Maxed Out: Credit Card Industry Expose
Maxed Out is a new documentary out by James Spurlock, which details the credit card industry and the current state of debt in the US. I hope to see the documentary but it looks like it may be a while until it gets to either a theatre near me or to DVD.
The following is a excerpt from the synopsis.
Maxed Out examines an industry that thrives on making people fail, then pursues them relentlessly to death’s door. The film features a shocking interview with Bob and Chris—two idealistic entrepreneurs from Minneapolis whose “People First Recoveries” is buying bad debt all over the country in the hopes of huge profits. They’re going to make “People First” a big success by being shockingly duplicitous. To get psyched up, Chris and Bob imagine themselves as “debt pirates”, wrestlers and professional football players. The personal information at their disposal and the ways in which they are allowed to use it—calling people’s neighbors and relatives to humiliate them into paying, for example—are nothing short of terrifying for us, fun for them.
