This is excellent. David Cay Johnston is a fantastic reporter, I recall in 2005 he did some great investigative work that highlighted a series on middle-class economic turmoil in the NY Times. I wish we could see more of him on television. -WB

on edit:

David Cay Johnston's wikipedia, it has some worthwhile links to his NY Times articles too:

1. Our Government is Extremely Corrupt

it serves multinational corporations, the wealthy and that is all. They basically ripped off the common American tax payer in broad daylight.

3. Yep, the bailout money

was desperately needed RIGHT NOW because banks had nothing to lend. See how well it's worked?
