Wall Street donates millions to top presidential candidates

Sorry, $2.5 million. Best I could do.
Just picture the stack twice as large.
Now if these people are donating to the candidates, why would government feel the need to leave them unregulated? Never mind. Its right there &mdash $5 million.

My guess is $5 million buys a lot of influence.

Employees of Wall Street investment banks, whose role in the unregulated sub-prime mortgage market helped stall the U.S. economy, have donated more than $5 million to the top four Republican and Democratic presidential candidates.
