I grew up on Curry Ford Road in downtown Orlando. Free market capitalism didn’t help my mother when Wachovia Bank rearranged her debit charges to maximize overdraft fees the week before Christmas.
It didn’t help her when she pawned her dead mother’s jewelry so that her kids could get presents that year. And it didn’t help her fifteen years later when the bank settled a class action suit and my mom received a $33 check.
Poor people shouldn’t have to pay for some rich Californian’s ideals.
