After watching the Inside Job what the American people who are mostly affected by high level of corruption do or would like to do ?

[opus4rv]

The worst part about 2008 is that all the people responsible got to walk away with all their money

[donnyariyono09]

It's like watching Roman empire all over again. A country belongs to the people not the other way around. There's a thin line between govern and conquering people, which is what they most likely do. Two thumbs up Charles for letting the world know through this documentary.

it doesn't matter who gets elected-wall street will be in control... the elective oficials are weak minded

I want to see the outtakes.

Banks are above the law.

[thechinadesk]

Champions of Big Government never tire of telling us how "more government regulation is needed."

They need to remove their blinders and realize that the very government regulators they wanted are part of the problem in the first place!

The only way to really eliminate Big Government/ Big Business collusion is to reduce Big Government to Small Government, depriving it of the power to confer benefits on Big Business.

@MrUSC07 that's why you vote Ron Paul. He'll start the process to stop all of this.

[McDouche77]

@aserino216

No he won’t, the issue is idiot Americans like you don't understand how the Administrative arm of your government works. If you did then you would not have senators that have maintained power for 30+ years.

[Tippersnore]

We now live with Obama-nation.

[MrUSC07]

This film forces you to realize how corrupt politicians are, even Obama....depressing. Very thought provoking film.

[RashidKhafan]

Such a huge truth and still 64,568 views!!! an enormous portion of Americans is still sleep...

[TheStepofDub]

One of my favorite points made in the documentary was when he was talking to the fellow from columbia, and says when the doctor writes a paper saying that this drug will cure a disease.. but makes 80% of the profit from that drug.

[TheStepofDub]

1:51 The people who robbed the banks went to jail for a long time. But when the banks steal from the people they only have to small fines..

[trombilly]

who CAN you trust? I mean ..... I think that our way out of this mess is for us-the people- to just let it go, not spend any more time supporting the very walls which prevent our natural freedom, borrowing, selling for profit-working for people who do, being consumers instesd of humans ..... it will be hard for a while but soon enough we would get it together! don't entertain the deteils of the past, start to work together to build a sustainable future, say 'no more' to playing the game.

[nicolibri]

Politicians deregulate the financial sector -> financial sector becomes powerful, contributes enormously to revenues -> politicians become dependent on financial sector for support -> further deregulation -> financial meltdown -> politicians rescue financial sector -> financial sector downgrades federal debt -> politicians introduce austerity measures. Congradulations, you work for the markets; you're fired.

[honeybozo]

excellent clear analysis; just watched his movie and it is a must-see. Not sure if I understand the quote "The film that cost over twenty trillion to make."

[nicolibri]

@honeybozo I suppose it's an estimate of the cost of the financial meltdown, without which the idea for this film would have never been born.

[watchstrap1]

i was angry,if i was a black american i would feel, uhmm whats the right word

[vikramsinghdafauti]

sir i really want to known is financial crisis a manmade catastrophy or not....

plz send me detail's.....on both side...

very essential to me

[nicolibri]

@vikramsinghdafauti Is the financial sector something organic? Since the 80s it has been operating in an increasingly regulation-free environment, so it has taken on a life of its own, but in my opinion the phrase "man made" isn't the best choice for a metaphor. Financial bubbles are trends of speculative behavior but are always "man made". A solid peace of advice I can give you is to watch "inside job", it's extremely well done and accessible.

[tp1murray]

@nicolibri The description containing the words “man made” are from the The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report. I’ll try to post links but if it does’t work there are links on my Channel’s Activity page or if you go to Scribd you can search for the name of the report.

Yep, for some reason I can't post links here.

[nicolibri]

@tp1murray Thanks a lot, I will. God bless.

[tp1murray]

@nicolibri One of them in the Conclusions, which is only 14 pages. The whole report is quite wordy containing 500 pages, as I recall.

[philyB08]

This movie should be mandatory in High Schools and Secondary schools business and economics classes.

[IamaFreeWillOffering]

At 13 minutes into the interview, in giving the reasons for Obama's refusal to do anything, Mr. Ferguson failed to include "SECRET PROMISED PAYOFFS" as a reason for Obama's inaction. Watching "Inside Job" however, will clearly show everyone Obama's strong support for the criminals by giving them Administration jobs and powerful appointments instead of the prison terms they deserved along with the confiscation of the financial assets they immorally obtained.

Obama is a criminal too!

[IamaFreeWillOffering]

This movie waits until the almost the very end to give COMPLETE PROOF that Obama IS A CROOK, SCREWED the American people, and will be amply rewarded for it in the years after his presidency.

The people who support Obama are fools and idiots.

[TheScotthutch]

I didn't hear any comment on the fact that Fannie Mae went into receivership FIRST, just seven days before Lehman, Merrill, & all the others. Her assets = $5.6TN Lehman 10% of that.

I'll have to watch the movie, but I have believed that low interest rates and FNMA's low income housing goals were the main drivers to the meltdown, even behind the corruption. I believe the Fed is over all the financial regulatory authorities, FDIC etc. Near 0% rates causes bad decisions and a lot of competition.

[IamaFreeWillOffering]

@TheScotthutch You definitely need to watch the movie. The cause of the meltdown was greed and ONLY greed. Fortunately, this movie shows the greed wasn't the working of just one political party but that there is a vast lack of character across the board. FEW people spoke up to try to stop the demise and they were maligned by those who were profiting. ALL THE CRIMINALS HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO KEEP THEIR HEISTS.

OCCUPY WALL STREET

[abraga123]

Thank you very much, Mr. ferguson. We are learning about how something like that can happen and your film is a great contribution to that.

[avkrules]

well said points on politics 14:45 onwards.

[TheBassplayah]

The fact that Tim Geithner and Larry Summers are in Obamas financial cabinet clearly show that the promise of change and the complete ownership of the govt by money is beyond the power of the people to control unless there is a landslide at the voting booth......Money buys elections and controls the media

[xtallyx1]

You are so right woodyouliketoknow, matt damon is the man !

Look hard enough and you will find the truth. This movie is the truth to about 90%.

[ndv180]

When a player shave points, profits, and gets caught doing so, they go to jail. What the Wall Street investment firms did was basically the same thing, except the collateral damage immeasurably worse.

[gatecomingdown]

Spills the Beans on O' Bummer Chance in a Life Time and he Blew It and he still comes out making statements that the protesters are expressing their frustrations at a broad scope of issues and we need a strong financial sector.That's right then why are there convicts still running the Banks and Wall Street you fucker Obama This is like having Sarah Palin as president  Fuck You Obama

No wonder you have Wall street Protests, I just watched City boy, about London investment bankers more of the same........unreal.

[brendasmith10]

Using tens of billions of dollars (of our money) these men created securities with the intention of causing them to fail so they could profit and bet against them… shame shame on you criminals in congress and working in our financial market place.

Obama what in the hell are you doing??? Are they holding a gun to your head??? These men are not to be trusted. How deep does this corruption go??? America is loosing it's freedom! We are heading for another dip in the economy (2011).

@brendasmith10 i know by now, you figured it out. obama owned by wall street. a wall street government, plain and simple. ron paul 2012. and god help him if he gets elected. the global gangster banks will likely murder him.

[TheColonelsKitchen]

Inside Job is an excellent documentary, but it falters at the 43 minute mark with a huge (deceptive) copout ... In answering the question of WHY so much corruption exists, the film shows all manner of the spoils of wealth (personal jets, million $ homes, drugs, etc). But these ephemeral possessions were only to pay off the "soldiers on the ground" who were doing the dirty work. The TRUE motive behind the mess was MONEY FOR ISRAEL: Trillions of U.S dollars directed toward Zionist goals abroad...

[garrington120]

Why Oh Why has Obama continued the employment of Henry Paulson , Geitner et al as his Fed and Financial advisors . He now looks as bigger foosl as Reagan , the 2 Bushes and to a certain extent Clinton .

The White ouse doesn't run the USA , Wall Street does . WAKE UP AMERICA

Someone said, "GOP and DEMS are just the same stuff." That's what I'd been thinking for a while, but this last fiasco has changed my mind. GOP with the ignorant tea party creeps wrapped into their mix has turned them into blatant abusuers the common good and of our tolerant culture. Patriotic they are not. Selfish and sinister are words I can't apply to most Dems, only to the current incarnation of the GOP.

[xxxzoso]

I'm really glad there are people in the world like Charles Ferguson who uses his intelligence, wealth, and ethics to point out things as they are, even if it's not the popular belief.

[DarkWriter31]

The capital injections into the largest nine banks (a Buffett brainchild, actually) w

[chodestein]

What bothers me intensely about this interview (and the movie) is how widely Ferguson misses the mark on Paulson. Did he make mistakes? Yes. Allowing Lehman to fall was arguably the biggest. Considering the speed and scale of the crisis, however, the man did an incredibly solid job. The financial world had never seen anything on par with this crisis and these guys were writing the rule book on-the-fly. Considering his position as Treasury Secretary under Bush, Paulson was an odd duck--fair

[mimana2]

@chodestein I read the messages you let here. I would imagine the reason why you let us think Paulson did the right thing. However, he's goal was to save the capital and grounds of the mega banks and savings of the wealthy investors, not the common citizens. The results are the fact that regular citizens can't find jobs, countries are bankrupt and bank owners have more money than ever today in 2011. Keep supporting these guys. Don't expect us to follow you.

Everybody knows there's money in Conspiracy Theories and Anti- Government books and videos. The only things they realy change is the content of your wallet.

[Shuvo2010]

It is great that someone like Charles Ferguson sticking to fact regarding the crisis...but In my humble opinion rather than focusing on individuals or systematic corruption of the financial system...we need to dig into the basic fallacy of this financial system...as long as we will deal with any financial transactions which is not backed up by physical asset...these kind of financial corruption will keep on repeating on different levels.....Interest on transactions is the key issue here

Always remember that Obama chose the head of General (Pay No Taxes) Electric as an "economic adviser."  Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama-ETC. The US government is corrupt to the core.

[yolowell]

Wow Charles Ferguson is the man.

[zekehooper]

I just watched this documentry and it is great! All the people that where the couse of the collapse should be rounded up and put down! It may not change anything but it will change it for those that are put down!!!!!!

ron paul 2012!



[woodyouliketoknow]

God bless Charles Ferguson's, non-partisan stance on cleaning up our financial system. He sticks to the facts. The public needs to support people like him, who know how the scheme worked. We are too consumed with Royal Weddings to look at who is taking our money. How ironic.

[groeneveldp]

@woodyouliketoknow you are dammn right they show us how they live a wealthy life with their weddings and we look at it as something devine while at the same time they steal our money.

" OBONGO" just said he would run for president again, If he arrested the corrupt bankers, who would contribute to his re - election campaign, by letting them free, he knows he can get at least a $ "BILLION" $ from them, if not, he has plenty of time to arrest them before his term is up.

The film that cost over twenty trillion to make." I hope there is a mistake there, else inflation sure has jumped!

[RangerMcFriendlie]

Derivatives wouldn't exist, or at least on the epic unholy level they do know, if we didn't have credit based fractional reserve lending. Being only required to keep 10% of assets and lending out 90% has created the shadowy world of credit derivatives, which aren't necessarily bad as they are basically insurance, but when lending out your money (which is fraud) is legal, then this becomes the norm; making money from nothing on top of more nothing.

Fiat currency is regulation. Less of it okay?

Yes Bush allowed it all. But Obama was too naive to make real change, and just listened to his advisers without a clue. This is probably the fairest assesment I have heard.

@logoself Bush didnt allow it all. Your not helping with Blame Bush propaganda.

"America has become a very different place, far from the dreams of its fathers." - Charlie Rose.

That's right, Charlie. In fact, Satanists are running the show. You were told to redraft your documentary not to change the focus from career-destruction to your main point- but, as always, to protect the big hidden secret society team members and their secret agenda: destroy America (and her Christian foundation) and form a North American Union, without a God-based rights Constitution.

It's odd how there can be a crime of this magnitude - a systematic crime of staggering proportions, carried out by the world's dominant financial institutions, whereby tens of millions are adversely impacted...yet when it comes to similar crimes committed by likeminded individuals beholden to the same vested interests and profit motives - and the subsequent cover-ups and denials of those crimes - people dutifully give them the benefit of the doubt; "Oh, they'd NEVER kill 3000 of their own!"

@rubyTee1920 True, but there's not a dime's worth of difference between the two Name Brands, which is precisely the strategy (Divide & Rule) of elites/social managers. That way the process of electoral politics -aside from affording Big Biz the most clout- is rendered meaningless, and so championed via establishment interests to keep the masses focused on the This-side/That-side sports mentality that corp media has conditioned the public mind to perceive as "reality." It's a phony rep democracy.

[G7130]

[Viracocha711]

Powerful stuff! The only thing I disagree with him about is the idea President Obama could have come in a changed this country in the magnitude he claimed...Yes, in a perfect world Obama could have but with a Republican Party that was so successful in dividing the public over a Health Care Law that was based on a GOP idea...There is no way in hell Obama would have been able to make sweeping changes that greatly empowered the Federal Government & upended the current power structure Wall Street!

[thedawn090]

@Viracocha711 Obama is a Trilateral Commission creation and a chess piece of Zbigniew Brzezinski. Presidents change, the geopolitical string pullers remain. Democrats and Republicans are wings of the same bird. That bird isn't an Eagle... it's a vulture. Politicians fly the colors of each political party to bemuse the public while moving in the same direction; away from freedom. David Rockefeller, Dupont, JP Morgan have hijacked the government starting with the FED.

[nanomyou5]

@thedawn090

Please take this illogical NWO-nonsense elsewhere.

Or come back when there is proof and not just insinuations.

Good movie btw, recommended to everyone interested in the financial crisis 2008.

[Viracocha711]

@thedawn090 Your comment is WOO-WOO! Waste someone else's time with that intellectually bankrupt crap! Watch your back the NWO is behind you!!!

[thedawn090]

@Viracocha71 Yes, Al-CIA-DA and Tim Osman are out to get you.... watch YOUR back.... primitive tribal people seem to outdue our intelligence agencies at every turn... it's amazing how Al-CIA-DA convieniently appear where the NWO need pretext to bomb. One day Al-CIA-DA is in Afganistan, then Pakistan, then Yemen. LOL! I'm intellectually bankrupt? Ha. You may not understand the machinations of big gov't but I do. At a deeper level only the self exists.. WAY... over your head.

[Viracocha711]

@thedawn090 LOL! Keep listening to Alex Jones he is keeping you informed with the truth the NWO does not want you to hear! Yet for some reason his loud mouth has been running on the radio & internet for nearly two decades telling you the "NON-SHEEPLE" the truths that the NWO would kill to keep secret!?!! LOL! OH YEAH, and Alex Jones has been rolling in the cash the whole time! LOL! You delusional paranoid people do provide the laughs that is FO SHO!

[kja5]

@Viracocha711 Alex Jones has never received a single cent from me, or from most of his listeners for that matter. How much money do the corporate banks receive from you? How much power do they receive from your pension/401k? How much money does the Federal government take from you in taxes, and spend on military bases, smart bombs, and aircraft carriers to harass and threaten the rest of the world?

But forget all of that nonsense. Alex Jones is the enemy! He is forcefully robbing all of us!

[Viracocha711]

@kja5 Look, there are real problems buried in your WILD & CRAZY conspiracies. My point is we the people need to use our government to solve these issues by VOTING! THERE IS NO OTHER WAY! If folks would simply pay attention to REALITY & VOTE we the people could get the changes we want! However, when you decide to stop thinking & follow the rantings of a mad man like Alex Jones you take yourself out of the process. And YES we can make the changes we want it just takes time & participation!

[G7130]

@Viracocha711 Correct, if you look at the pictures of cabinet members over the past 40 years, you will see similar faces. The wall street bunch run the government, anyone new that comes in has the "I will change how Washington works," however, they soon realize their not allowed to rock the boat for corporate America. No one challenges Wall Street types, its difficult to get the sector back under control as we've removed the speed bumps and speed limits and allowed them to be their own police.
