Why Wall Street keeps betting on junk debt that’s destined to fail
How rating agencies rubber-stamp nonsense—and get paid to do it
Why bailouts are baked into the system, no matter how reckless the play
What this collapse signals for the broader economy
You can’t make this up. The question is—how many more of these “surprises” will there be?
