I agree. And France and England are tied in because they influenced the dirty deeds before the USA came into power. Then the center of power gravitated to the US.
The Rothchilds were/are the most powerful.
The Delano family also made millions during the Civil War when they saw to it that the US Army Medical Corp had supplies of Opium. They, among many others, were big war profiteers.
I'm not buying into the Rothchilds conspiracy stuff, but in my studying of the start of the Civil War, it certainly appears to me that wealthy men of New York had the most to lose from an Independent South.
I think New York's excessive influence in Washington began with the election of Lincoln, and has continued ever since. I think the Media broadcasting systems are located in New York precisely so that influential people can keep an eye on them, and insure they put forth "news" that is in the best interests of those people who like Big Government in Washington D.C.

And that fits too, of course.
