Stocks are their own entire economy for the rich people at this point. Just don't give gamblers bailouts they don't need and we will be fine.

    Better hope you have zero money sent through or stored in a bank or pension fund and you don't have a mortgage yourself or your landlord doesn't have a mortgage or your employer doesn't have a mortgage or business loan and doesn't use a bank.

    The correct response is what Iceland did: government bails out the bank's customers, takes ownership, and actually jails the c-level wankers bankers.

    Because like it or not, you're still part of the financial system unless you're currently sat in a self-sufficient earth-ship borrowing some else's WiFi connection.
