   The film revealed some fascinating aspects of the economic melt down that have not been shown in the main stream media. This film is well worth watching just to watch Fred Mishkin, Glenn Hubbard and John Campbell have "Ralph Kramden" moments when confronted with tough questions.… Expand

   This is a well-organized an compelling documentary, and everyone should see it. In fact, they should teach it in schools.
