Operation Choke Point was started by the DOJ to go after pay day loan companies that are nothing more than somewhat legal loan sharks.
Then Obama and Holder got the idea to extend it to other groups.
They got the FDIC to list the following businesses as being associated with high-risk activity and to punish banks for dealing with them.
##Ammunition Sales
##Cable Box De-scramblers
##Coin Dealers
##Credit Card Schemes
##Credit Repair Services
##Dating Services
##Debt Consolidation Scams
##Drug Paraphernalia
##Escort Services
##Firearms Sales
##Fireworks Sales
##Get Rich Products
##Government Grants
##Home-Based Charities
##Life-Time Guarantees
##Life-Time Memberships
##Lottery Sales
##Mailing Lists/Personal Info
##Money Transfer Networks
##On-line Gambling
##Payday Loans
##Pharmaceutical Sales
##Ponzi Schemes
##Pornography
##Pyramid-Type Sales
##Racist Materials
##Surveillance Equipment
##Telemarketing
##Tobacco Sales
##Travel Clubs
Now these are all groups that the Left finds offensive in general.. Suppose the next Republican President, with a Republican AG, tells the FDIC to tell banks that some of those groups are no longer "high risk" and are OK to do business with, but other groups are now to be added to the list...
Abortion Centers
Abortion Counseling
Abortion Planning
Environmental Groups
Immigration Support Groups
Illegal Immigrant Aid Groups
Race Based groups
Would you continue to support the Government using the Banking Industry to push their political Agenda?
