A columnist in the Toronto Star yesterday, as a matter of fact, suggested Occupy Wall St. form its own Co-Op bank and run it by the "socially responsible" principles it espouses.

His father and a bunch of other guys in the 1950's, each with about $35, did a similar thing - forming their own Co-op - and eventually it built into something significant.

Go fer it. Knock yourself out.
