为什么值得读
- 以通俗易懂的方式讲清复杂的次贷崩溃细节
- 立场公正不偏袒，对两党政治人物一律严厉问责
- 令人大开眼界，深刻揭露金融机构的贪婪与掠夺
2008年爆发的金融危机仅仅是一场序幕。在泡沫与救助时代，Wall Street的崛起、崩溃与获救，正是坐落在美式政治与经济权力交汇处的掠夺者网络的登场盛宴。由金融巨头和听命于他们的政客构成的掠夺阶层，整整一代人以来权力不断膨胀，通过日益复杂的金融机制和政治操弄将财富向上转移。这场危机仅仅是他们如何劫持美国政治

……托儿，不论是编辑选了个最不着调的记者来报道这事，还是故意为之。在读 Matt Taibbi 的《欺诈之国》之前，我一直搞不懂为什么 Max Keiser 一再呼吁把银行家们送上绞刑架。这本书太让人大开眼界了。我甚至连里面提到的大多数金融工具都看不懂，但我看到的已经足够让我明白为什么 Max Keiser 喊着要把他们吊死了。Turner 的观点引发了恐慌……
…shill, whether the editor chose the most clueless reporter to write about the issue, deliberately or otherwise. I never understood why Max Keiser repeatedly called for the bankers to be hanged until I read Griftopia by Matt Taibbi. Its such an eye opener. I can't even understand most of the instruments involved I see enough to understand why Max Keiser called for their hanging. Turner’s viewpoint caused consternation…
Taibbi 出版了《欺诈之国》，我由衷推荐这本书。这或许是他党派色彩最淡的一部作品，因为书里所有人都有份挨骂：共和党人和民主党人一视同仁。甚至信不信由你，奥巴马也跑不了。他在解释复杂概念上很有两把刷子……
Taibbi has published "Griftopia", a book which I heartily recommend. Perhaps the least partisan of his works, because everyone in it gets it: republicans and democrats alike. Even Obama, believe it or not. He has a knack for explaining…
……他们是在制造认同还是制造异见，完全取决于眼下是哪个政党控制白宫和国会。所以他说对了一半。我是 Taibbi 文章的忠实粉丝，尤其是他的书。《欺诈之国》也写得很不错。他是个罕见的存在——一个在该批评自由派时也绝不嘴软的自由派。
…they manufacture consent or dissent depends entirely on what party currently controls the White House and the Congress. So he's half-right. I'm a big fan of Taibbi's writing, and especially his books. "Griftopia" was pretty good, too. He's a rare breed - a liberal who is also willing to criticize liberals when they deserve it.
……食品价格泡沫可能导致了当前汽油价格的暴涨 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2315894 另外那篇文章的作者（Taibbi）还写过一本关于泡沫的书：http://www.amazon.com/Griftopia-Machines-Vampire-Breaking-Am... 我目前掌握的所有信息显然都带有极大的偏见，把矛头指向高盛，但如果他们在食品、石油、房地产市场极端暴涨中的插手是……
…the foot price bubble may cause the current surge in gas-prices http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2315894 Also the Author of the article (Taibbi) wrote a book about the bubble: http://www.amazon.com/Griftopia-Machines-Vampire-Breaking-Am... All the information I have is obviously very biased towards blaming Goldman Sachs, yet if their involvement in the extreme price hikes in foot, oil, housing markets is…
