I enjoy a good conspiracy theory as well as the next guy…..I mean we have had good ones over the years….the Grassy Knoll, all the 9/11 stuff, ancient aliens caused the plague, and so on……I’m guessing that my readers have a few that they like over others…..like I said I good conspiracy is very entertaining.
Recently, I read one that made me chuckle aloud…….
(Newser) – Forget all those complicated economic explanations. The real reason for the financial crisis was simple: Bankers were doing too much coke, says a professor and former UK government drugs adviser. The drug made bankers “overconfident,” prompting them to take “more risks,” says David Nutt. Cocaine fueled their “culture of excitement and drive and more and more and more,” he says. It’s not Nutt’s first controversial statement, the Telegraph notes: He was fired from the government after saying ecstasy and horseback riding were about even, safety-wise; he’s also claimed that alcohol is more dangerous than heroin.
I wish I could say something clever, but this is beyond lunacy……thoughts?
He might have a point. Bubble economics did begin in the 80’s: the Age of Coke 🙂
I was thinkibg along those lines also….as well as the ME generation…..greed and lust for power
He has all the makings, to be hired by Fox News….
That escaped me Don….but you are so right or a gig at the Heritage Foundation, they seem to like made up crap….
Throw in ABC. They like to twist emails around so they can start up a scandal. Also, anything that Rupert Murdoch owns….
Don, just about any MSM outlet…they are all looking for that hook to get the viewers….
If that isn’t a probability it does describe what it looks like when bakers go wild as they did prior to the financial collapse of ’08.
Larry, the government has done nothing to prevent these twats from collapsing the economy again…..
