"...The market is a hard task master: It does not allow either self-indulgence or consideration for others. What others think of you matters, but the results - measured by and objective criterion, money - matters more. Having an objective criterion encourages objective performance. That is what makes financial markets so efficient: They turn people into profit-making machines. That has its merits, but a society dominated by financial markets could easily become inhuman. This is not a flight of fancy but a present danger." - George Soros | |
