A line in that article struck a chord within me.

“We are in the midst of a great experiment…”

That seems particularly apt. Our ‘experts’ don’t really know what they’re doing – they are simply doing something and seeing what happens. Isn’t it lovely when the wealth of a nation is one big lab for these people to test their theories on?

At least in a free market, whatever its drawbacks, I would not have the value of my savings played with, without my consent, by unaccountable men in position to wipe it out entirely.

Indeed.
