Great Depression Not Imminent, But Inevitable [View article]
one difference between now and 1929 is the presence of large, unregulated pools of money, e.g., hedge funds. in 1929 the unregulated money was investor leverage. post-crash laws eliminated the excesses, but, per darwinian law, the "new rich" money has found a way around that-- some of it even found its way into unregulated pools of quicksand -- "Ponzi schemes" -- i wonder how much wall st. bonus money in this way has passed from one unethical parasite to another?
