Wells Fargo will spend $10 million on gun violence “research”

May 2, 2020 | Featured

In order to buy protection from gun control groups, Wells Fargo has promised to give more than $10 million to support their research agenda.

Trisha Schultz, a Wells Fargo spokeswoman, said in a statement that the bank planned to invest more than $10 million over three years in studying gun-violence prevention and in improving school safety. The bank, she said, has “a small and declining relationship with the NRA.”

    Why would you spend 10 Million on some stupid gun Violence program. Don’t you thank there have not been enough programs already.
    Here is where you need to spend that money to do the most good.
    1. use it to get your act back together
    2. What about your share holders Just maybe you should spend it with the family first.
    My wife has a number of shares & I just purchased some for my self.
