Does Greenspan have any idea how soulless was the world he created and sustained; how intellectually and morally vapid the whole thing was? All that he achieved was an entirely new low in human folly. Kings and princes have always had their mistresses, and they probably deserved the comfort in the world of the arranged marriage. Rarely did they trade their kingdoms for them. We, however, have the spectacle of the effort to stage a rally in the high end girlfriend index, confusing the normal commerce between men and women, which gratify and delight the appetites, the eye and even at times the soul with productive enterprise that puts food on the table, roofs overhead and pays the doctors bills. As we see our masters of the universe don't even have the discipline to zip up their pants and go home when they can't afford the next round.
“let them eat cake” never ends well.
