What that graph doesn't show is the potential for traders to fuck things up horribly. The subprime mortgage debacle didn't surge out of thin air. But I'm sure the mouthbreather deregulators won't let that get in the way of good business.

Wait, you're telling me Enron's business model wasn't something we should base our entire economy off of?

Realistically that infographic is fucked, that timeline restriction and "from scratch" definition is doing a lot of work and this is purposefully ignoring stuff like tech companies operating out of Ireland for tax breaks. Actual propaganda tier nonsense...


...on the other hand, FUCK THE EUROPOORS, HOW'S IT FEEL TO HAVE ANOTHER COUNTRY COMPLETELY BANKROLL YOUR NATIONAL DEFENSE YOU COMMIE FUCKS

I always wondered how a shitter country like ireland famous for their amazing industries of potato farming and sheep herding had ever become one of the fastest growing economies in europe. Then I realized it's just another legal loophole shithole like bermuda/Turks & caicos and it all made sense.
