Everything is fucked.

One big complaint a lot of people have is the big banks are not investing in small business. This needs to start happening soon. It is the largest job creator and a huge part of our economy.
For years I lived and had a small business in a medium sized town. One day Fifth 3rd bought out the bank I was using. Not only was my loan officer gone so was the entire loan division.

I move to another local bank and within the year BB&T comes in and does the same thing.

Large national banks only want to take consumer deposits, issue credit cards and make expensive auto loans. Small businesses aren't in their game plan except for merchant fees on credit and debit cards.
