Financiers can’t tolerate losses flowing from their own greed and reckless gambling. Their solution is to have the state guarantee their stratospheric profits, bonuses and salaries. Governments can only do so through extracting money from their citizenry and facilitating the upward flow of wealth within corporate structures. Austerity is just another word for punishment. The corporate mass media serves us a daily diet of central bankers, government ministers, financiers and industrialists lecturing us that we must swallow bitter medicine as repentance for living beyond our means.

finance Defending the Indefensible by Stephen Lendman Robert Shiller is Yale University Professor of Economics and Professor of Finance and Fellow at the International Center of Finance, Yale School of Management.

His analysis included structural, cultural, and psychological factors. His 2005 second edition was right again. He explained the housing bubble and likely aftermath.

There are details, and then there is the big picture. Mistaking the former for the latter can send an activist down the wrong path. A good example of this are the often well-meaning people who resolutely demand that we "End the Fed." But the problem isn't the Federal Reserve, it is the system that it serves. If you don't like the Fed, what you actually don't like is the capitalist system.
