Summary

This quote suggests that bankers, through their control over government funding and personal influence, possess significant power in shaping the decisions and actions of governments. However, their influence isn't limited to direct control; bankers can also exert indirect pressure to guide governments in specific directions according to their interests. By leveraging financial leverage and their own sway, bankers can heavily impact government decisions beyond what may be apparent on the surface.
