If you haven't already done so, I recommend reading The Big Short (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Short) and watching Inside Job (linked below).
I've currently just begun reading "It's the Economy Dummkopf!" an article by Michael Lewis for Vanity Fair. (http://www.vanityfair.com/business/features/2011/09/europe-201109)
[Edit] Finished it. Hmm. His writing for Vanity Fair is a little different from his writing in The Big Short.
