What is most surprising - and disturbing - the current economic crisis (apart from the fact that a few rich people have played all the wealth of all people in the world for decades to come) is that in criticize the greed and avarice capitalists are not communists, socialists, or idealists, but the capitalists themselves mystics.
The capitalist "theorists" (economists), which today are the harshest critics of the political and economic management of financial systems and that is why the capitalists also practical, the herd of idiots (especially Americans) who believed that burn capital for easy profits based on the debt (in what is, in fact, was a gigantic pyramid scheme at the expense of ordinary people , as the U.S. dollar has always suggested) was a winning strategy and infallible, even in the long period, is now compelled to listen.
Nouriel Roubini and Loretta Napoleoni are everywhere lately: in Newsweek, ABC, CNBC, CNN, etc.. Bluntly criticized the American economic policy (and, by extension, Western) and identify solutions to their own admission (less than Roubini Napoleoni) are utopian. The solution proposed by Roubini is so drastic (for Americans) as unfeasible: nationalize the banks. Calmly he told an audience increasingly desperate that the only way to save is to hope that the banks allow themselves to be bought by the state, the state humbly and honestly to clean up (though at the expense of taxpayers) and then just as honestly resale to new owners. The funny thing is that he gives him a way out of crisis, knowing that this could never happen, and implying therefore that there is no way out .
Loretta Napoleoni goes further, explaining that the only way to restore a healthy economy is to ensure that the world economic and financial regulations to take honest, serious and morally legitimate. There can be no healthy economy in a global market that allows the slave trade, slavery and child sex trafficking, genocide and the bloody wars for resources. As a global market that can tolerate these injustices think to regulate in a fair and honest financial sector? Of course, if the rules happen only in America this would be penalized in competition with other global markets. All this is just and sacred. But how can Loretta Napoleoni suggests that global governments can suddenly act of love and harmony and to put a stop to all the injustices of the world? Can not and certainly does not. It merely explains the solution involving hypothetical, too, that there is no real solution.
There is no solution because, if the pseudo-Russian was convicted of corruption in little more than 70 years after its inception, American capitalism is doomed the rampant corruption at the same time, its revival (after the crisis of 1929). Just as in a perfect world communism would work the same is true for capitalism. But the world is not perfect and money, as well as power, relentlessly worn . Those who understand the economy knew that capitalism is doomed to collapse, for a thousand mathematical theory but also for a very simple concept: If the quick profit (instant gratification) is the reason for everything that moves, there is no reason to do things for good, honest and morally right in future perspective. There is no reason to lay the foundations for the future because the future is not to be instant gratification . Then you eat the foundations of society, the wealth created by decades of work of the masses, to split and burn everything in a few years.
Like the economy, so the planet.
