Excerpt (via Psy-Fi Blog)
One of the things you may have noticed as we’ve parlayed our way around the world of finance is how much of what goes on seems to be hidden beneath the surface.

In fact, at one level, that’s probably exactly what’s going on. Market participants are engaging in an escalating war of deception to persuade people to give them their money.

All of which is what you get when you replace the natural processes of social trust with actuarial projections.
