Yra Harris just posted a blistering critique of the crony capitalist crooks congregating in Davos. The first few paragraphs of his post,\u00a0For the Sake of Capitalism, Pepper Spray\u00a0Davos<\/a>, are a must read.<\/p>\n

Enjoy.<\/p>\n

Please,\u00a0PEPPER SPRAY ALL THE ATTENDEES OF DAVOS<\/strong>\u00a0in\u00a0order\u00a0to halt the rape of taxpayers and consumers across the globe. This annual conclave is responsible for more wealth destruction and the widening disparity in\u00a0GINI<\/strong>\u00a0coefficients than any public policy. I believe that the cost of attending Davos is priced at such an extravagant rate because it is a giant insider scam. Hobnob with politicians and policy makers in an effort to be part of the \u201csmart money\u201d crowd. It was the great moral philosopher and economist Adam Smith who so presciently noted: \u201cPeople of the same trade seldom meet together, even for the merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.\u201d The conspiracy against the public has been the financial repression of the global middle class in an effort to bail out those who are attached themselves to the public treasury to maintain the \u201canimal spirits\u201d of crony capitalism.<\/em><\/p>\n

The cost of an entrance pass to this private\/public \u00a0congress of mover and shakers should sound an alarm to all those who desire transparency in financial markets. In contemporizing the words of Adam Smith, Samuel Huntington was credited\u00a0in the online research cite, Acton Commentary, as creating\u00a0the phrase\u00a0DAVOS MAN<\/strong>:\u00a0\u201cA\u00a0soulless man, technocratic, nationless and cultureless, severed from reality. The modern economics that undergirded Davos capitalism is equally soulless, a managerial capitalism that reduces economics to mathematics and separates it from human action and human creativity.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
