John Stewart interviews the authors of a new book about the subprime and derivatives-driven financial crisis. Caveat: Stewart manages to work in one f-bomb. The authors claim that the bank regulators required state attorney generals to role back rules that regulated predatory lending and that Wall Street blames the whole mess on the stupid consumers that bought houses they couldn’t afford. Ironically, we are being encouraged to both save and borrow to save the economy.
