Poll question: Have you seen "INSIDE JOB"
Edited on Mon Mar-14-11 01:35 PM by dotymed
The award winning documentary about our global "Financial Meltdown?"




YES


NO

I've never conducted a poll on DU.
Maybe just "rec" if you have.

4. Yes, I saw it. Quite an eye-opener, although we knew there was alot
behind the scenes. I just didn't know how much. Probably still don't.

Why are half of the actual, real-life people in prison? Maybe that question is too simple.

7. Yes
Saw it during the theatrical run. Afterwards I was in a mood foul enough to spit nails through a brick wall and start building a guillotine.

14. hifiguy, so was I. I rented it though.
Also, I rented it for my daughter, who gets her teaching degree this tear. I returned it before she watched it though. I know that she should be well aware (especially as a teacher) of what has happened and continues to happen to the majority of us. However, I know the impact (very disturbed at least) that this documentary had on me. She is a serious student, who has recently "found" religion. I only ask that she not pass judgments, yet after that movie especially (and I knew most of those facts) I was very judgmental and, yes, foul. I hope she decides to rent it and become better informed about the continuing nature of the "take-over."
I just did not want to be the person who peed in her cereal. I actually agonized about it.
I can not fathom, people watching this Documentary and not taking to the street to demand. in mass, the return of our nation and its wealth.....disturbing...

12. Yes. The main takeaway? It was the regulators who fucked up. The bankers were assholes
but I think they were working within the constraints of these atrocious half assed laws. The Regulators and Fed dropped the ball big time.

15. Yes. I own it so I can show others what happened.
I also show it to show why there is little change despite the political rhetoric of both sides.
