        Why don’t states tax the shit out of guns to pay for “hardened” schools?

        Yeah... That's what we need.... Put banks in charge. Didn't we just bail them out a decade ago?

        This is nothing new. The banks have been in control of the government for some time now. This article just suggests that they come out from behind the shadows and overtly exert their control. F the banks. Buy bitcoin.

        Anyone who says "no bank will dictate what I buy" has never read the Visa or MasterCard regulations. They already do this. If something gets a lot of bad press, they move away from it. They're nervous about cosmetic contact lenses for goodness sake.

        Absolutely not, no bank is going tell me how to spend my money. Sounds like New York times, just endorsed communism.

        Excellent article, I do believe one Omaha bank said they would no longer offer NRA Visa card.

        Big banks only care about money. They make money for cus buying things. Guns are a $1.5 billion a year industry. Banks want in on this money. And if they don’t, other banks who allow gun sales will profit enormously due to gun sales. Nice theory though🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
