Reality is stranger than fiction

I am shocked.
A while ago, I started getting interested in how economy works. Chomsky's 10 principles were a true wake-up call in that respect. And then this movie? Boom.
Turns out what I thought I knew about the system is only the tip of the iceberg. It's a revelation to see how this mortgage obligation system works, how people take a viable product and churn out side products of side products of side products with the sole purpose of making big money. Other people suffering in their wake? Who cares.
Mark's story was the one that hit me the most, because in spite of his cynicism and angry nature, he wants to believe there is still good in people. Something which was apparent in the restaurant scene.
World-class movie. I learned a lot and didn't even notice! This is how you do it.
