KT, >>>Once again, the Rothschilds were nearly wiped out during WWII, so that's a dumb comment he made. And Hitler used it when he said the Jews were committing financial crimes. Controlling the money did not control the laws that put them in gas chambers. Anyone who quotes him does not understand what really happened. In the end, money is nothing vs. raw power.>>>> The religion and/or ethic background of the financial elites and politicians are basically irrelevant. The only thing that matters is that Wall ST and the Federal government have an unholy alliance that uses the power of the printing press to finance wars, the welfare state, and socialize the risks of banking, trading, and deal making. It's a process that 9 out of 10 Americans are not blessed enough to understand, 9 out of 10 of the remainder are too busy with life to notice, and 9 out of 10 of the remainder have sold their souls to profit from. That process is at the core of the vast majority of our economic problems and the massive inequity in the distribution of wealth in this country. The people that are currently accepting significantly negative real interest rates on their life savings (and paying taxes on that meager interest they are getting from the bank to boot) have no understanding about why they are getting poorer and the guy on Wall St just got a bonus and bought a new car. If they did, they would want gas most of Washington and Wall St. IMHO rightfully so.
