I can't really blame Wells Fargo , both ethnic groups have a lot to be desired!
They are the nations leaders in crime , they are the nations leaders in foreclosers , they lead the nation from the White House as the leader in LIARS.
Jails 82% black ,14% hispanic , 4% white.
Leaders in fraud from food stamps , welfare , medicare any and all government programs.

This is just another bank shakedown by the criminal enterprise that is our government. Nothing more, nothing less.
