The Almighty Buck

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the praise-mammon dept.

The NYT Magazine this week focuses on a topic near and dear to its heart: money. Stories about the dotcom boom, priorities, the cult of Wall Street. Some of the stories are interesting, as with this comparison of how far a dollar goes depending on where you live. Some are disturbing, like this one on CEO salaries. And several are (unintentionally) humorous, like this one about bankrupt Etoys and this one, by a rich writer who believes everyone else is rich too.

    Comparing the USA to Switzerland is retarded. We simply do not have the option of being neutral in international affair such as the Swiss are. A country of our size, power and influence just cannot abide such a policy. Has the pre World War II era taught you nothing?
