When I saw this video the other day I was amazed, as were the BBC news folks, at the candor of this ‘trader’: “Governments don’t rule the world, Goldman Sachs rules the world.” Wow. We know it, but who ever says it on TV?!
Huffpost speculates that Alessio Rastani is none other than Yes Men Founder Andy Bichlbaum. I would love if it is, and there is a likeness, but it doesn’t look like the same person to me.
I love it when I can’t tell if it’s a hoax, as with Banksy’s movie, Exit Through The Gift Shop.
Below is Andy Bichlbaum speaking for DOW Chemical years ago. Same person? Working with The Yes Men?
Turns out, no. The Yes Men commended but denied affiliation.
