Message | Mr. Levine's party is not only against workers but is also working for the interests of fat cat bankers. This is quite frankly a despicable proposal! Yitzhak Rosenfeld, Leader of Hakla'ut VePituah |

Message | The people working in the interests of fat cat bankers are those who wish to maintain the present virtual government monopoly on the banking system! Unless we open up banking to serious private competition, bankers will not be responsive to customers and customers will get a shoddy deal. The only difference between myself and Mr. Rosenfeld is that I want to reward high-performing bankers, whilst he wants to reward low-performing ones. Yissakhar Levine Leader of Brit Yeudish |
