I recommend Doug Henwood at

It is fairly painless and has great musical segments in it, but so 
did Paul Krugman's blog recently.
"Shock Doctrine" is a little extreme in my opinion but by that it 
makes sure that you get the point.

After the fact financial forensics are interesting but what now needs 
to be done and who needs to do it? The only certainties seem to be 
held by the Tea heads and that is that the Obama presidency must be 
destroyed while we are all held hostage. The world may be ruled by a 
roomful of 26-year old bond traders in London so we have no reason to 
expect an improvement
I'm up for political solutions.
