      Yo you all need to take an economics class, i promise you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Don’t worry i used to believe that crazy conspiracy shit too…then i got an education. First off, to whoever said this, the fed doesn’t loan money to investment banks unless they’re in danger of failing, they’re the ones who regulate banks, or are supposed to regulate banks even though they don’t. Investment banks get money from investors not the sky or the fed, that’s why they’re called investment banks. Don’t get me wrong the fed is some fucked up shit but they’re not nearly as significant as you think they are. Check out the bilderbergers if you wanna see some real fucked up shit. Just try to pay attention to this documentary, it clearly and concisely explains what really happpened leading up to 08′.

      For once I would like to see a documentary which shows the US Gov’t thieves and their role and passage of laws that allowed all this to happen. This film depicts how “Wall Street” held our Gov’t at gun point and forced them to change the way things are done, and only the bankers made off with the millions, billions, & trillions.

      What good are regulations & laws, when the SEC Finra, DOJ, FBI, and all the other agencies won’t enforce what is already on the books. Blame the bankers all you want for their greed, and I do agree they are/were greedy. But someone please do the justice of showing how a US Senator or Congressman earning $125,000 a year, leave office as a millionaire. Someone please expose the Gov’ts involvement in forcing the banks to make bad loans. CRA & red lining. This started WAY before 2001.

      Yeah, the banks are corrupt but not nearly as corrupt as our Government officials. And to think we elect them.

      This documentary has huge problems in logically tracing the root of the problems behind the disaster the world felt in our finances. The BIS (Bank of International Settlements) and the central banks of the world are the ones that create the money. The banks are the ones that lend the money and the people that have deposits in these banks or whom allow willingly these institutions to exist are more at fault than anyone else. Keynesian economics and the fallacy of Government intervention in markets is what has destroyed the America economy, the EU economy, what destroyed the Icelandic economy. Where did these countries get all this money…….Central Banks…… In the US we have a central bank that is a private corporation. We need sound money and sound markets. When central banks are allowed to work as a the arm of the government it creates systemic bubbles. The US was allowed to stand as the Reserve Currency of the world because we backed everything in gold, the productivity of the US caused a great transfer of wealth in payment of trade imbalance to the US in the form of gold, leading to the vast majority of the worlds gold being held by the US. In order to fund the expenditures of the Vietnam war, we printed more money without acquiring the gold to back it up and the world eventually found out. Nixon, rather than try and back the currency up with gold or tell the world the US had been spending without adding more gold, ended the gold standard and now we are without any real value. The natural markets are circumvented by global central banking systems and sovereign nations printing money to stay ahead of bloated social programs.

      This documentary is absolute bullshit. The filmmakers doesn’t even mention the major culprit of this financial disaster – The Federal Reserve.

      Where do they think the investment banks got their money from? From the sky? It came from the Federal Reserve who kept interest rate at record lows.

      And then interviewing Keynesian after Keynesian, even the criminal Soros, to add weight is just a travesty.

      • Col

        The documentary deliverers what on it set out do. Explain how the scheme worked within Wall Street. If enough attention gets on the corruption in Wall Street the Federal Reserve will be next to face the heat.

        I know it comes down to ending the Federal Reserve but there are other stories at play and this is one of them.

          This documentary is clouding the truth…which is very frustrating as this is obviously done by intelligent people and has some good chemistry to it.

      There are few guys here who are themselves ‘derivatives’-as in the phrase ‘a piece of work’

      The two paid defenders of banking-would be able to argue that the earth spins in a contrary motion than is the actual case known and accpted laws of physics. Whch scenario if it were to practically occurr would stall the planet!

      Figuratively-in a fiscal sense-ithey-the ‘banking class’ -did stall the planet.

      It really is bullshit, action is going to be required on some part, somewhere. This cannot be allowed to go on and if it is and the middle class/lower class become the same 99% while 1% enjoys the luxuries of millions of dollars… things will change and the United States may not be as immune to revolution akin to what is going on in the middle east as we may think we are. “that will never happen here” say the rich and wealthy… “we’ll see” says the rest.
