Why the 'Experts' Failed to See How Financial Fraud Collapsed the Economy, AlterNet, May 15, 2010, by James K. Galbraith, quoted verbatim:

Galbraith to senators: "I write to you from a disgraced profession. Economic theory ... failed miserably to understand the forces behind the financial crisis."

Galbraith's statement is followed by my highly critical discussion of the sweetheart relationship between Wall Street and the leading financial personalities of the Obama administration, especially Tim Geithner, Larry Summers and Ben Bernanke, with a call to start a new era of transparency and honest dealing by cleaning house.

A Plea for Tolerance of Muslims: What Would Jesus Do? (Final Update), or simply, "Christian Tolerance", Evans Liberal Politics, May 12, 2010, April 24, 2010, and also November 11, 2009 under a different title, and published on Daily Kos as well, by Evans Liberal Politics owner Paul Evans: this was written right after the Ft. Hood shootings, when the nation seemed especially inflamed against Muslims. It is still just as timely as ever. I did edit the post and hopefully improved it. I also thought it was important enough that it deserved its own page on Evans Liberal Politics and a place as an article here on Daily Kos.

The article has been thoroughly rewritten with a special plea for active caring in our lives. An attempt is made to show a religious basis for CARING as the main value of any sort of God in the universe.

Gulf oil spill: The Halliburton connection, © The L.A. Times, April 30, 2010, by Margot Roosevelt and Jill Leovy, excerpt quoted verbatim:

Investigators delving into the possible cause of the massive gulf oil spill are focusing on the role of Houston-based Halliburton Co., the giant energy services company, which was responsible for cementing the drill into place below the water. The company acknowledged Friday that it had completed the final cementing of the oil well and pipe just 20 hours before the blowout last week.
