Acerca de esta escucha

Culled from original presidential archival documents, All the Presidents' Bankers delivers an explosive account of the 100-year interdependence between the White House and Wall Street that transcends a simple analysis of money driving politics or greed driving bankers.

Nomi Prins ushers us into the intimate world of exclusive clubs, vacation spots, and Ivy League universities that binds presidents and financiers. She unravels the multi-generational blood, intermarriage, and protégé relationships that have confined national influence to a privileged cluster of people. This unprecedented history of American power illuminates how financiers have retained their authoritative position through history, swaying presidents regardless of party affiliation. It explores the alarming global repercussions of a system lacking barriers between public office and private power. Prins leaves us with an ominous choice: either we break the alliances of the power elite, or they will break us.

Whether you love politics (or not) and whether you love banking (or not) don't you want to know how bankers have influenced Presidents (and history?

IThis book answers that question.
In an era when politics is broken, this gives part of the reason why.

The book gave the reader history, but did not follow though with policy reforms to correct the problems! Current proposed reforms are not listed, nor any by the author!

Very long book chronicling the relationship of elite bankers and banking institutions with presidents over the past 100 or so years in the United States, up through Obama. As with any book delving into a mostly singular topic, the information is overwhelming. There are so many bankers discussed and highlighted that it is really difficult to remember names or details. Suffice it to say, Prins goes pretty soft on them.

Prins' general theme seems to be that bankers were more altruistic in the past, and have now degenerated into creatures that no longer have any allegiance to their countrymen. I would contend that elite bankers have historically been repulsive scumbags, and their principal aim was to fool Americans into driving themselves further into slavery and debt. See the Rothschild emissary JP Morgan. To this end, the Federal Reserve was created, and wars were funded.

Interestingly enough, Prins tries to show the different relationships various presidents had with banking elites. She is a thorough apologist for FDR, and somehow sees him as a quality leader. Also, she seems to want to praise LBJ, falsely claiming his War on Poverty was a success. And some of her history is screwy. Like when talking about WW2, she claims in 1941 the world was horrified by Nazi atrocities. Sorry sweetheart, but that particular hoax was going to have to wait until some years later.

Curiously, Prins obsesses on "deregulation", though how someone can look at incestuous relationships wherein legislation is created or repealed to please bankers, and screw ordinary people, as any sort of "deregulation" is beyond me. Bankers push legislation, or its repeal, to enhance their power. The government does their bidding. This is not "deregulation". This is a cartel. When bankers run your country, and control your assets and leaders, there is no free market. Central banking is a cartel, and these vultures work together to dominate and abuse ordinary citizens.

All in all, a very long book, and often quite boring. If you want a really great book on banking, I'd recommend "The Creature from Jekyll Island". Prins' book is chocked full of details, but in the end the attempt is paint the bankers as ambitious men who seek to use government and power to achieve their objectives, but in a decent way. "Jekyll Island" will show you that instead, this is a criminal syndicate which does not have your best interests at heart.

All wars are bankers wars

A book you will want to read twice. A dense book, yet a page turner. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to brush up on their history and simultaneously view it through a different lens.

Great financial history book.

Interesting and scary at the same time. Great reminder on just how far back this cozy relationship between the financial industry and our own government goes

Great read
