Why are Banks Off on Govt. Holidays?
I imagine in some fashion to present the illusion that they are one in the same with the government but is there really a reason why banks share holidays with the government?



Any thoughts/replies are appreciated.



Many thanks!

Gee. I dunno. Maybe it's because they're fucking government institutions. Maybe it was all of those billions of dollars that bought their assets. Maybe. Or maybe i'm just nuts.

Why not everybody, since every single thing was owned by Lehman Brothers. Lehman owned all of the transportation and information technology companies. This is not a joke. We all deserve a holiday and a bail out.

Thanks for the responses.



And I am really trying to understand this. How are banks owned by the govt? Or did you mean that the banks own the govt?


As for the garbage man well I imagine it's b/c his checks are signed by the "City of XXXX" whatever city he/she lives in.




Do credit unions also get the day off? If so, are they also a part of the govt?


Thanks for any replies.
