“The trouble begins when we start to be so impressed by the strategies of our systematized thought that we forget that it does relate to an obverse, that it is hewn from negation, that it is but very small security against the void of negation which surrounds it.” DoeForgetTroubleSecurityStrategyRelateSurroundVoidImpressedMethodologyNegation Author:Glenn Gould
“The reason Social Security is in big trouble is we don't have enough workers to support the retirees.

It is the purposeless fetishistic performance of ritual in accordance with the civic religion of liberalism.” SaidLyingReligiousIssuesTroubleSecuritySeriousPerformancesGladTerroristLiberalismAlsRitualSparesAirportsJuneGoreCivicsAirport Security Author:Ann Coulter
“The collateralized debt obligation, the CDO, is a structure which allows you to more or less continuously choose how much risk you want to take in a whole batch of securities.
