Casino Jack and the United States of Money Trailer

http://www.takepart.com/casinojackThis portrait of Washington super lobbyist Jack Abramoff—from his early years as a gung-ho member of the GOP political machine to his final reckoning as a disgraced, imprisoned pariah—confirms the adage that truth is indeed stranger than fiction. A tale of international intrigue with Indian casinos, Russian spies, Chinese sweatshops, and a mob-style killing in Miami, this is the story of the way money corrupts our political process. Oscar-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney once again wields the tools of his trade with the skill of a master. Following the ongoing indictments of federal officials and exposing favor trading in our nation's capital, Gibney illuminates the way our politicians' desperate need to get elected—and the millions of dollars it costs—may be undermining the basic principles of American democracy. Infuriating, yet undeniably fun to watch, CASINO JACK is a saga of greed and corruption with a cynical villain audiences will love to hate.

@Xchaoslord

Abramoff claimed to be an orthodox jew, although he went against his religion by being in cahoots with somebody who was the Prime Minister of Malaysia at the time, a man who was highly anti-semitic.

@coreyfuncrush i agree !! 100%..my country react in that way if it had those financial resources..our current prime minister is the worst in our country's history, and he just seems to jump on whatever band wagon your former and current presidents seem to be on...it is a sad state of affairs for both our countries..the universal health care we are so proud to boast is in some serious trouble more than ever now..corruption exists everywhere in the world..case closed !

@blica1 slightly sympathetic? This is awful. But this is only a small portion of americans. Power and Money corrupt. this is nothing new to humans. IF you think your country wouldn't be the same if it had the same amount of money, think again.
