Why would you expect people to respond with seriousness and genuine arguments to such uninformed nonsense? It's clear to me that you are either a troll or a moron.
If you're incapable of having a civilized argument why don't you just shut up altogether? Since you haven't got anything else to say it seems that it's you who's doing the trolling here. "Ooh, I'm so smart that I don't even have to reply!"
Pathetic.

I'm not saying that the Finnish are fucking morons, but the only examples we have are this guy and Mazda (Who only claims to be a Finn but is obviously a Swede).

I thought of Mikko when I read this quote from Greenspan.
I made a mistake in presuming that the self-interest of organizations, specifically banks and others, was such as they were best capable of protecting their own shareholders.

The thing about this that makes me laugh the most is the
trading freezes they wish to implement throughout a typical trading day.
It's to stop panic-selling and - in my eyes - is equivalent to an immature child taking a "time out" after throwing a hissy-fit.
Fearing more carnage in world equity markets, big hedge funds and other institutional investors have been pulling out their money en masse in a bid to reduce risk and raise cash — a process known as deleveraging that only intensifies the selling....
...The big drop in futures trading raised the possibility that circuit breakers intended to prevent panic selling could be triggered during regular trading — something that hasn't happened since 1997.
If the Dow Jones industrial average falls 10 per cent before 2 p.m. ET, the market will shut down for an hour. If the threshold is breached between 2 p.m. and 2:30 p.m., the halt will last 30 minutes. Trading would stop again if the Dow falls by 20 per cent. If trading falls by 30 per cent at any time, trading would be halted for the day.
Talk about trying to wrangle a bunch of unruly kids.
