Dec 28, 2011 - This is a great episode as usual, however, I'm sick of Americans who don't understand how unique the golden US era (1947-1973) was. America was the sole manufacturing power fully standing after WWII. We were also the ultimate supplier and consumer in the world. In essence, my parents generation lived in bubble, fictionalize reality of the world. Capital had to play this game until the rest of the world could catch up and now American workers are feeling the effect.

Jan 9, 2012 - this is all by design,making promises that cant be kept,funded by a government interested not in its citizens best interests,but by political power and international world government,a government funded by a federal reserve central bank.If it were not for the central bank none of this would be happening,it wouldnt have got this far....Fiat fractional reserve economies are desgined to fail....Our is failing....Some republicans,very few are trying to salvage the dollar,but its too late.
krew666666 Says:
Jan 9, 2012 - the agenda isnt to save jobs,or create jobs,the agenda is a corporate fascist,world government,with the U.S. de-industrialized...feudalism soon follows then despotism,and tyranny.
catbuffalo Says:
Jan 21, 2012 - Then they aren't jobs worth keeping.

Mar 3, 2012 - It's always shocking and saddening to see that this kind of very important Al-Jazeera documentaries/news pieces have so few views. These should spread like wildfire, being that this subject for example is a very important one.Even though Al-Jazeera shows these on their television channel too.
