Here are my thoughts.
To me money is just a believe system, not all that much different from religion.
Is it worth anything? No, it's not. It's no longer backed by gold or silver in a vault somewhere. Probably not that much gold or silver in the world.
What is Wall Street? Same thing. Has the world really changed? No, peoples perception of the world changed and they reacted to that. Just think about it. Fortunes are won and lost on a bunch of traders screaming on the trading floor.
Think of this. Company "X" stock takes a dive. Why? Some analysist predicted that they would earn $1.47 a share, and they only earned $1.25. They made a profit, but not to some assholes expectations. Is that the way to run a railroad? In my opinion no. But then what do I know. I'm only a simien with some typing skills.

Face it, when it come to money, where all whore's. just some think their stuff is worth more than others.
