Friday Movie Night - The Shock Doctrine

hot buttered popcorn It's Friday Night! Party Time!   Time to relax, put your feet up on the couch, lay back, and watch some detailed videos on economic policy!

 

If you have not read Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine - The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, you should. I could not help but to think this latest debt ceiling crisis is being used as another opportunity. The threat of sovereign default, which is horrific and would be a disaster, is being held like a gun to the heads of America in order to destroy America's retirement and health care programs. With that we have a documentary based in part on Klein's book.
