mircea_popescu: "remember that it’s the individualists who seem to work together best towards the collective — the BIG collective — society as a whole — a nation, for instance. meanwhile, the “collectivists” (as hofstede calls them) — or the clannish groups (as i call them) — don’t manage to handle, or even to create, commonweals hardly at all."

herbijudlestoids: i have heard a number that the richest 100% own a lot, but the number i heard was like 8%

decimation: I guess I'm pushing it into the black boxed labeld "competent bank", and you are saying such a bank would have to charge enormous fees to employ the right people
decimation: But I guess the work has to exist somewhere
herbijudlestoids: well what would i need the bank for, if i can for example loan 10 day money in a liquid market to some business directly, and then when i need some money sell the appropriate amout of 10 day loans back into the mkt?
decimation: I'm not sure the crisis would be of the same magnitude as what fiat banks have gotten into
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids i just mean that if you want to dd on your own you can't possibly need a bank for any purpose.
mircea_popescu: how do you think i'll be able to coerce herbi here to do all that legwork for your blind "classes"
