Description:
An engaging look at what led to the financial turmoil we now
find ourselves in
Bailout Nation offers one of the clearest looks at the
financial lenders, regulators, and politicians responsible for the
financial crisis of 2008. Written by Barry Ritholtz, one of today's
most popular economic bloggers and a well-established industry
pundit, this book skillfully explores how the United States evolved
from a rugged independent nation to a soft Bailout
Nation-where financial firms are allowed to self-regulate in
good times, but are bailed out by taxpayers in bad times.
Entertaining and informative, this book clearly shows you how
years of trying to control the economy with easy money has finally
caught up with the federal government and how its practice of
repeatedly rescuing Wall Street has come back to bite them.
The definitive book on the financial crisis of 2008
Names the culprits responsible for this tragedy-from financial
regulators to politicians
Shows how each bailout throughout modern history has impacted
what happened in the future
Examines why the consumer/taxpayer is left suffering in an
economy of bubbles, bailouts, and possible inflation
Ritholtz operates a hugely popular blog,

Scathing, but fair, Bailout Nation is a voice of reason
in these uncertain economic times.

Functional divider for windows privacy
Size: 8 Panel, Color: White, Size: 8 Panel, Color: White
I ordered both a six and eight panel version of the white divider. There was some confusion on the FedEx deliveries. The eight panel divider arrived at first, but Amazon showed both as delivered. I had to contact both the seller and Amazon to learn that the six panel divider was to arrive the following day by FedEx, which did occur. Both the boxes were a bit dirty and had some small punctures. This divider had a top area and bottom area set of plastic wrap tapes, both of which were loose or undone. (The eight panel divider was not so, and properly wrapped.) The top of thid divider looked a little dirty, but passable/cleanable. The seller should consider wrapping the entire product with bubble wrap to protect against potential delivery/shipping physical and water damage. (FedEx left the box by my outside door, which could have gotten potentially soaked in rain. One better be home to take delivery if the weather is bad.) This said, the divider was easy to set up, with all the metal hinges working. No assembly was required, just unboxing and standing up. The left side was a little uneven on the bottom with the first panel, but ok. In combination with my mini-blinds, it provides the additional layer of privacy I desired. I even don't notice outside headlights and tailights through the windows with my room lights on. Additionally, the divider is easy to adjust to allow access to my windows for opening and closing. So, no need for me to hang curtains and damage my drywall. Overall I give the product a C grade because of the lack of protection for the FedEx shipping. (As a former University told me years ago, "The A has been cheapened. In this class you will work for an A." And, I got a B. So, I am a bit jaded. :-)) Lastly, if one had cats and dogs, or even small children, the divider could be easy for them to topple over. I would not consider these dividerd in that case. My motto is, "Safety first."

Easy to assemble
Pleasing to the eye...Divides the targeted area very nicely and still lets light through. It appears the piece will hold up over time.

Very impressive!
Size: 6 Panel, Size: 6 Panel
I didn't think this screen could possibly be as good as some of the reviews seems to suggest but it had a good rating and seemed like it may be a good match for my needs, which were to create a backdrop for online meetings in my garage/home office. Wow am I surprised by the quality and functionality of this screen. 1) It is really maneuverable due to the two-way hinges. I felt like a kid with a new toy playing with all of the ways you can configure this screen. 2) It's very sturdy and yet light enough to move and store if needed. 3) No weird odors, has a light woody scent, barely noticeable. 4) Its a very high quality screen, beautifully built and very pretty. 5) Its dimensions are as described, a full six foot tall. I spent a lot of time shopping for a screen and am very happy that I chose this one.

Perfect experience ！！！
I love this divider. It is long enough and easy to move around. The 360° hinge can be adjusted to any angle I like. Perfectly hides the awkward corner so I can't see it all of the time. And the light color and pattern in the panels is beautiful. I will buy another one.
