Wall Street Blues

Basing an economy on the fears and expectations of stockholders strikes me a little like basing a justice system on the whims of a mob. There must be a better way. Of course, the old Soviet Union tried something very different and made a total mess of it. There appear to be no easy ways to structure an economy. But by the gods, does it have to be this irrational and crazy?

I wonder if my friend in Bali has room for two people and a small dog to crash.
