\u201cThere is definitely a fear among certain Jews in this industry\u2026And it\u2019s because it\u2019s spreading past Wall Street now. There\u2019s a growing animosity towards the wealthy, and especially the wealthy that have made money on Wall Street and real estate and finance, as so many Jews have\u2014some legitimately, some not so.

It explains the disastrous\u00a0shift within the American financial industry over the last decade, exposing the elements, the decisions and the people who destabilised the global economy. In doing so, it provides an insight into the systematic, faulty structures that transformed American financial services industry\u00a0markets into a risky bubble.

In America, credit rating agencies had been receiving huge funds\u00a0from the financial institutions that they were supposed to critically asses. Clearly, America let the cat look after the milk. The cat\u00a0failed to confess a conflict of interest. Seemingly, in most cases, the cat was rather corrupted, and as it happens, it still is.<\/span><\/p>\n
