JP Morgan: a súmula da super-classe

No seguimento das menções de Mario Machaqueiro e Daniel Oliveira a este relatório, vale a pena ler esta descrição da importância do JP Morgan Chase para a classe capitalista transnacional, também conhecida por super-classe, e da qual retiro a conclusão:

"To sum: it should be clear, from the evidence, that the leadership of JPMorgan Chase is not an isolated group of individuals involved in finance and exclusively relegated to the banking world, but a highly networked and influential group consisting of central figures in the global plutocracy – referred to as the “Transnational Capitalist Class” – with significant economic, social and political power. To refer to JPMorgan Chase simply as “a bank” is like referring to the United States as just “a country.” A geopolitical force unto itself, and a conglomerate embedded within a transnational network of elite institutions and individuals, JPMorgan Chase goes beyond the financial indicators. Put simply, it is one of the most powerful banks in the world."
