Bank of America Should Sue Dick Durbin

On Monday Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) took to the floor of the Senate and said “Bank of America customers, vote with your feet. Get the heck out of that bank. Find yourself a bank or credit union that won’t gouge you for $5 a month and still will give you a debit card that you can use every single day.”

Now, you can bet that Bank of America is going to look at every customer and wonder, are they leaving because we are now charging them $5 for a debit card or are they leaving because some blowhard U.S. Senator said they should leave.

If I was Bank of America, I would be thinking about a tortious interference with contract claim against the Senator.
