Zusammenfassung:Five years ago, a financial crisis unlike any in generations rocked Wall Street, turning a recession that was already hammering Main Street into the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. In the months before President Obama took office, the economy was shrinking at a rate of over 8%. Businesses were shedding 800,000 jobs a month.

It was a crisis that would ultimately cost millions of Americans their jobs, their homes.
