They basically said that if anyone uses an eminent domain seizure for commercial purposes BB&T wants no part of it and won't loan to that company. I believe they're a Southern bank also rather than a NY one.Jehuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483263667086303029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867127488416158679.post-61140926069138760022011-11-12T22:25:29.100-08:002011-11-12T22:25:29.100-08:00Pardon my ignorance, but what is so good about BB&...Pardon my ignorance, but what is so good about BB&T?Hailhttp://hailtoyou.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867127488416158679.post-7793623177335953612011-10-23T19:41:10.940-07:002011-10-23T19:41:10.940-07:00AC

As to major institutions that are on our side, there aren't many at the elite level, although a sizeable chunk of the population is on our side. At the less than elite level, lots of the churches are on our side, but most have traitors at the top. The military is the same way, quite reactionary at ranks below LTC or so, less so at the more political ranks. Most credit unions and small banks are much more on our side than banks, because what largess they distribute tends to fall pretty much exclusively on very local concerns.Jehuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483263667086303029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867127488416158679.post-23641277632940604222011-10-23T18:31:57.657-07:002011-10-23T18:31:57.657-07:00Not convinced that banks are enemies of reaction. ...Not convinced that banks are enemies of reaction. They lend regardless of ideology, which is more than we'd get from outright members of the Cathedral.<br /><br />Put it another way...what major institutions would you say ARE on our side? Statistically, half must be more friendly to us than average, and a shift of power to them would be helpful.ACnoreply@blogger.com
