This week's show combines two interviews from 1992. We hear episodes #483 and #484 of the classic independent media show, Alternative Views (which we last heard from in episode 695). The interviewee, Pete Brewton, gives a lot of details of what is generally agreed to be at least a 12-digit fraud (i.e. hundreds of billions of dollars). This was set up under the Reagan administration, made possible as a result of "deregulation" of Savings and Loan institutions, probably on the initiative of George H. W. Bush, who exercised control over the policy which transferred hundred of millions of dollars from law abiding US citizens to the criminal element. Our first hour is sourced from episode #483 of Alternative Views, detailing the mechanics of the S & L fraud, and the connections with some of the other criminal activities of what Oliver North referred to as "The Enterprise". After a musical interlude we proceed in Hour#2 with episode #484 (also from 1992) in which Pete Brewton explains how he first stumbled across the story, and gives some details of the difficulties he had getting it printed before the US Presidential election.
