I stumbled across this superb music video while searching Youtube for something else - an excellent visual/musical synopsis of our current economic quandary.
From Youtube:
Off the new NASHVILLE TRACKS album, ROAD TO RUIN was released in July 2009 by Brian Jay Cline (http://www.brianjaycline.com). This Johnny Punish produced video presents one man's view of the recession of 2009 and the economic fallout that has been hovering over the USA this past year starting with the credit crisis of 2008, foreclosures hitting middle America and the subsequent homeless problem created as hundreds of thousands hit the streets.
