Interesting little clip on how we got into the mess we're in. I'm not sure how accurate it is, but it explains things in a simple way to those of us not that knowledgeable in the banking stuff.

Hey Scott two words for you

There is validity to the original video and it is a thumbnail of some of the issues. This video I've attached is more techincal in nature and has to do with accounting issues and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that was enacted because of Enron, etc... It has huge ramifications for problems banks are having now. I know we are dealing with some of these issues every day.
It is fairly long and somewhat technical...but it does address issues you never hear about from the talking heads. If you are interested, this guy explains it in a way that is understandable.

Great link Steve, very informative and relieving. -
I'm no economist, but how does fixing the credit market help? If the unemployed consumer is at the start of the financial food chain, and they're not 'hungry', doesn't the rest of the chain go hungary as well?I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

The consumer is merely a link in the chain...neither the beginning or the end and while the consumer is weaker, the link isn't broken. The unemployed consumer is only a small percentage of the equation."Just because youre offended doesnt mean youre right." - Ricky Gervais

That was easy enough for almost anyone to follow.
I will be passing this along. -
