On Monday, September 15, Wall Street awoke to the disappearance of two of its giants: Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch, and some have compared the crisis to the Great Depression of the 1930s. Others referred to ‘meltdown Monday’. Riz speaks with two financial analysts Lakshman Achuthan and Max Keiser about the fears that Wall Street’s woes will spread around the world.

    Max Keiser is a well-educated moron. He can talk his way around theoretical market rhetoric like a pro, but he is lost in regards to history (For instance, on privatization, Freddie and Fanny were both created by the federal government in the first place) and in regards to any knowledge of how the world economy actually works.

    Oooooh, buuuuurn!

    Oh, wait. I checked out his videos after watching his antics and theatrics here. He knows enough to create a cute video game and blather on about defunct concepts like the gold standard, something espoused by a group of people I’d equate with those that still believe the world is flat, but that’s all he knows. I’ve met fifth graders with a better grasp of economics and history than his. He’s a showman who knows big words, nothing more.

    Sure, very true, because voting down a post that speaks facts rather than offering any form of counterpoint makes me place almost as much importance on the opinions of those people as I do in that of your friend the carnival barker.
    Are you ten, or just another one of those people so in love with having an opinion on everything that you don’t feel the need to have any substance to those opinions?
