Traditionally, high ranking politicians would find once they took office, that they had a new found authority. From their perspective, it was unfortunate they also had very few choices due to the restrictions placed on their office and duty to the country. Eventually, they found out how to manipulate and scheme to get what they wanted until their station far exceeded the limitations once placed on them. I bring this up to place things into perspective. The money masters have all the power in the world and all the choices to go along with it. They are answerable to no government, no people. This rule applies to all nations with private banking...and that's nearly the entire world.
I remember a line from the movie about Howard Hughes---"the depression did not touch him, he was above it". And Hughes was a pauper compared to the super rich of today.
