Who or Somebody Left the Gate Open

Since banking conspiracy theories are popular these days, let’s assume why Citibank chose the song Into the Wild for their latest commercial.  If you haven’t seen the Citibank Thank You Card commercial, there’s a scene where just as a rock climbing woman reaches the top of the mountain you hear the song’s lyrics “somebody left the gate open.”  Since I posted about this commercial in December, I’ve had several readers point out that the lyrics were an interesting choice for a bank to use.

Not sure if someone at Citibank left the gate open or if they’re encouraging America to debate or question who left the gate open.

Regardless, I bet somebody writes a fictional book about the Wall Street.  First Wall Street is attacked, then hacked and that’s why they got the bail out.  Oh, so that’s why the Presidency ages men faster than heavily marketed vices.

Nonetheless, someone at the Department of Labor likes the song.  Here’s more info about the song Into the Wild.

This post is fictional.  Any similar situation is purely coincidental.
