It had NOTHING to do with Bush/Obama and everything to do with Clinton being hustled by Greenspane deregulating bank mergers that was set into place after the great depression. A true frog and scorpion scenario unfolded after that.

Finally, after time goes by I'm sure will see more of the truth, but it was amazing how truly close we got to a real life changing financial meltdown.
Fuck, Reagan did more shit to start this than any president since. The deregulation of the banking industry killed us.

I watched half of the movie and never finished it because I was getting too pissed.
