Simon O'Reily: Quote for July 17, 2008

(Regarding the Power of Banks.)
We can step in and take anything we financed anytime we want to, that's ownership. Market force means exactly that. We can seize assets, we can use the IMF to force countries to pay their loans back, we can react against any government until they do exactly what it is we want them to do.
from: The Bank (2001)
