scenes from ....the great depression ...piffle !!!!!
i say
fuck the great depression
today's cautionary tales are told by idiots....

example:

"Once a bank in a given town shut its doors, all the knowledge accumulated by the bank officers there effectively disappeared. Other banks weren’t nearly as willing to lend money to local businesses and residents because the loan officers at those banks didn’t know which borrowers were less reliable than they looked. Credit dried up."
and just who's this particular idiot ???..

some virtual cat burglar from the business pages o f
the new york times behold his electrified hair act as he
like his other "fellow worriers--- "....connect(s) the dots....
... to teach a little lesson on the economics of a credit crisis — how A can lead to B, B to C and C to Depression"

ahh comrades he's but one idiot in a chorus of idiots..eh ???
a chorus of idiots headed up by a string of distinguished lead soloists soloists that include double domed faux nobel laureates and emminent tycoons and tower sharks
...well its all the purest brand of hooey they're peddling

these days we're getting fed nothin but a steady diet of bull goose feathers
--- policy as the illusion of the impossible----
where we need a huey long manic boast...a king fisher a dealer in miracle loaves we get what we gt who ???
why none other then gentle ben bernanke ---clio plays her games---
our livid faced soul sapped fed chair from old nassau himself

--- side bar :
clio plays her games with us as usual
seems ben is in fact
a former scholar of the great depression

"As a young academic economist in the 1980s, Mr. Bernanke largely developed the theory that the loan officers’ lost knowledge was a crucial cause of the Depression. He referred to this lost knowledge as “informational capital.” In plain English, it means that trust vanished from the banking sector." -------

listen fellow saps and suckers .... the fed could loan it all .... period
and directly to the guys and gals that make the real wheels turn
not the hi fi mugglers and at zero "real cost "..trust me.... its my science

if you want to think it thru some
try starting with this notion :
activating idle resources has zero opportunity cost get that... not tough eh ???

if the gub runs a big enough deficit spends enough money extends enough
easy business credit .....hell basically credit costs nothing to produce and credit is the elixir when it flows even wildly indiscriminately flows
into our maze like thicket of real tangible product businesses our outfits that hire folks and put em to work
producing actual consumable shit ...(ya for a profit ...ya thru exploitation
...ain't it nothin but a cold existential fact
that a job any job is better then no job at all ???
all a big waste ??? wasting what ????
a bridge to anywhere build ultimately out of other wise idle resources no matter where its going no matter how marginal its additional social value ....damn it it's better then ten thousand pairs of thumbs twittling away on lazeee boys

go to " the source "and fill all those greedy little hands
out there ready to rumble the market place fill em with cash
let america's eager grasping legion of petty for profit outfits
seek their petty fortunes out in the forum
battling for orders against each others grain
let em sell more I phones
let em build more sun decks and cut more blue hair
let em rip and swindle and and serve more restaurant meals

let em only in it for the money
half assedly care for more elders and raw kids

let the markets roar let a zillion firms contend

let's try some of this guys snake oil for once
