> Normal people losing all their life savings and a lot of them are contemplating suicide. 1) It's the internet (a subreddit no less!) - who really knows who lost what, and who is contemplating suicide. 2) If we take it at face value -- that people have lost their life savings and are contemplating suicide -- the real issue isn't a change in material circumstances, it's shame. Ashamed of their own stupidity and greed, they find it hard to imagine living with the knowledge that in their heart of hearts they knew better. 3) That is why the endgame will be the creation of a villian. Making people whole or at least providing some relief isn't the important part. The important part is helping people convince themselves it wasn't their fault. They were victims. The government, the banks, CNBC are the bad guys.
