IN PRAISE OF IDIOCY (December 6, 2011)
Stockmarkets were up for a week on the expectation that the eurozone governments could not but do something about the single currency’s mortal throws. Idiocy. And then stockmarkets came down on account of Standard & Poor’s threat of downgrading the credit rating of most eurozone’s countries. Idiocy again. What are we to expect from the stockmarkets in the coming days, weeks, months? Nothing but idiocy. And why am I bothering to jot all of this down? In praise of idiocy, of course! As stockmarkets show beyond any doubt, it is the very foundation of human existence.
