<< is not the same Party today.>>

So the issues raised by Janet Tavekoli about "Big Money", the guys running the opaque $500 Trillion interest rate swaps biz, etc, don't have undue influence over Congress and government ?

or maybe less than when Trump was ruling the roost?

I must say, the issues she raised were scary for any country that claimed it had democratic processes of government.

Not saying where I live, the UK, is any better btw.

We have "the city". When William the Bastard conquered the UK in 1066, he bypassed "the city" for some reason. What was that all about ? Had there been some speculation on the outcome of the Battle of Hastings??

William I charter to the City of London - City of London

"the City of London has a special status: it has its own government, its own mayor and its own independent police force"

Well, as you say, that's all in the past. I need to "get with it" -g-
