In Debt We Trust
Advertisements [?]
quote.....
This Danny Schecter expose uncovers the immediate burgeoning crisis presented by the emerging financial industrial complex that is creating a culture of debt servitude in America.

With consumerism the second biggest moneymaker of the US economy after the military industry, Americans must be forced to consume, or else that economy might just collapse. And luring people into consuming by promising them easy loans, has become not only an effective tool in this process, but yet another exceedingly profitable capitalist venture. How so? By locking an increasingly alarming number of Americans into a lifetime of debt and concurrent foreclosures and homelessness, by those greedy banks, credit card companies, financial corporations, and essentially government approved loansharks.
