After watching the Inside Job, I feel aware but also frustrated because of all the monstrosities that happened behind the curtain. Ignorance might be bliss but I would rather be more know of what is happening in the government and the economy. Especially from what happened in the US in 2008. The US government and economists have created a game in which they win but screw everyone else in. The most corrupt part of all is that they make up and edit the rules, so nothing is in your favor. Why? Because they are the ones with power and money, which supposedly is makes the biggest lie in society today. It shouldn’t be about greed through power and money. It should be about making the world a better place. To solve that we need people who create dreams and not people who create nightmares. All this comes down to a lack of empathy and honesty, where the rich get richer and the poorer get poorer.

You are completely right, the frustration of knowing how corrupt the government is and how it was ran in 2008 is crazy and no one should have gone through that. I like that you say "the rich get richer and the poorer get poorer" it's so true in so many ways, and it was seen especially in the 2008 crisis.
