Breaking down the Bail Out : This American Life

10.6.2008 by cleisdesign


Kudos to This American Life for taking the bull by the horns for a second time (see past show on the sub prime lending debacle). This time Ira Glass and Alex Blumberg dice out the economy swill and explain it so we can all filter through some of the mass confusion. I am still leary about why the tax payers have to fit the bill that all the multi-trillion commercial paper pushers (the banks and Wall Street) f*#cked up. I’m starting to understand what’s going on right now. I still believe there are a few financiers that need to serve some time or pay some heavy duty penalties for this.

The economy is a pretty scary place right now.

In the meantime-do yourself a favor and check it out.
