2. Please, please, please, if you don't read any other book for the next
ten years, be sure to read Taibbi's Griftopia -- especially if you don't understand what happened in the economic meltdown. He explains in a way that is easy to understand.

Many, many people, probably many DUers were cheated by this mortgage scam. They were enticed or persuaded to take out subprime mortgages when the fact is that they would have bought either no house or a less expensive house or stayed in a house in which they had built equity or have insisted on a different loan if only they hand not been fooled.

Please, people. Read the book.

3. Spitzer: If The Attorney General Does Not Sue Goldman Sachs, He Should Resign
By: ZeroHedge

Now that Goldman is back in the spotlight following Carl Levin’s concluding report, referring Goldman Sachs to the same law enforcement authorities that are overeager to get a job at none other than Goldman (the most recent example of which came yesterday when Bank of America which hired Gary Lynch, a former director of enforcement at the SEC, to head its legal, compliance, and regulatory relations efforts) for misleading investors and perjury, the wave of indignation at the glaringly obvious is once again back in vogue.
