Anxiety Culture: Stupid, Pointless Jobs

Anxiety Culture: Stupid, Pointless Jobs: "Financial Services is pretty much all based on what used to be called usury - the practice of making money from money. No creation of anything useful or worthwhile is involved. No real wealth is being created (to use Buckminster Fuller’s definition of real wealth as whatever “nurtures and accommodates human life”)."

BG: I referenced this site at the top of this blog, not realising how quite unhinged the writing seems to be in some areas. The idea that financial services do not at times "nurture and accommodate human life" is just hooey.
