Have to admit that it was interesting as I read it (most of it), but unfortunately, it‘s already fading. I won‘t remember it. The conclusion (most fresh in my mind) does refer to the 2008 financial crisis quite a bit, and hopes that people will have learned a few things. I do wonder what the author would write now, after things have shut down due to COVID, and are just now starting to reopen for the economy.
