Bank of America’s Illegals: Letter to the Editor of the Day
By
In February, the Wall Street Journal gave Bank of America chief Kenneth D. Lewis space to “defend” his bank’s sell-out to illegal aliens, issuing them credit cards.
Today’s WSJ had a couple of good letters to the editor attacking Lewis and BoA (and one moronic letter defending him–by a woman named Elaine Jancourtz of Plainsboro, NJ). The letter was by Vincent P.A. Benedict of Collegeville, PA was terrific, so I reprint it below:
Thank you for allowing Kenneth Lewis to plead his case for granting illegal immigrants access to credit cards through his bank; you acted in the true spirit of press freedom.
And I, exercising my freedom, canceled my $39,900 credit-line credit card, which I had held since 1996.
In addition, I have canceled all of my Bank of America accounts and have elected never to do business with Mr. Lewis’s company again. Freedom is a wonderful thing.
Vincent P.A. Benedict
Collegeville, Pa.
Kudos to Mr. Benedict.

Alas, soon we’ll have to switch back to cash and stashing savings under the pillow – turns out all of the major ones do that and that didn’t start yesterday. For quite a number of years Wells Fargo started their “pilot” program in Mexifornia which they are planning to spread to the rest of US this year. Citibank does it too. It’s all about money, they have no morals and no nationality left to obstruct them from making profits.
