"*What is fragile should break early while it is still small*. Nothing
should ever become too big to fail. Evolution in economic life helps those
with the maximum amount of hidden risks – and hence the most fragile –
become the biggest.

2. *No socialisation of losses and privatisation of gains*. Whatever may
need to be bailed out should be nationalised; whatever does not need a
bail-out should be free, small and risk-bearing. We have managed to combine
the worst of capitalism and socialism. In France in the 1980s, the
socialists took over the banks. In the US in the 2000s, the banks took over
the government. This is surreal.

3. *People who were driving a school bus blindfolded (and crashed it) should
never be given a new bus*. The economics establishment (universities,
regulators, central bankers, government officials, various organisations
staffed with economists) lost its legitimacy with the failure of the system.
It is irresponsible and foolish to put our trust in the ability of such
experts to get us out of this mess. Instead, find the smart people whose
hands are clean."
