PBS NewsHour: "Why many Americans feel unhappy about the economy despite indicators of improvement"

There’s a great movie about the mortgage crisis of 2008, “To Big to Fail”

The gov gave banks a $135M bailout.
TARF? TARP?

In the following few years, bank gave top exec’s bonuses of … wait for it…$135M

I don’t think that answers my question but to answer yours…

I’ll bet the farm at least one more than a poor family or poor person ever did.

Sidenote here: too many congressmen in Washington are old white males with degrees from private colleges. They come from the “bootstrap it” background; they have not been divorced with a woman’s [lower] income and two or three children to raise singlehandedly. I support term limits.

I think everyone but elected officials wants that. Alas, won’t happen
