How does Wall St, collectively and en masse decide and go about doing this? I'm not saying that they don't - I think that it has been fairly well reported that the sums of money coming from Wall St. as campaign contributions are large - I would just like to know if there is any coordinated mechanism or is it a kind of wisdom of the financial crowds ...
Well, it's not that complicated. In a tribe, you help your friends and you hinder your enemies.
Imagine some techie eating lunch with his techie buddies. Is he likely to talk about how he's against net-neutrality, or is it likely that he's for it? If he were against it, he'd seem weird.
Basically, you're not going to screw the people you hang out with all the time, and might want to work with later.
