Chairman of the Fed; you control the money, you control.
They used to watch Alan Greenspan's briefcase; theorizing change, like a rise in interest rates, was coming if it got thicker.

damn you mike! beat me to the punch. the fed is the most powerful institution in the U.S. especially with how quickly they helped out with jpmorgan's buyout of bear stearns.

it depends.
the feds keep oppressing us.
big bidness keeps fucking us.
but there are 250million of us and 50 million of them.
if everybody has a pitchfork and storms the gates then i'd say the citizens.
but then we'd be france, and well, lets face it, nobody likes or wants to be like france.

The Federal Reserve.
Considering our money has been printed out of thin air since the 70's since we've been off the gold standard, they have maintained the illusion of our security. It could all disappear pretty fucking fast.
