What you've argued is faulty logic was actually sarcasm. One major clue is that the previous paragraph also contained heavy sarcasm.


Uh yeah, you're right. I'm surprised that didn't jump off the page at me but hey, I read the comments first and then the article too, failing "like a good banker", meaning succeeding in not spotting the bullshit but not any worse than my fellow hn-ers who also upvoted it.

I amazed your at bottom of the comments. But then again I was silly enough to upvote the parent before I read the full text.

"A sound banker, alas, is not one who foresees danger and avoids it, but one who, when he is ruined, is ruined in a conventional and orthodox way with his fellows, so that no-one can really blame him" - JM Keynes
