Not bad for a part-time job at a bank.
But then JP Morgan are one of the largest banking institutions in the world and Blair is now a senior advisor. Not only that, but JP Morgan have long supported war criminals, nazi's and fascists regardless of moral considerations, if it has been in their financial interests to do so.
Blair should feel right at home
By way of example Morgan money was behind an attempted 1933 fascist coup plot that would have imposed a Hitlerite fascist dictatorship in the US and ended the FDR New Deal programme, that was used to tackle the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The programme created tens of thousands of government sponsored public works jobs. This seriously affected the available workforce of several capitalist enterprises many of whom were paying less for their industrial workers than the government was under the New Deal and began to lose its labour force.
According to newspaper articles by John Spivak entitled 'Wall Street's Fascist Conspiracy' (New Masses. January 1935) a congressional investigation, the Dickstein Committee, suppressed the testimony of witnesses including General Smedley Butler which named JP Morgan as ultimate financier of the plot.
$300 million was made available by Morgan and friends, to carry out the coup which would have raised an army of 500,000 veterans under the banner of the American Legion and the American Liberty League.
Butler's exposure of the plot that he had been asked to lead effectively brought it to an end, but
the secrecy of the congressional hearings into it meant that none of the backers of the 'Business Plot' were ever prosecuted.
Spivak's articles revealed that several congressmen on the Dickstein Committee were in the pay of JP Morgan, DuPont, William Randolph Hearst,and Lehman Brothers which all had large financial interests in Nazi Germany and opposed a boycott with it.
Spivak also names the leaders of the American Jewish Committee as these same members and directors of the Dickstein Committee who suppressed evidence of the fascist plot and its financial backers.
'I point this out not as casting reflection upon the great body of sincere Jews cooperating with the Committee's work in fighting anti-semitism but to point out that the banker, whether Jew of gentile, is interested first in his class interests and in fighting for these interests he forgets racial and religious affiliations'.

top shareholder is David Rockefeller who until recently had the largest shares in Exxon Mobil financially the most powerful oil company in the world, which was was with Chevron, Texaco & others only part of the Standard oil empire.
During world war 2 David snr led SOE financial intelligence divisions in Europe whilst his fathers company fed oil & vital chemicals to IG Farben & Soviet companies. "Methodist Chuch going" Rockefeller business increasingly became involved in deforestation, chemical "agriculture" & "medicine", the father of founder John snr was a snake oil"healing" preacher, his sons were just more successful chips off the block.
In 1933 Morgan bank was controlled by JP Morgan the angloamerican banker & not yet merged with Chase. But David jnr came to the fore in 1953 attending the first Bilderberg meet & every single one since, surpassing this before the set up of G8 with his & his war friend Kissingers own international in 1973,the Trilateral Commission, which was basically an extension of Bilderberg into asia
"American Hegemony & the Trilateral Commission", Stephen Gill
The Sub prime housing crisis was discussed widely at the Ottawa conference 2006.
This year the aging corporate politburo have a meeting in Washington in April, look Mr Bond you can see it all on your web TV.

The only international revolutionary organisation to protest the Rockefellers was the Industrial Workers of World syndicalist union, who before World War 1 led thousands to the Rockefellers Pontiaco compound near New York. They were so successful, leading Wobbly Mother Jones met John snr to negotiate after one infamous massacre he orchestrated during a strike.
In the 1970's a famous american pun was becoming president would be a demotion for David Rockefeller. Wether Senator Jay or other of his family takeover is debatle, what isnt is that the Bilderberg & Trilateral commission set the corporate oligarchical agenda & rely on increasingly more dangerous WMDs & unsafe technology to maintain their grip.
What is the answer? Part of it is for us to join international cooperatives,unions businesses as well as political parties like the green party that make mistakes but strive towards direct democracy & consenus similar to that in Swiss cantons & true communities, wether anarchist,muslim or zionist.
