Episode Description

Our economy has been so artificially manipulated over the last 15 years that no one should be surprised at the bank meltdowns. Is the fiscal stress of our banking sector at risk, or will it be limited to a few smaller banks?

Recent revelations and the subsequent congressional hearings show that members of Congress prefer to attack those who expose government misinformation and censorship rather than conduct their Constitutional duty of oversight and reign in the out-of-control federal departments and agencies. All in all, we need less government, not more.
