  • One extremely relevant fact left out of all references to the dominant influence of former executives of Goldman Sachs in the US government is the recent appointment of a former Goldman Sachs player, Mark Carney, as governor of the Bank of Canada. The entire North American continent's financial system are under the management and control of former executives of Goldman Sachs. There are too many intriguing questions to be asked in one letter. A few are: Why did it happen? Who orchestrated these moves? When did it all happen? How did it happen? All the questions that good journalists should be asking as the criminal conspiracy deepens, the profitability of bailout is revealed, the deficit rises exponentially and the unemployed are treated as "collateral damage" unimportant to the "big picture."
