“Fifteen years ago, well before al-Qaeda’s first attacks on America, our tech stocks began to crumble. Over $5 trillion in equity value was wiped out. Our entire economy was temporarily paralyzed. And what’s worse, that crisis set off a tragic chain of economic events that also continue to ricochet through time … Radical interest-rate cuts … A great housing bubble — and BUST … The emergence of a deadly debt crisis … And now, the most risky and largest Fed money-printing operation of all time. This chain of events has wiped out vast amounts of invested wealth; the hard-earned savings of millions of everyday Americans.”
