Bank suggestion - non liberal, or at least not discriminating against conservative / libertarian

[J Galt]

I'm looking for a bank that does not support liberal causes; or at least does not openly discriminate against conservatives or libertarians.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried a web search and didn't have any luck.

This will be for personal and business accounts along with anything else I can move to the new bank (credit cards, etc.).

Thanks.

Bro, your best bet might be your box spring. I can appreciate the adherence to ideology, but wouldn’t you rather have your money insured?
But to answer your question, you may want to look into a faith-based bank, or one who lends to religious orgs.

Dont know about their politics but was reading a thread today about the Patriot party and it looks as though USAA bank is handling the account.

If you already have an account with a major brokerage like Fidelity, they can provide full service banking and credit cards. I am not aware of any of these organizations being terribly involved in politics

I have heard that German American Bank there in Indiana is neutral. I have no proof, but that's what I heard.

Define "support liberal causes" and "discriminate against conservatives". Both of those are open to broad interpretation.

Find a smaller local bank

Skip the banks, go to a credit union.

That may be true, but I would have expected neutrality out of Swiss Bank. You don't normally find much neutrality from Germans or Americans.

I'll leave that to the reader to define. Then I'll sift through the responses.

It seems to allow for a "cleaner" thread; meaning less caught up in minutia.

Hey, I trace my roots to German and Swiss, and I definitely am not neutral!!! Of course I'm not a bank....

Hendricks County Bank and Trust.

Concur.

I’d suggest myself, but for the time being, we’re a little too far out of town to suggest ourselves for somebody that probably wants to be able to easily walk into a branch.

Hendricks should be a good option. Least, they have been very professional in all of my interactions with them.

I'm not sure why I overlooked the obvious answer.

You have already provided an auto loan in the past and soon will be my mortgage holder. I've also referred another person to you, and that seems to be a good fit as well.

I don't necessarily "need" to be able to walk into a branch. I can't remember the last time I "had" to walk into my bank.

Let's wrap up this current mortgage and I'll take a closer look at moving some accounts.

I bank with GAB. They were founded in Jasper and still have their headquarters there. I haven't heard of them doing anything against conservatives and I doubt they ever would.

I will add that my mortgage is through Freedom Bank which is another one founded in Dubois County. I know one of the founders and actually go skeet shooting with him several times a year. I have really been thinking about switching to them.

I just cancelled my Amazon Chase Visa and replaced it with a Rural King Harvest card from the Redstone Federal Credit Union. 5% back on everything at Rural King, including guns!
