Remember that community banks are small enought to close while the big banks are too big to close. The community banks did not cause this crisis but are definately taking it on the chin for the big banks.

America has FORGOT the lessons of the Great Depression that turning you back on large corporations and bankers is like leaving the money on the bank lobby floor. Bankers are speculating in risky dirivitives and sub-prime lending to failing corporations all in the name of GREED. The regulators should PROSECUTE the directors and IMPRISON THEM and CONFISCATE their personal property under the RICO laws against organized CRIME.

The SAME GOP policies that caused the bank failures in the eighties, the same brain-dead Reaganomic bank deregulation that caused the multi-billiion dollar loses in the S&L crisis of the eighties is NOW causing the bank failures of today.
