All I can say right now is, go see this gripping movie.
It's about the global financial crisis,
but it's like a crime thriller : it IS a crime thriller!
It explains the global financial crisis meticulously.
And explores the love nest that is Wall St and govt,
& now the universities,
which have organized their economics departments to perpetuate
what one interviewee calls America's "Wall St Government".
It reveals the buzzing hives of sleaze and greed
behind the shiny facade of institutional legitimacy
(govt, universities, corporations),
how they scratch each others' backs to steal our money, the lot.
These are our lives these people are messing with.
Watch how they play god.

I am not sure who the author of this is, Vic or Alex, so I am going to send you both a link via email. It is a very long message on this subject and am sure you have already seen it, esp. if you follow "inflation" websites.
College expenses are a "rip off". Esp. Text Books. Students now paying $100 for a book with no resale use because the system is gamed to make small changes to the text to make other obsolete. Many times is the same professors or colleges that publish the books. That is only one example of how education expenses are out of control due to the greed of a few. See the link for the whole picture.
I posted this from Olivia's blog since it was another view on this recession and some of the moving parts. VA
Now I understand the "Olivia" at the end. Wasn't sure what it was for. Guess I will get to know who Olivia is once I settle in here.
That is a GREAT movie and everyone should watch!
