Citibank is too big to fail, too big to effectively regulate, operates above the law, and exists in its current form thanks to generous government subsidies and taxpayer bailouts.
The banking cartel is the one place where it's obvious to all sides that there is no effective form of market-based leverage that can punish them, and representative democracy has no leverage either. My point is there's no avenue for interest groups to stop this kind of meddling.
If the banks come together and decide they're going to change the way a constitutional right is exercised in the US, there is no realistic hope of putting together a market-based (i.e. boycott, divestment) or regulatory fight against it.
