[ExI] Belief in Market Efficiency

[Dagon Gmail]

It was a pseudo-democratic oligarchy in deep constitutional crisis, overrun
by Italian immigrants with a strong authoritarian, catholic and semi-feudal
culture. A historical period where the US almost slipped into
brasilification.
We are in a comparable era in many places of the world, and if Italy were
to be admitted to the EU today it would be next in line behind Kazachstan
or Turkey.
