I wonder which way this "documentary" leans?

Since it's being recommended by a conservative columnist, I would assume that it leans in favor of protecting the free market from this sort of corruption.

Kathleen Parker conservative?--and Ferguson and Damon are too? Now that's funny.

Since it’s being recommended by a conservative columnist, I would assume that it leans in favor of protecting the free market from this sort of corruption.

Was this sarcasm? Kathleen Parker is no conservative, as demonstrated by the following statement:

“I’m not one to advance class warfare, and most Americans still want to preserve a market system that leaves open the possibility that they, too, can work hard and achieve wealth. But it’s clear from “Inside Job” that the game has been rigged so that only a few were in positions to get rich at the expense of the middle class, not just here but globally....”

This is nothing but left wing conspiracy theorizing. What’s next, 9/11 was an inside job, too? I love the “I’m not one to advance class warfare” ...(but it is justifiable considering that the filthy rich defrauded the world) construction. Come on, Kathleen, this sort of cheap rhetoric is beneath even a pundit as low as you are.

The economic crisis that we now deal with was decades in the making. It cannot be attributed to greed or malfeasance, although these things were evident at times. Bad decisions were made in high and low places, but for the most part they were made in good faith.

I sense a growing populist know-nothing spirit developing on this board. Use you heads my friends or you will lose them to some unscrupulous populist far more dangerous than Mr. Obama.
