Financial institutions spending massive sums on politics in wave of Wall Street lobbying: Financial Sector Lobbying Running At $1.5 Million a Day Spending

From Wikipedia:

Wall Street is a 0.7-mile-long (1.1 km) street running eight blocks, roughly northwest to southeast, from Broadway to South Street on the East River in the Financial District of lower Manhattan, New York City. Over time, the term has become a metonym for the financial markets of the United States as a whole, the American financial sector (even if financial firms are not physically located there), or signifying New York-based financial interests.
