Several of our mega-banks engaged in predatory lending practices that nearly took down the entire financial system. Wall Street firms profited from selling “triple-A rated investments” they knew were junk. This outrage has most recently manifested itself in the Occupy Wall Street Movement, which has called for a Bank Transfer Day, on November 5, calling on customers to leave mega-banks with abusive practices and switch to smaller banks or credit unions.

  • Occupy Together
    #OCCUPYTOGETHER who we are. read our blog. Like 223k Follow LEARN ABOUT #OCCUPY //////////////////////////////////////// BACKGROUND & TIMELINE the #occupy movement is an international movement driven by individuals like you. All of us have many different backgrounds and political beliefs but feel that, since we can no longer trust our elected officials to represent anyone other than their wealthiest donors, we need real people to create real change from the bottom up. Organized in over 100 cities in the United States, #occupy aims to fight back against the system that has allowed the rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer. We no longer want the wealthiest to hold all the power, to write the rules governing an unbalanced and inequitable global economy, and thus foreclosing on our future. how did #occupy start? The #occupy movement, originally initiated by a call from Adbusters to "Occupy Wall Street," was inspired by several international protests, most notably, the Arab Spring protests. Thousands answered the call and arrived in Zuccotti Park, at the heart of New York City's financial district, to protest the damaging influence of corporations on politics as well as social and economic inequality. Hundreds stayed every night for two months and created an encampment in the park, a model that was adopted by people all over the country as the movement spread to well over 500 cities.

Widespread consumer dissatisfaction with large banks and a stepped-up advertising campaign by Michigan credit unions have helped put the industry in the spotlight and led to robust growth. The Credit Union National Association estimates that from Sept. 29 to Oct. 29, Michigan credit unions gained 27,900 members, far above typical monthly numbers. It is closer to what the Washington, D.C.-based organization estimates credit unions in the state would ordinarily gain in an entire year. Michigan has 4.5 million credit union members.
