Reader comment on: New Yorker on Ray Dalio

Submitted by James Eric Fuller (United States), Jul 26, 2011 01:47

While the New Yorker admittedly omits the origin of borrowed money used by hedge funds to run their ponzi schemes, editor ought to mention that lack of oversight, regulation, lobbying, and an absent code of judicial ethics in the Supreme Court, have also contributed to the growth of financial tumors such as Bridgewater Associates, whose rise seems incidentally to correlate closely to the ascendancy of Reaganomics and our tax-free gift-giving economy. Is greed ultimately really 'good'? We will no doubt see the thrilling climax of disaster capitalism in the coming weeks.
