The only thing I have to say about the current economy is .. as follows.. one Senator or CEO.. saying..
..Hmm...
I did cause this, but in America we believe in the teachings of Gordon Gekko .. "Greed is good!" Why else "Wall Street" the movie, is a recommended must see in Business Schools. I thought I was the only one with this novel idea of making a lot of money and never expected that all my colleagues had the same one.
So what if I overindulged in greed, there is nothing illegal about it. And you say its unethical, hey I chose to be a capitalist - if I don't capitalize on opportunities, somebody else would. I was only digging graves, I never expected people will jump into it. It was their greed, that caused them to desire a lifestyle they could never afford. If I just brainwashed them by constant adds as to what they are missing in their lives and provide them money to acquire it, I'm only being generous.
I am pursuing "My" American dream, if it so happens to be a public nightmare that "your" grand children may suffer, its not my problem. If it was not for all my colleagues doing the exact same thing at the same time, I would have been super rich and the rest super jealous. But now it is affecting the entire economy and all my clandestine affairs are public.
Look its even on this stupid blog!
There is a reason why a Senator may also have this burden on his conscientious.
