It’s the best thing I’ve seen on television about the financial debacle unfolding this week–just as Phillips’ most recent book, Bad Money, is the best introduction to the perils of America’s financialized economy. (More: Phillips wrote about the Wall Street bubble at the American Prospect back in May.)

Highly recommended, and parsed into three clips below. Watch it all.
