Because you might not want to pay back more than you borrowed? Whatever this isn’t a debate about usury and cucking to big banks.I want interest. Why would I not want interest? My issue is that I don't want them giving over info to the feds if I legally buy a gun or the like, like BOA does.
The idea that interest is woke is dumb, btw. Interest is capitalism at work, behaving normally.
I'd like them not to willingly volunteer to give data about who has purchased guns to the FBI, nor for that matter track that data. Not too much to ask for, I don't think.As for banks that won’t report to the feds? The fact you are asking here means you are not rich enough to be a client. In the US banks have to disclose things to the federal government what you want is foreign banks ideally something from Switzerland, but again I doubt you are rich enough to fly over there and open a bank account. Though soomeone else already gave some other advice.
Again probably foreign banks.I'd like them not to willingly volunteer to give data about who has purchased guns to the FBI, nor for that matter track that data. Not too much to ask for, I don't think.
Also, I'm curious for places that aren't paying attention to ESG scores. Not picking the opposite of ESG, just ignoring it.
Your best bet here is to withdraw cash from the bank and make a cash purchase of a firearm. Note, however, that if you purchase from a gun store, pawnshop, or show, they are required to do a background check so your information will wind up in the FBI's hands anyway. You would need to do a cash-only purchase from another private citizen and that carries a serious risk that you're going to be purchasing a stolen firearm, or a legal one that was used in a crime, so you may wind up in hot water anyway.I'd like them not to willingly volunteer to give data about who has purchased guns to the FBI, nor for that matter track that data.

Yes, I know this. I do know how to evade basic stuff like this. What I want here however, is to not put money into a bank that would do this.Your best bet here is to withdraw cash from the bank and make a cash purchase of a firearm.

Assuming you're remotely handy with tools you may want to consider building your own firearm. Eighty-percent receivers and the like can make this easier.
All financial institutions operating in the US, Canada (and most developed countries) are legally required to report information on transaction and balance activity to local tax (& in some cases, law enforcement) authorities. To avoid that - cash, barter, or tax haven.I'm going to guess that all banks in the US are bound by law to do so, though.
I'm not talking about a warrant, I'm talking about this:I'm going to guess that all banks in the US are bound by law to do so, though.
Not talking about avoiding govt regulation.You'll need to take your banking abroad to avoid reporting regulations. And then they may have thier own local reporting requirements or other special issues. You want to avoid being tattled on? Cash. Barter.
Very true. I'd hold it in just crypto, but as anyone familiar with crypto will tell you, either it's missing a practical way to extract it when needed, or it's not under your key (meaning it's not your crypto). Also, I don't want an emergency fund in a volatile asset.Unfortunately, you're starting from a position of weakness, since cancel culture mostly comes from the left nearly any sorting system will favor giving you left-leaning banks and trying to search is usually by specific left-leaning goal, not conservatism and certainly not libertarianism.
This. I do like the convivence of a bank. It's incredibly useful. But until the Wyoming Full Reserve Bank gets going (if it does), I'd like a better option than my current one (Bank of America).Not talking about avoiding govt regulation.
Just avoiding woke stuff.
Then look for a smaller, regional institution (bank, credit union, etc). The big-name institutions are going to lean heavily towards woke, at least until some lawsuits are successful at securing hefty payouts for breach of fiduciary duty to shareholders/account holders.Very true.
