And the difference between bankers and mafiosi is that the Italian gentlemen wear better suits.

Bankers lend you an umbrella, then when it rains, they want it back.

I think Fletcher missed the Elizabeth Warren allusion, but he does have a sense of humor.

Commies always did resemble the Mob. In more ways than one.

I second it: Brilliant!

It points out the crucial difference between The Mob and Liz Warren's mob:

The Mob actually wants you to make more money to pay more vig. Liz Warren wants you to starve so she can buy your vote for a Mess of Pottage.

I hate both of them! But if your gonna shake me down, I'd rather see a dapper guy with a gun-print under his suit than a fucking sandal-wearing middle-aged woman driving a Prius.

Y'know, if you're going to do me fiscal violence, at least have some style.
