Inside Job Produced, Written & Directed by Charles Ferguson Narration Matt Damon (Actor) This priceless
documentary presents a devastating expose of the staggering Wall Street
swindle that caused the economic meltdown of 2008. The interview with
Martin Feldstein brought back to mind the hoopla of his appointment as
chief economic adviser to President Reagan. The movie points out that
Feldstein initiated the financial deregulation follies that led to the
looting of the Savings and Loans and culminated with the passage of the
Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000, the lead sponsor of which
was Senator Phil Gramm. It was truly depressing to see how this massive
swindle was pulled off through the collusion of the economic advisers,
politicians, high-flown professors of economics with scandalous and
highly unethical conflicts-of-interest, investment banks, and ratings
agencies. At the end of "Inside Job," Robert Gnaizda lists various
groups that should be prosecuted. When asked why this has not been done,
he answered: "It's a Wall Street government!"
