A simple explanation of how the economy really works, and a story about how Wall Street banks have taken over the U.S. Treasury (and much more of the U.S. government).
“I am a millionaire, but I never held a real job in my life.
I went to Harvard and Columbia.
I have one of the biggest private jets in the world take me wherever I want.
My wife wears $44,000 diamond bracelets.
I play golf every weekend at the most expensive resorts.
Goldman Sachs gives me millions of dollars.
When I retire, I’ll get paid hundreds of millions of $ in speaking fees by big companies.
I’ll make millions more as a board member of the corporations you are protesting.
MY NAME IS BARACK OBAMA, AND I AM THE 1%.”
