I finally got around to watching this. Everyone in the US should see this. What we have now is a bunch of criminals running the banks. That's why we call them banksters. As some of the interviewees point out it is very difficult to prove the cases. The sad thing is that Senator Kaufmann who took Joe Biden's place until and new senator could be elected and ran a investigative panel expected the Justice Department to investigate and indict some of these corporate CEOs. No, instead the government made a smattering of arrests of small fry including small mortgage brokers. The concern was that such arrests would lead to the collapse of companies like Goldman-Sachs, B of A, CitiBank, etc. And no, no, we can't have that as it might bring down the economy. Well, it's bringing down the economy anyway! Let's have some justice for a change but I don't expect it with the Obama Gang.
