The worst thing about takes like this is it assumes none of the bankers and government officials communicate.

It sets up this nice and tidy semantic bubble that ignores the messy reality of these folks socializing together.

Just because the paperwork is in order does not mean these people do not collude and influence each others emotions to empower themselves and just legislate their mess away or get bailed out.

Your entire finance system is a joke because your society and culture are a joke. We keep taking marching orders from post-war shellshocked, Cold War paranoids, leaded gas huffers in the Boomers and GenX. 2000, 2008, and again here we go eating their shit.

We coddle people who cannot grow a potato for themselves. What are octogenarians and their progeny whose only skill set in life is “inherit dads imaginary money?” going to do if we quit logging in and showing up?
