... also "Inside Job" gets into "captured" regulatory agencies (like
SEC) having major role in the economic mess ... but also gets into the
capture of major economic advisors as contributing ... including after
the bubble hit, advice to wallstreet to put as many under financial

responsible
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside_Job_(2010_film)

the capture of economists is also covered in "Economists and the
Powerful: Convenient Theories, Distorted Facts, Ample Rewards"
