Society is pandering to the sociopaths.
And -- here's a real compuer revolution for you! -- spreadsheet programs greased the slide!

Viz, the proliferation of bizz talk
channels on TV and radio, the incessant inverviewing of CEOs, as though they
have something to say.
Even Soros who made a ton of money is back on the talk circuit saying very little. But interviewers are nodding wisely.

Indeed, it would be much more _economic_ to build a nice big casino for the Enron-Carlyle-M$-WTO-Wallstreet-FinTimes sociopaths and let them play all day with virtual chips (blue chips..), just so they leave the rest of the world alone i.e. unharmed. But that wouldn't be "fun" for them! They feel the urge to squeeze real blood from real persons... How bad must things get before a sufficient number of people will stand up to the sociopaths?
