Here's a banker who's talk is particularly engaging, and leaves you not wishing a pitchfork to be stuck up his date. Pity his actions in no way match the rhetoric.
The essence of what he says is little different to what I think, that market ideology is bunk and that you need to maximise the benefits and minimise the harm of everything, including markets. He claims markets are the source of our wealth and much of the enrichment of human life but also are a source of evil that needs to be controled, yes a banker used the word 'evil' in relation to markets.
He claims that the incentive of profit needs to be long term, socially and sustainably focused. That the ethos of - if you make a buck and its all done by contract and is legal then there is nothing to be worried about - needs to change.
He sounds good but I can't help but think he was doing a whole lot dancing just like Chuck Prince, making hay while sun shone.
