given Wales UK 27 Sep 2008 |
| The present financial crisis does not merely have its roots in recent sub-prime lending, but in the last depression, when John Maynard Keynes set the basis of modern economics. In addition to the removal of the gold standard he stated: "...we must pretend to ourselves and to every one that fair is foul and foul is fair; for foul is useful and fair is not. Avarice and usury and precaution must be our gods for a little longer still." Such unethical greedy advice seems to have finally come back to bite us! (5.0 Mb) | ||
