Can someone please explain to me how Bank of America is allowed to operates with our money?

Dec 312011
 

About three years ago, I refinanced my parents’ home, partially for a better interest rate, but also to get away from the practices of Bank of America.
Approximately two months ago BOA, bought-up my mortgage company, and I am once again back to the forces of evil.
Then I read this article in the LA Times;

The “convince” fees alone have made me start shopping again.

Can someone please tell me why we would allow a company to operate like this? The government, ok, maybe, but a taxpayer financed Privet Company?

Joan…the 269 included Iowa for Obama, I skipped listing it by accident…you can try different secnarios at the L.A. Times link.
Maine also is solidly Democrat and IS included in the 269 (sorry).
