A Compelling, if not contrarian, View of the Financial Crisis by Dave Harvey

This animated RSA lecture is remarkable on two fronts. First, it is a profoundly different read (warning: Marxist) of the origins of the financial crisis. Second, the use of animation to reinforce the very dense subject matter is remarkably effective. If you do not agree with the argument try to appreciate the skill of the combined and reinforcing media-type. Marshall McLuhan devotees will enjoy this completely – yes, the Message is the Media. Please let me know your thoughts.
