The Con

Democracy on the Move

In this episode, we're joined by Patrick Lovell, the creative mind behind the eye-opening documentary series The Con. Our conversation digs into the critical issue of how major financial institutions, with the tacit approval of a complicit government, have manipulated the United States' financial system. We explore the troubling "revolving door" phenomenon, where government officials, responsible for regulating banking laws, seamlessly transition to roles within the banks they once oversaw. This practice has facilitated numerous inside jobs, often at the expense of the average American worker.

The 2008 financial crisis, far from being an isolated event, was merely an attribute of a continuous and systemic exploitation of America's financial systems by those positioned as guardians of our economic well-being. Through years of meticulous research, Patrick Lovell has uncovered the deteriorating integrity within the finance sector's legal and regulatory framework. His documentary series The Con is an essential watch for understanding this complex and significant issue.

Join us as we discuss the intricate and alarming details of what might be the largest racketeering conspiracy in global history, one that continues to impact us all.
