I believe the retirement crisis will get even worse. Many struggle to save due to low wages, rising prices, and exorbitant rents. With homeownership becoming unattainable for middle-class Americans, they may not have a home or Finance to rely on for retirement either.

I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

Make the stock market illegal. Make tax avoidance illegal. Make lobbying illegal.

Credit is a money manipulation and laundering scheme. It destroys our economy and erodes civil society.

@PreciousBoxer April 29, 2025 - 5:11 pm

And now Trump is destroying what remains of democracy and a civil society.

We did not all pay for the mistakes of the banks, of the elite and the crooks. We still pay to this very day.

You know the biggest joke? Money does not even exist. It is an electronic signal whizzing about over our heads, a billion trillion dollars/euros/pounds/yuan/yen per day, being gambled in the great casino known as Forex, or FOReign EXchange, being the buying and selling of currencies, travelling along a very private, Banks-only system known as Swift. Banks could ruin any country's currency in a single day, if the banks don't like that country's financial policies. Subprimes? they are the craps table, when the big money is on the Roulette wheel, Forex.

PBS itself is a media outpost of the rotten american empire. The same empire devoted to Fossil Capital.

"Wow, what an eye-opening documentary! 💥 The story of how Wall Street’s greed led to the financial crisis is both shocking and heartbreaking. The rise of credit default swaps, synthetic CDOs, and subprime mortgages created a perfect storm that has had long-lasting effects on both Wall Street and Main Street. 😱

Desiree Fixler’s story is a stark reminder of how deeply intertwined the world of finance is with our everyday lives, and how a lack of regulation and transparency can cause massive harm. 🌍💸

The question remains: How do we prevent history from repeating itself? Can we trust that the banks and regulators have learned their lesson? 🤔💭

Let’s keep this conversation going! Drop your thoughts below—What do you think needs to change in the financial system to prevent another crisis like this one? 🔥

And don't forget to like and share if this documentary opened your eyes to the financial world’s inner workings. 📲💬"

Praetorian of the modern world. USA is now entering 3rd century crisis and Donald Trump is Caracalla

@godheadwallen April 29, 2025 - 5:11 pm

Create wealth for the banking cartel s. Look at the modern rules of banking. These people are thieves. Simply thievery. Look at who is at the elm of the wealthiest companies and who were at the elm of receiving the bailouts. The American people are suckers to enriching these people who believe that America is a liability to them.

Wall Street is garbage. So corrupt.
