Wow..what happened to Greenspan over the years? Sounds like he had his head on his shoulders back then...now he seems like just another tool of the very statists he railed against in 1987. ???

My own reply to that post was very similar. I read some number of years ago that his single-minded efforts in helping to absolutely wreck the economy of the United States were in fact a breathtakingly bold and brilliant long-term plan to get us back onto the gold standard, but I dismissed it as satire.

Greenspan said a lot of things, in his earlier life, that he eventually turned his back on. He realized that to line his own nest he would have to stop fighting the bandits and start facilitating.
