JON STEWARTS TAKE ON GEORGE BUSH'S WARNING TO THE G-20


George Bush, host of the g-20 summit defending the free market system and advising the attendees not to change the world economic system.

GEORGE BUSH:

It's what transformed America

It is far more than econ theory
It is the engine of social mobility
The highway to the American dream
It's what makes it possible for a husband and wife to start their own business
For a new immigrant to open a new restaurant

JON STEWART:

For a twenty something derivative trader to make a 30 million dollar bonus for pushing imaginary money from one unregulated house of cards to another unregulated house of cards in the process of bankrupting millions of people who actually work for a living. In other words, If its broke, don't fix it.
