Comments: #TOLDYA On Goldman
This is a bipartisan issue, too. It doesn't matter where people are on the political spectrum, they all think this is evil and horrible and that it must be stopped. But Goldman-Sachs and several other companies have so totally and successfully infiltrated the US federal government, they're like Hydra in the new Cap movie; its too deep, too complete, and too dug in to remove. You'll have to burn it down to get rid of it.

"You'll have to burn it down to get rid of it."
There's an app... err... an amendment for that...
Fixing the corruption that began with the Republican Party's implementation of the Hamiltonian "American System" of crony capitalism, fiat currency, central banking, "internal improvements" pork, regionally unbalanced protectionist tariffs and federal income tax won't be easy and it'll be a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it.
Call your State Rep and ask them: what are they doing, personally, about the out-of-control federal government? Explain to them why "Huh?" or "Nothing." are not acceptable responses, especially if they're running for (re-)election in a few weeks.

Andrew Jackson had the right idea with the Specie Act.

Jackson had the right idea on how to deal with Hamilton. That idea should be reconstituted, in mass.
