market

This market is beginning to scare me. There is a strange mood abroad, as if everyone knew this was coming and will now just work happily into their 80's with no other demands on the world. It's like that relaxed fatalism one sees in illness: a wry smile, a shrug. There is an element of disbelief in this I think but there is no anger, no outrage towards those who brought this on us through their unbridled greed and their dismissive social disinterest. In Germany, the money-changers' homes would be cinders by now. It is true that everyone is to some extent to blame but many people are just hard working, unassuming family and business people and their culpability is little. Maybe I'm just overestimating what is coming.
