NOAM CHOMSKY - ON STUPID PEOPLE ! (02:37sek) https://youtube/watch?v=Gm0YMZE_1QQ&feature=youtu.be Sounds, Words, Lines, Movements & Visions to Inteligently, Insightfully, Sensitively & Effortlessly, Uplift & Beautify My Autumn - 112 § If you want to look at stupid people, you find them all over the place. For example, we happen to be in the middle of a huge financial crisis. If you trace that back, a lot of it comes from a fanatic religious belief in whats called the “efficient market hypothesis”. Pure fanaticism dominated the economics profession, dominated the Federal Reserve. The one consequence was that when an $8 trillion housing bubble developed, totally unrelated to any fundamentals, completely off the 100-year history of housing prices, the profession and the Fed, the central bank, said its not necessary to pay attention, because there are efficient markets. I mean, is that very different from “God promised Noah”? -- Noam Chomsky
