An independent trader based in London was interviewed by the BBC about the current fiscal crisis when he said, "Governments don't rule the world, Goldman Sachs rules the world." and suddenly everyone in collusion with the power elite is trying to say this guy is just a plucky prankster out to try to punk the BBC. But he's for real, and he was quite serious. "I have no idea why I'm getting this attention," Rastani told Forbes. "I don't think it was news. For someone to say what I said, I thought everybody already knew this kind of stuff. The big players of funds rule the world, I don't think that was news."
