I’d like to think my blog was enough of a threat to Wall Street to pull YouTube clips off the Internet – but this afternoon INSIDE JOB was gone.  SONY PICTURES pulled the clips off of the Internet.

It’s a great documentary – if you can find a copy buy it, rent it share it with your friends.  Everyone should know what happened to our economy.  We cannot ignore it because it’s not going away or getting better any time soon.

‘Inside Job’ is the first film to provide a comprehensive analysis of the global financial crisis of 2008, which at a cost over $140 trillion, caused millions of people to lose their jobs and homes in the worst recession since the Great Depression, and nearly resulted in a global financial collapse. Through exhaustive research and extensive interviews with key financial insiders, politicians, journalists, and academics, the film traces the rise of a rogue industry which has corrupted politics, regulation, and academia. It was made on location in the United States, Iceland, England, France, Singapore, and China.

“Yet, subsidizing Wall Street’s most powerful creatures, altered nothing for the banks that survived, while promulgating ongoing economic pain for the general population caught in the wake of a $14 trillion dollar asset creation machine, which became a globally leveraged $140 trillion still-decaying mess, spurred by rapacious speculation, that sat on just $1.4 trillion of sub-prime loans and various other properties.

Banks want us to believe that widespread economic pain has nothing to do with them, that they were innocent participants. Maybe they made a few mistakes – for which they’re paying SEC directed fines, but hey, we all do.”
