Bank By Bank, Here Are Wall Street’s Favorite Politicians

The figures are in. In a report compiled by “Business Insider”, banks like Goldman Sachs gave Mitt Romney six times as much money as they gave President Obama in 2011—2012. Two banks gave House Speaker John Boehner more money than they gave President Obama. Should our president take money from banksters? No, but the banks give far, far more to Republicans. And they GET far, far more from Republicans in this unspoken quid pro quo.
