Are Financial Institutions Holding Our Country Hostage? - "The Breakdown" Podcast

Chris Hayes at The Nation's "The Breakdown" podcast is joined by Mike Konczal of "Rortybomb" -

"During the 2008 financial meltdown, we were told by politicians, economists, bankers and industry executives that further implosion of major financial institutions would wreak havoc on the larger economy... But since the financial gains of the past several years haven't trickled down, many are wondering why we continue to be held captive by the same financial system that caused the mess in the first place. Finance blogger Mike Konczal joins Nation DC Editor Chris Hayes to discuss what's behind this 'financialization' of the economy, how it happened and whether there's anything that can be done to change it."
