Financial crisis: Are we safer now?

tags ,
The FT has always been a mouthpiece of the establishment/elites who term anything against their vision as populism. I don't completely agree with the FT slant, but they do sometimes make interesting insights.

They are truly deluded, if they think the Financial Crisis occurred in 2008. By then, the endgames were well in play.

FT Series: Financial crisis: Are we safer now? [1]
A decade after the crash that reshaped financial markets, economies and politics around the world, the FT examines whether the financial system is more resilient than it was in 2008 — and where the risks lie today.

I picked some articles listed below. Frankly, some of the other articles are a sham. Like that one by a Lehman insider, on why they should have been saved, is absolute drivel. Should the government bailout gamblers when they make a loss? What a pity that some of those criminals could not continue to party!

Legacy of the Global Financial Crisis

Lessons of the Financial Crisis

So little has changed since the Financial Crash

Banks are safer but debt is a danger

Next Crisis more difficult to tackle

Bankers who went to Jail

I don't agree with all they say, but some of their articles make me think there maybe hope yet for the global economy.

There are still unanswered questions about why governments chose to bailout some gamblers and not others. You might probably deduce why, but they may never truthfully answer.

Selling your soul to the devil is a one-way process. They can sell their soul to the devil, but can they buy it back?
