New rule: governments shouldn't ask for advice about what to do in a banking crisis from a company who owns a ton of bonds in those banks. The conflict of interest and lack of accountability is astounding.

When you go bust the public blames you as they suffer through austerity. I also loved this quote from the story: And then they saw him and said, Who the fuck was that??? Is that the fucking guy who is in charge of the money??? That’s when everyone panicked.
