If you are like me, you have little idea how this financial crisis started and you have even less of an idea of how we can get out of it.

Well, here is a good start. Bill Moyers interviews Kevin Philips, who pretty well predicted this would happen. You can watch the video or listen to the audio file.

From the PBS site.

Bill Moyers sits down with former Nixon White House strategist and political and economic critic Kevin Phillips, whose latest book BAD MONEY: RECKLESS FINANCE, FAILED POLITICS, AND THE GLOBAL CRISIS OF AMERICAN CAPITALISM explores the role that the crumbling financial sector played in the now-fragile American economy.
