It will burst but they won't get fucked. They'll either get bailed out or reorganize their debt into another corporation and ride off with all the riches.
A classic heads they win, tails you lose scenario.
Primitive the profits, socialize the losses.
Ah you say that, but I lived through the internet bubble. Jeez it was gruesome and then 9/11 hit the next year. Savage times.
Unless it's considered a national security issue, which it might be, they're getting fucked without the lube.
So did I. The people at the top will not get fucked. They'll steal everything they can. Everyone else will get fucked.
We can hope this time they die.
Oh yeah. Sure they're already minted. Set for life.
