What do members of this forum think of "A New Way Forward"'s video?

[clear eye]

The first part is a simplified step-by-step of the creation of the banking crisis, but it is reaction to the rest of the presentation that interests me. It's here: http://anewwayforward.org/doit.php and they must have a rather small server because the 33 min. video takes ~20 min. to download via broadband.

They show Stiglitz saying that unless the gov't "takes control" (not ownership) of the institutions in which we have purchased a majority stake, the outcome will be a "disaster". They also have another economist saying that watching outcomes in many countries has shown that economic recovery depends on reducing the power of their financial oligarchs, and that Japan's failure to do so is the cause of their 10-year recession and their continuing stagnant economy. This 2nd economist does advocate at least temporary gov't ownership of failed banks to change their practices.

1. No opinions? At all?

You know that you can still use your PC during the ~20 min. the video is downloading, right?
