Amid banking crisis, Georgia cuts consumer complaints division for banking industry

Huh.

From The Georgia Times Union:
ATLANTA - Budget cuts have pressed the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance to stop fielding consumer complaints about banks, mortgage lenders and money service businesses.

Monday marked the last day the department worked as an intermediary between state-chartered financial institutions and consumers who take issue with what they've received.

Jesus help us. This would not be happening if Eliot Spitzer hadn't stuck it to you know who.

What is Thurbert going to do about this or is he going to play possum again?

I guess Allen Peake is mid-Ga's only great white hope if the financial institutions stick it to you know who like Eliot Spitzer did.

THURBERT, where are you now, can you hear us now???
