It looks like "The People" are on-board with ideas of the Occupy Movement.
Occupy protesters were shouting for Americans to ditch big banks, and apparently folks were listening!
Credit union memberships grew to record numbers in 2011.
More than a million new members were added.
Many additions were in the last three months of the year.
Credit unions tend to offer fewer fees, and better rates, than bigger banks.
