USA Today: What Happens When Investment Bankers Run a Country

Investment bankers are not worth a small percentage of what they now get paid. They do very little, they take my money move it around, take huge fees for doing so and what have they created in doing so, a BIG NOTHING, In the process my investments or savings are destroyed.

Our countries big mistake was when everyone went gag gag over the fact that we were becoming a service industry. Yeh, we serve the bankers and they screw the country while becoming supper rich. A country which can not actually manufacture and produce products and appears to be able to only enrich a few at the expense of everyone else is not likely to be great.

The Republicans and Bush did a beautiful job over their 8 years destroying the middle class, and enriching the top 5% of the population.

I hope that Obama's policies actually bring some change for the better, but I have my doubts.
