    Shouldn’t, definitely. But for a while, it will keep running, because that’s how a lot of speculative investment works.

      I agree, and the problem is finance capitalism itself. But then it becomes an ideological argument.

        The argument could be made economically rather than ideologically.

        Capitalism has a failure mode where too much capital gets concentrated into too few hands, depressing the flow of money moving through the economy.
