THC -- au contraire --- that is the way it is!! Surely you remember "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" --- where the doctors at a particular mental institution were crazier than the inmates?! So here, in the financial community, the leaders are, by necessity, also crazier than their followers! They have to be. How can it be otherwise --- in a world where nothing has any value, everything is in abundance, money is a commodity which can be printed at will, gold is a barbarous relic, no-one is indispensible, everyone has inaleinable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, where to have to work is a misfortune inflicted by fascists and capitalists and, consequently, to be to be paid for doing nothing is also everyone's birth-right. The maladie d'arrogance is not confined just to Cambridge professors --- it is in the genes of each and every one of us. "Like the Black Death, the disease of hubris has spread everywhere." PS. I'm surprised someone hasn't had something to say about the Black Death being a racist slur!
