  1. do you really think hollywood will tell the truth about ANYTHING? do you really
    feel that ultra liberals will tell the truth about anything? brad pitt’s wife is a member
    of the CFR for example. brad pitt thinks hillary is a goddess to be worshipped.
    expecting the truth out of the film industry is lucicrous!

    • Roger – you are a bit cynical. While I think Hollywood’s first thought is the bottom line, they also have done a lot to educate. 99 Homes, Wolf of Wall Street, Inside Job are just a few examples. I’m looking forward to TBS because it was the first book I read that identified the delusional personalities that run our financial markets. After reading the book (which was entertaining) I came away with the thought of “why would anyone invest in a rigged system?” When I read Flash Boys i knew it was definitely time to cash out the stocks and mutual funds.
