If you engage in wrongthink, your ability to buy and sell will be limited[1]. I recommend the following: 1. Physically visit the bank, look the teller in the eye, and complain vociferously (yet respectfully), 2. Use cash while you still can, 3. Build a strong community who understands what's at stake, 4. Shop locally, and 5. Pray.
