Abstract

The article presents a speech by Chris Hedges delivered at Union Square in New York City during a protest targeting Bank of America in April 2011. He claimed that the bank considers greed and profit as the highest good. He noted that the bankers, corporate mandarins and political leaders are driven by greed and envy. He compared bankers and hedge fund managers and corporate and government elites as the contemporary counterparts of misguided Israelites who worshipped the golden calf.
