Does the current Wall Street disaster really surprise anyone? The climate of greed in this country is astounding.
I think things started getting out of hand about 20 years ago with the emergence of the "day trader."
People used to earn a living by producing something--then, suddenly, making money became an occupation. I find this strange. "What do you do for a living?" "I make money."
Maybe I'm just an old hippie, but when the bumper stickers went from MAKE LOVE NOT WAR to WHOEVER DIES WITH THE MOST TOYS WINS, this nation really took a nose dive.
