Matt Taibbi piece that ops video probably pulled from. For those to whom this is news, don't pay yourself on the back, municipalities and states all over are doing this and have been for a while: https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/exclusive-excerpt-america-on-sale-from-matt-taibbis-griftopia-47769/

If you like the piece, Taibbi was one of the few who dug into and wrote about the great bailouts and all the scamming of American public at behest of lobbyists, the powerful and the "elected". He's got lots of other good work.
