And the Big Time Banksters Come Marching In
NEWS, 14 Nov 2011
Robert Wenzel – Economic Policy Journal
Here’s what you need to know about the current crisis in the Eurozone. The big time banksters are getting direct hands on control:
Mario Drgahi has become president of the European Central Bank as of November 1. He was vice chairman and managing director of Goldman Sachs International and a member of the firm-wide management committee. He was the Italian Executive Director at the World Bank. He has been a Fellow of the Institute of Politics at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University.
Lucas Papademos takes over as prime minister of Greece. He was an economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. He was a visiting professor of public policy at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. And, he was previously a vice president of the European Central Bank. He has been a member of the Trilateral Commission since 1998.
Mario Monti succeeds Silvio Berlusconi as prime minister of Italy. Monti completed graduate studies at Yale University, where he studied under James Tobin (see the Tobin Tax). He is a member of the European Commission. He is European Chairman of the Trilateral Commission and and member of the Bilderberg Group.
If you get the sense that the elitist banksters are going to take this financial crisis and push it in whatever direction they want, you are probably very right.
[Note from the TMS Editor: Mark Carney, Bank of Canada governor and former Goldman Sachs executive, was just named chair of the Financial Stability Board.]
