If you didn't know,
but care to, how we got into this HUGE economic mess we are in, just watch 'Too Big to Fail', as it is explained, how the big financial firms, under Repub deregulation, wrecked our, and the world's, economy. It explains how some firms, without sufficient political suck, like Merrill Lynch, Bear Stearns and Lehman Bros, got thrown under the bus, while Goldman Sachs, Citi, B of A, and esp AIG, got paid 100 cents on the dollar, for their part in wrecking the world. Thanks, Bush and buddies. Here we are, over 3 years later, and it still isn't fixed, and doesn't look like it will be anytime soon. Watch this this movie, if you can stand it, as it is explained, in layman's terms. Sickening, but real, as Bush and buddies wrote hundreds of billions of dollars of checks, (some repaid, as the execs paid themselves billions in bonuses) as W slithered out of town, and left Obama and the Dems holding the bag. Now, the Repubs scream about deficits, as the hypocrites, and the uninformed, don't have a clue, but, it is well explained in this informative movie, with an amazing cast, that truly looks like the original 'players'.
