800 Years of Financial Folly

"Eight years..." appears to derive its conclusion from purely meta-level analysis, in the sense that it avoids mentioning physical economy issues at all, instead focusing on dynamics of capital flows, debts and notions like "period of euphoria". So typical for "market's invisible hand" people. And yet, somehow I find it easy to sympathise with the ex-Bear Stearns VP's conclusion.
