It’s forgotten because it was a natural reaction to living in a market society.

I’m sure Vice had a completely non partisan version of events.

Actually, kind of. It's more of a report without agenda, with interviews from the main players in government at the time.

The Big Short is a surprisingly great and rewatchable movie

Vice has some really good documentaries, the same can't be said for their articles

I enjoy some of there’s sure, but now they’ve gone completely off the rails. They recently released the most racist video since “Birth of a Nation” with a woman who started her own racist retreat and says that white people shouldnt have passports: LINK

It’s basically the book/HBO movie Too Big To Fail told through interviews with the big players: Paulson, Bernanke, Geithner, Bush, Obama, Buffett, etc. If you’re truly interested in the subject, those perspectives make it worth watching regardless of your views on Vice.

Well, not really natural when liberal politicians are allowed to assrape the standards; not to ignore that many lenders were making bank and didn’t protest.

That’s an inaccurate way of thinking about money. Easier to think money as a living organism. Politics don’t natter to it, crime doesn’t matter to it. There’s a lot of money out there and and it will do whatever it wants no matter what the people who claim to control it think they can do.
These groups have their niches, but really, impossible to truly affect it.
I cannot over state how much money is in the world

It was actually pretty good. I watched it yesterday.
It is full of interviews with all the big names.
My favorite part was when everyone talked about their reactions to McCain suspending the campaign and the meeting at the White House with Bush, McCain, and Obama where McCain completely fell flat. There was no slant to it because the Republicans and Democrats they interviewed basically were like "McCain really fricked up there".
