In this election, I have heard many claims, but the oddest is that of the Liberals that the economic crisis of 2009 was unforeseen and was “not on the radar.”
First, all of the commentators I follow were saying things like “this is madness,” and “this will end in tears,” and I will happily supply a partial list of them to anyone who requests it.
Secondly, any time we see people singing “We’re in the money,” and “We’ll be rich,” we know that the crash is coming, just as the night follows the day. Busts follow bubbles. Crashes follow irrational exuberance.
That is the reality of our world.
If reality isn’t on the Liberal radar, what is?
