The videos are a great quick education.
actually the domino that started this was Phil Gramm pushing for The Glass-Steagall Act to be revoked. That happened in 1999 and it caused a bunch of this. That's why they put the act in place during the depression is it wouldnt happened again. After the act was revoked only 25% of all subprime loans fell under CRA.
