I think _now_ is the time to believe in free markets.

Let 'em crash and burn so a new elite can rise.

Happy 83rd Birthday (11/20/25) to the greatest President we never had.
Ain't been the same without you Bobby.

The Great Depression was not so bad for the ultra-rich, if you remember that it was a credit crisis like today. If you had lots of cash you could take advantage and snap up businesses and property at a fraction of their real value.

When you have people in charge like Hank Paulson, who has a personal worth around $800,000,000 is he going to be worried about the difficulty of taking out a loan? I don't think so. He and a few friends could practically bail out Wall Street themselves if they wanted to.
