Description

Shows several fat cat businessmen floating to the ground attached to parachutes as they bail out of a doomed aeroplane named 'US Economy'. Refers to the Wall Street crash of September 2008 and the idea that the captains of the banking industry are saving themselves and their own fortunes as those less well off lose out. The bailout was the $700 billion that the government made available to try to prop up failing banks and finance houses.
