American dream, american greed, its a very provocative title everything today we are in for a real treat. Were going to try to have a very lively 30 minute discussion and then going to try to leave room for about 10, 15 minutes of obvious questions before we break, and we have a hard stop because of cspan2 today at 10 50.
