STAND UP TO THE BANKSTERS IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

Goldman Sachs and the other banksters are back to making record profits and on track to hand out multi-billion dollar bonuses. Meanwhile, back in the real economy, unemployment has risen above 10 percent, millions have lost their homes and the banks keep nickel and diming us.

Enough is enough - it's time to take our demands for more accountability to the streets.

Join with Public Citizen's president, Robert Weissman, and hundreds of other fed up consumers and activists in a protest in front of the Goldman Sachs offices on Capitol Hill this Monday, Nov. 16! Let’s demand an end to billions in bonuses!

What: Protest the banksters in front of Goldman Sachs and rally at the Capitol.

Where: Goldman Sachs, 101 Constitution Ave NW, Washington, D.C. (close to Union Station).

When: Monday, Nov. 16 at High Noon.

Too big to fail is too big to exist. It’s time to break up the banks and put a watchdog to work for everyday Americans. As part of the rally, we will be releasing a report showing how much the bailed-out banks and the financial sector are spending in Congress to block reform.

Can you join us to show that we won’t settle for anything less than real financial reform? Use the form below to let us know if you can come to the protest. Add a comment to share what your sign will say!

If you can't make it to the protest, you can still take action. Learn more here about how Public Citizen is fighting for real financial reform.

I am totally amazed politicians who know better allow financial institutions to fleece hard working citizens. This is exactly why we need government oversight in the first place!

228	November 29, 2009	Jonathan Chance	Congress and the Treasury need to serve the public by abolishing the Federal Reserve Corporation and issuing legitimate currency such as silver dollars, United States Notes backed by domestic US hydrocarbon reserves, and United States Renewable Energy Credits (US RECs) directly to individual citizens: JPChance.wordpress.com
