Great Interview By Jon Stewart of Joe Nocera & Bethany McLain On Wall Street Fraud
The Daily Show With Jon Stewart | Mon - Thurs 11p / 10c | |||

This is the unedited version not all of which was televised. There is explicit language as Stewart gets into the book "All The Devil's Are Here" written by Joe Nocera & Bethany McLain.
Again this is NSFW - not suitable for work - because of language. But is is language we all need to hear, so, if you have to, put on some headphones and watch this at lunch or on coffee break.
Some of you know Nocera's work for the New York Times and some of you know McLain's writing from Vanity Fair. Before writing this book together, Nocera said he was already "mad" about how Wall Street worked but as he co-wrote this book he got "a whole lot madder", while McLain said, "before this book, I thought it was all a big accident, and then after I finished (the book) I didn't think it was a big accident."
Matt Taibbi On MSNBC's "Young Turks" On "Foreclosure Fraud"
Here's Taibbi's latest piece in Rolling Stone Magazine's November 10th issue:
Matt Taibbi: Courts Helping Banks Screw Over Homeowners
The foreclosure lawyers down in Jacksonville had warned me, but I was skeptical. They told me the state of Florida had created a special super-high-speed housing court with a specific mandate to rubber-stamp the legally dicey foreclosures by corporate mortgage pushers like Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan Chase. This "rocket docket," as it is called in town, is presided over by retired judges who seem to have no clue about the insanely complex financial instruments they are ruling on — securitized mortgages and laby rinthine derivative deals of a type that didn't even exist when most of them were active members of the bench. Their stated mission isn't to decide right and wrong, but to clear cases and blast human beings out of their homes with ultimate velocity. They certainly have no incentive to penetrate the profound criminal mysteries of the great American mortgage bubble of the 2000s, perhaps the most complex Ponzi scheme in human history — an epic mountain range of corporate fraud in which Wall Street megabanks conspired first to collect huge numbers of subprime mortgages, then to unload them on unsuspecting third parties like pensions, trade unions and insurance companies (and, ultimately, you and me, as taxpayers) in the guise of AAA-rated investments. Selling lead as gold, shit as Chanel No. 5, was the essence of the booming international fraud scheme that created most all of these now-failing home mortgages.
The rocket docket wasn't created to investigate any of that. It exists to launder the crime and bury the evidence by speeding thousands of fraudulent and predatory loans to the ends of their life cycles, so that the houses attached to them can be sold again with clean paperwork. The judges, in fact, openly admit that their primary mission is not justice but speed. One Jacksonville judge, the Honorable A.C. Soud, even told a local newspaper that his goal is to resolve 25 cases per hour. Given the way the system is rigged, that means His Honor could well be throwing one ass on the street every 2.4 minutes.
Foreclosure lawyers told me one other thing about the rocket docket. The hearings, they said, aren't exactly public. "The judges might give you a hard time about watching," one lawyer warned. "They're not exactly anxious for people to know about this stuff." Inwardly, I laughed at this — it sounded like typical activist paranoia. The notion that a judge would try to prevent any citizen, much less a member of the media, from watching an open civil hearing sounded ridiculous. Fucked-up as everyone knows the state of Florida is, it couldn't be that bad. It isn't Indonesia. Right?
