Oh god this video.
I'm not going to pretend that I know what's going on with the U.S. financially, and I can see why some people agree with this.
But come ON
hurr I bought a house I couldn't afford.
Does anyone have that image explaining the dozens of way this video is wrong?
The entire Rothschild thing feels like veiled racism.
Herpy da derp I'm gonna buy things I can't afford. Oh I'm broke now? This system is clearly broken.
The video is wrong but the problems are right. The economy is fucked. Simple as that. No need to bring the Illuminati conspiracies in to this. The real reason the US economy is fucked is because of how much debt it is in. Yes it was the bank's fault, but the video's take on it is complete bull. Especially the part on loans. The system isn't broken because it takes your money, it's broken because it gave you more money than you could pay back.

I chose to interpret this as Piles delusional mental breakdown after loosing his entirely livelihood from an immature and needless financial expenditure and/or possibly getting hit by a car.
Think about it, after a sudden flash he's visited by an adult version of an old childhood friend who he's never seen in years who takes him through a journey that essentially demonizes and blames the banks for almost all of the U.S' troubles. As things go along the delusion becomes more and more intense, making things become less and less sensical and having more basis in pop culture and half truths; turning the Red Shield group into a bunch of stereotypical villains and crooks.
Heartman represents Piles' inner desire to find any excuse other than blaming himself for his current state. He's cool, tough, "smart", and also owns what looks like a beefier version of Piles' dog, possibly making Heartman the person Pile wishes he was (I.E not a pillock). Even though he does mention it's Piles fault for loosing his home, he essentially goes out of his way the entire time remind him that Pile is just another victim of a grand conspiracy that's out to get everybody. to The only other prominent recurring character is the "banker" who took away his dog and foreclosed his house. During the entire video he's made out to be nothing but a spineless lacky, a thief, and a tool. At one point he's brutally hanged after being attacked by an angry mob.
The entire thing is a man whose used to middle class comforts loosing his mind and being unable to cope, constructs an elaborate fantasy where he and a group of other shirtless men with great pecs rise up to literally kill a giant evil foreign bank that's controlling the world.
[sp]Obviously not being completely serious but you get my point, the video is just goddamn silly.[/sp]
