They will be the first ones to go broke when the market starts(or
accelerates) behaving like they do.... unpredictably...

Well, IMO, it would be a much improved situation if the "market" and the
"economy" were seperated, and redesigned.
I'm not one to offer the solution as to how that would occur, but it seems
evident that the "economy" has some "fatal flaw" and the "market" is no
better. Don't ask me how to fix it, I refuse to deal in the "market" and
simply prepare myself for finding other work if the company I work for
continues to lose value on the "market"... I think it's rather
entertaining. Lots of people with tons of money in the "market" feeling
like they will retire and have no worries for the rest of their lives.....
It almost makes me laugh aloud...
