For all of her claim to outsider status: female…………, Clinton has been part of the political establishment for decades. And after profiting from insider info via boks and speeches, she has little connection with ‘common folk’ no matter how folksy she pretends to be. Bernie, on the other hand has been in the trenches for decades. When it comes to realistic “outsiderism’ Bernie wins handss down. Muckracker]

INot only is the movie an enjoyable (if that’s the right word) way to understand how the big banks screwed millions of Americans out of their homes, savings, and jobs – and then got bailed out by taxpayers. It’s also a lesson in why they’re on the way to doing all this again – and how their political power continues to erode laws designed to prevent another crisis and to shield their executives from any accountability.
Most importantly, the movie shows why Bernie Sanders’s plan to break up the biggest banks and reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act (separating investment from commercial banking) is necessary – and why Hillary Clinton’s more modest plan is inadequate.
