Wall Street

"Is Wall Street the secret control centre of power?"

The street in the financial district in New York is synonymous with the heart of the international financial world. It is home to influential banks and to the world’s largest stock exchange. Conspiracy theorists claim that the power of the ‘Wall Street crooks’ is even more extensive. They would have set up a parallel government behind the scenes of democracy, the so-called ‘Deep State,’ which controls political events in the USA. It’s undeniable that globalization has produced many losers; unemployment has risen dramatically, leaving many feeling abandoned by politicians. From there, it is only a short way to the idea that there is a big conspiracy at work. The diffuse nature of global power becomes tangible this way. It is given a face – one that can be punched.
