From YT:
Ever want to yell at 300 billionaires and millionaires who helped wreck the economy? US Uncut did just that.
At Bank of America's first Investor Conference in three years (3/8/11), organizers from US Uncut crashed the event to protest corporate tax dodgers and public service cuts. The room was packed with 300 hedge fund managers, institutional investors, & asset managers.
The video says it all with US Uncut's simple message:
"When corporations like Bank of America don't pay their fair share of taxes, we have to 'cut' teachers, firefighters, and public servants."
"Do you pay your taxes? So do we. Why don't corporations pay their fair share, just like everyone else?"
"Bank of America is Bad for America. Bank of America pockets Billions in profits and bailouts, but $0 in American taxes - that's immoral and un-American."

Truckchasesays...I agree with the sentiment but I'm not sure about the impact...
handmethekeysyousays...^I think the point is more about making this video than having an impact on the investors, who clearly don't give a fuck.
Also, gotta admit that "Bank of America is bad for America" has a nice ring to it.
If anyone should have the motivation, GoDaddy confirms that "bankofamericaisbadforamerica.com" was not on the list of domains BoA registered in their attempt to preempt bad PR.
