The fact that Wall Street crashed in 2008 is not news, nor is the consequent global recession. What may surprise you, however, is just how far back and how deep the connections that caused this great financial crisis actually go. According to investigative journalist Robert Scheer, it isn’t one political party that carries the blame. In fact, Scheer holds the feet of both Reagan and Clinton to the fire. From free-market Reagonomics propaganda to Clinton’s financial clique and a sobering look at where some of the responsible parties are now (I’ll give you a hint—it rhymes with Mixteen Bundred Stencilvania Ave.), Scheer tracks the meltdown back to the middle and around again.

As Wall Street Posts Record Profits and U.S. Hunger Rate Grows, Robert Scheer Asks: “Where Is the Community Organizer We Elected?”

The four largest firms took in $22.5 billion in profits through September. Meanwhile, far more people are going hungry in the United States than previously thought. The Department of Agriculture estimates 50 million Americans, including a quarter of all children, struggled to get enough to eat last year. Amy Goodman speaks to veteran journalist Robert Scheer.
