Let us not be defeated by the tyranny of the world financial markets that threaten peace and democracy everywhere.

The reality is that financial markets are self-destabilizing; occasionally they tend toward disequilibrium, not equilibrium.

The efficiency, credibility, and liquidity of the financial markets have been foundational to the largest economy in the world.

The middle and working classes are paying the debt that the financial markets created.

Our economy is increasingly dependent on the success and integrity of the financial markets.

Developments in financial markets can have broad economic effects felt by many outside the markets.
