This is just so funny
some contributors seem vexed by images and mirrors. Can I help by referring people to Karl Marx and 'Money, the Universal Whore' as so many seem to see the end of money being imminent. Remember, when you look in the mirror that money 'can transform all my incapacities into their opposite'.
The extract I will record is :-
'Money therefore appears as an inverting power in relation to the individual and to those social and other bonds which claim to be essences in themselves. It transforms loyalty into treason, love into hate, hate into love, virtue into vice, vice into virtue, servant into master, master into servant, nonsense into reason and reason into nonsense'.
Tomorrow we will find out the truth of his theory, I can't wait to see the faces on board members as the government appointed board members walk through the door for the first time. I wonder will the board have any loyalty to those who fall on their swords, or will they be allowed to do the decent thing. I hope that the cameras are allowed to record these events, what a picture it will make.
For as Marx continued 'it is the power which brings together impossibilities and forces contradictions to embrace'.
Tomorrow will be just so funny. We are just so ruined. I must get back to my book on Financial Risk Management by Brian A. Eales, just to upset some of your readers, yes I can actually calculate the Macauley Duration of a Bond. Maybe if some bankers had tried to learn their trade they might not be in the situation they are now!
Well folks, I end with my favourite quote of the moment when referring to the property of money 'it is the universal whore, the universal pimp of men and peoples'. So, with the effective nationalisation of some of the banks, I hope that you understand that we are all now pimps and whores, has the church got anything to contribute to the debate.
