So, now some very concerned people march their way into the Wall Street and openly declare: PEOPLE! THE SITUATION IS NOT THAT GREAT! Are they right? Of course, they are! Thanks for raising the concern as they probably were under impression everyone else was apparently in oblivion the market economy is sent to the Earth from the Heaven. B-U-T!! What do they propose? Social revolution? More control on the banks [and create more corrupted officials and more politics around that]?

Yep, there is a flexibility of distributing resources. And this flexibility worth some efforts. B-U-T!! Isn't the price too high? There are not only investments to real producing economy but investments to investments (so called derivatives) and even more indirect investments. And the real economy feels like Cinderella among these derivatives because overall there are much more money than real economy costs. It is like flipped-over pyramid. And you really expect stability and longevity from such a construction? This is not market economy. This is Matrix economy, Neo.

What they propose? What does your body propose, when you feel a pain? Social revolution? I think it propose to use brain and find a way to improve the situation. NOW!!!

It might be, Morpheus. And the reason seems to me that the real products do not worth that much these days. As you know, the market economy causes more goods and services to be created at the cheaper prices. So, one of the very real consequences is the overproduction of the goods and services. One of the ways around that threat is the innovation. New products create new markets and make the old markets (goods and services) obsolete. So, at some point, the chance had also become measurable in money thus becoming a very real service. That has created ForEx and other thin-air matter which some people might perceive as the Matrix.
