Genius Video: Bank Bailouts Explained - The Screwing Of The American People

Source

The story of the bank bailouts, and what we've gotten so far in return.

I thought this video was great and although it is presented in a kind of corny way it provides good points for what the hell is going on.

Hopefully we can show others this break down of what is going on and some might get it.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy.

Any thoughts?

If this is genius in your world, Id hate to live in your world.

Can you make me a cartoon about Pearl Harbor so i can fully understand it? Or maybe an anim,ation of Brittney Spears first video, so i can catch all the nuance? What about a reconstruction of the first episode of "Glee" so i can hear you sing all the parts?

Jesus, relax. The title I used was from the original article where the video is from. I just simply copied and pasted the title from there.

Genius might not be the word to describe it but it is informational.

It would, indeed, suck to live in a world where everyone else is smarter than yourself. Op, thanks for sharing. I'll show this video to my fellow neighbors whom are always trying to bite their left ear, I'm sure they would respect the point that it is trying to get across.

I know people use the robot reader to stop from having to do retakes and etc...but that sh*t is annoying...and lame


When I'm surfing YT I'll pretty much write a robo-reader video off within the first minute if it doesn't grab my attention immediately

Sadly there will be many people that watch this video and still not understand what exactly is going on.

They should show this to every child in America.

There will always be people that are willfully ignorant and there is nothing we can do about that. It would be nice if it were not like that but when SHTF those people will have no idea how we got there, so it is their own problem.

I agree with the child statement, children should be taught what the economic system is in school, rather than leaving it as a mysterious entity that even very few adults understand.

Loved the voices, loved the video, loved the spirit of this little missile.....
I hope it hits where its aimed because it is poignient and telling. (tellingly poignient?)
Pretty good without making me want to look for a rope....

It's a great video OP... I've watched it before and got a great laugh from it. Short, sweet, and straight to the point.

Now if only they'd make a video explaining Wall Street's new catchall meaningless word "derivative"... (stolen from everyone's ever-so-favourite branch of mathematics - calculus).
