I wasn’t able to make it to Rep. Carroll’s office yesterday. I didn’t want my first sit down with the House Speaker to be constantly interrupted by my sneezing and nose blowing (I was unaware someone can develop allergies in adulthood, you can, I did). I also awoke too late today to submit a question to President Obama’s online Town Hall meeting.
But I did just get done reading Rolling Stone journalist Matt Taibbi’s article “The Big Takeover.” It’s a detailed account of the biggest financial meltdown in history. The one we’re living through right now. Taibbi explains how Wall St. bankers brought the world to the brink of financial collapse in real terms, terms we normal people can understand. He names names, he provides dates and times. He does what no other reporter or journalist has done so far.
THIS ARTICLE IS A MUST READ!!!
