Naked Capitalism Link of the Day

Today's link: Awesome: Wisconsin Firefighters Shut Down Bank that Funded Walker, at Alternet:
Heeding a call by Firefighters Local 311 President Joe Conway to 'Move your money,' union members withdrew over $100,000 from the bank, with some reports stating that number is as high as $192,000. Either way, it was a hefty enough chunk of change that M&I shut its doors and closed for the day at 3PM.
An update puts the figure at $600,000.  I wouldn't mind seeing a little economic boycott of major political donor corporations.
