You know, if I was a cynic I would say that these “once in a lifetime” crashes might even be designed to wring even more money out of the working classes.
If you look, historically there was a big crash every ten years or so prior to the great depression.

Something something history doomed something…
Hmmmm… Now what was it that happened in the 80’s that sparked all the de-regulation that caused the recessions? If I could just put my finger on it…
