Like a broken clock, Greenspan was right.
Greenspan is the only man in history who can talk about his total failures in this ethereal third person, as if what actually happened never really happened, and could only happen on a theoretical basis that only he can understand, if and only if the odd conditions he saw and did nothing about came to pass.
Meanwhile, the whole world sees with perfect clarity that what Gspan said came true, exactly how he said it would, yet having utterly failed at even making the slightest attempt to control the out of control bubble blowing machine, now and always regards him as some kind of financial superhero.
It is singularly odd.
