    Default Wells Fargo Robbers got away with $500k+

    I was wondering why the Feds were involved and making press conferences about it. Now I see why. $500k+, no dye packs because they got into the vault and they're being violent. Dang.

    Feds are always involved in bank robberies as the banks are federally insured by FDIC.
    “Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defense and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.” Andrew Jackson

    A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'

    That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

    Damn...someone really did their homework and executed a well-planned robbery. And possibly had help from someone who works, or worked, there.

    Wow! That is an epic haul for a small job.

    It's okay though, the Fed will just print more...

    These stories always make me nervous, as my wife works at a bank. She's been at work for a few robberies, but it's usually the "note pass" for a much smaller sum of money.

    What are you talking about? The Fed printed this $.5M decades ago! These guys are probably just taking back what is rightfully theirs!
