Check your local bank.

As Willie Sutton said, "That's where the money is."

Or Wall Street. As Gordon Gekko said, "Greed is good. Greed works." (Tell that to former DNC head Terry McAuliffe who made $10 million off of stock in Global Crossing. Or NJ's Torricelli...)

As Mad Magazine Dave Berg once wrote in a cartoon, the reason modern churches and modern banks look so much alike is that they're both houses of worship.

Cheers!

"MAMMON, n. The god of the world's leading religion. The chief temple is in the holy city of New York."

Ambrose Bierce, Devil's Dictionary
