The concerns about conflict of interest are certainly valid but maybe just maybe it's not a big conspiracy.
- vkou 9y agoThere's too much money at play for there to not be a conspiracy - of some sort. I think it's pretty hard to argue that our economy is not highly skewed towards protecting the wealth of the very rich.

I don't mean to suggest that there is a grand organized conspiracy. That said, I do believe there is a strong network of bankers that promote their self interest.
