Neil Barofsky, former special inspector-general of the TARP & author "Bailout: An Inside Account of How Washington Abandoned Main Street While Rescuing Wall Street," joins Thom Hartmann. In 2008, we were all told TARP was needed to prevent a Great Depression. Instead - TARP funds have made the big banks richer - and given them an even greater feeling of invincibility. So how was this allowed to happen?

2. wish i could rec this ten million times..everyone needs to see this Tom

thank you so very much for this interview. I'm one of those victims he talks about..and my industry is a victim..and there was not a damned thing anyone could do about it. Many of us knew what was up as we tried to navigate thru their loan mod process..what a joke..and now a book from a TARP inspector general confirming what we knew...anyway.
