Dear Education for Justice Members,
The $700 Billion Bailout brought on by the Wall Street crisis has created shockwaves here and around the world. The root causes and long-reaching impacts defy quick fixes, partisan posturing and easy answers. The market has failed on several levels.
Education for Justice has prepared a succinct, visual overview of the crisis and the intersecting causes and effects to help you understand the bigger picture. An accompanying background resource lays out the details, causes, connections and consequences.
We hope you will find it useful and invite your comments and feedback.
Peace and Blessings,
The Education for Justice Team |
