In Response To: HATONN'S "GROUP OF 6" DECLARE "DURHAM INSTRUMENTS A FRAUD"??? [WHAT THE HELL DID THEY TRY TO BUY THEM FOR IF "FRAUDULENT (watcher51445) Inside Job, Oscar-Winning Documentary that Cost $20,000,000,000,000 to Produce, Now Online (Free) In late February, Charles Ferguson’s film – Inside Job – won the Academy Award for Best Documentary. And now the film documenting the causes of the 2008 global financial meltdown has made its way online (thanks to the Internet Archive). A corrupt financial industry, its corrosive relationship with politicians, academics and regulators, and the trillions of damage done, it all gets documented in this film that runs a little shy of 2 hours. Inside Job (now listed in our Free Movie collection) can be purchased on DVD at Amazon. We all love free, but let’s remember that good projects cost real money to develop, and they could use real financial support. So please consider buying a copy. Hopefully watching or buying this film won’t be a pointless act, even though it can rightly feel that way. As Charles Ferguson reminded us during his Oscar acceptance speech, we are three years beyond the Wall Street crisis and taxpayers (you) got fleeced for billions. But still not one Wall Street exec is facing criminal charges. Welcome to your plutocracy… You can check it out here http://www.openculture.com/2011/04/inside_job.html

The Merchants of Menace
The quality of mercy is not strained.
It drops as the gentle rain from heaven
upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
It blesses him that gives and him that takes.
The mightiest within the mightiest; it becomes
the banker better than his yacht, houses and credit cards.
Or his interceptor that shows the force of his financial power,
the attribute to awe and respect,
wherein doth sit the want and fears of presidents.
But mercy is above, all the interest paid;
it is enthroned in the hearts of rulers;
it is an attribute of God himself;
and earthly power doth then show like God's
when mercy seasons payments made
Today the bankers got their pound of flesh,
taken without a drop of their debtors blood,
by trickery and stealth they sold the bond anew,
Conditioning only bankers would on forfeit be paid,
Today their massive bonuses just keep on rolling in
thanks to discarding rules that friendly politicians gave
The few over the many have once again prevailed,
taking food from mouths of babes never leaving just a scrap,
So the world does bleed and people to riot make,
Named and shamed by the media all clapping all in glee,
whilst the financiers continue in their golden silent anonymity
Their selfish genes now in confidence grow;
Sneering at the masses all suffering down below,
but altruistic genes will in their off spring grow.
Inspired by the film Inside Job
