Danny Schechter,资深记者，基于自己最新的出版书《Plunder》，通过多方采访，将2008年美国华尔街引发的金融危机做了详尽的分析。银行家将房屋贷款精心包装，作为一个商业产品，通过各家保险公司的认证，放入金融市场进行炒作。从最基层的银行房贷经纪到政府金融监管机构，都对这种将债务做投资的行为置若罔闻，甚至丧失天良的参与进了这场时代的骗局。 寻常百姓的房贷在金融市场上，以几十倍甚至上百倍的价格被炒作着。对冲基金推波助澜，当房产泡沫最终被吹爆的瞬间，华尔街的上市公司Bear Stearns(贝尔斯登)瞬间宣布破产，政府扶持的房贷公司，无数投资人的资金瞬间蒸发。而一切不幸也成为了少数人敛财的机会，银行家JP Morgan暗箱操作，以$2每股的极低价格买入贝尔斯登(当日市值为$20多每股)，而美国政府的Bail-Out(救急资金)则变相的以薪水和年终奖再次入了高层CEO和资产拥有者们的钱包。某些人以卖空操作，在贝尔斯登破产前的一周内，以$170万的投资盈利$2.5亿，就如9/11恐怖袭击前的几天，有人卖空事发航空公司获得巨额回报一样，似乎早有人预知了一切，而这2次极异常的卖空操作都必须经过证监机构确认后才可以实行。 平民百姓不得不承受越来越高的房屋贷款利息和美国政府的国债及其金融市场的损失。

In America's earliest days, there were barn-raising parties in which neighbors helped each other build up their farms. Today, in some churches, there are debt liquidation revivals in which parishioners chip in to free each other from growing credit card debts that are driving American families to bankruptcy and desperation. IN DEBT WE TRUST is the latest film from Danny Schechter, "The News Dissector," director of the internationally distributed and award-winning WMD (Weapons of Mass Deception), an expose of the media's role in the Iraq War. The Emmy-winning former ABC News and CNN producer's new hard-hitting documentary investigates why so many Americans are being strangled by debt. It is a journalistic confrontation with what former Reagan advisor Kevin Phillips calls "Financialization"--the "powerful emergence of a debt-and-credit industrial complex." While many Americans may be "maxing out" on credit cards, there is a deeper story: power is shifting into fewer hands.....with frightening consequences.
