“The banks run the place,” Peterson told the New York Times in Monday’s editions. “I will tell you what the problem is — they give three times more money than the next biggest group. It’s huge the amount of money they put into politics.”

Hell of a good investment lately. A few million in bribes, a few trillion in 'stimulus'. They're 'stimulated' and we're too sore to sit...

Yeah right, take blame for your own actions. Ron Paul isn't influenced by any lobbying efforts.

They do run the place, but it is the politicians who let them. In other words, they're the ones responsible for it all.

The Democrat that said that is just going to blame the free market and ask for more socialism. If you ask any educated elitist liberal, the only way to get rid of government corruption is to give the corrupt government more power.
