Hooray for the Market Meltdown

from the sense-of-reality dept

Interested observer wrote in with an interesting article from the Globe and Mail. I think it takes what a lot of us have been thinking all along and puts it into words. The market “meltdown” was probably a good thing. People can be more honest and serious about the work they’re doing. The internet isn’t going away, but perhaps some of the “get a quick buck” folks will finally leave it alone. I still think the scam artists will find the internet a useful tool, but perhaps it’ll be a bit tougher for them.
