Finally another sound voice.

All this talking about communists, socialists or anything similar is bull shit to keep you off a real discussion. Communists don't exist anymore in today's world, socialists are (and always were) social-democrats, right is left and left is right.

Go for an open discussion and take as a starting point that you have one goal: " immediately ending all of the abusive practices of the financial industry".

They (the financial industry) are the mafia that keeps the West backwards and makes any growth impossible in spite of good market conditions, since they prey on and frustrate economic innovation and development. Delete or reform the FED, but in any case discuss it now and do it soon, while respecting democratic norms and standards (because THEY don't).

Obviously there are plenty of sincere people in the financial sector, but they are not the ones determining National (and International) Politics.
