=======================================================================
Optimism is the most serious cause for the global economic bubble.

There is an ocean of people who are now feeling so optimistic that not
only have they become expectant of the fact that they are deep in
clover, but they have told everybody else that they are also deep in
clover.

Optimism has an uncanny knack of being self-fulfilling.

No wonder almost every single quoted share in the world has gone up

thus allowing him to mishandle the economy for 10 years until the
brown stuff... alas not the Brown stuff hits...
