To Do

My stack of books to read: Liaquat Ahamed's Lords of Finance, Dean Baker's False Profits, John Cassidy's How Markets Fail, Jonathan Cohn's Sick, Barbara Ehrenreich's Bright-Sided, Brad DeLong and Stephen Cohen's The End of Influence, Simon Johnson  and James Kwak's 13 Bankers, Alyssa Katz's Our Lot, Michael Lewis's The Big Short, David Plouffe's The Audacity to Win, Andrew Ross Sorkin's Too Big to Fail, Joseph Stiglitz's Freefall, David Wessel's In Fed We Trust.




In the "Your Decision" music video - embedding disabled by request - the invitation at the beginning reads "1023 Corinthians Drive." Corinthians 10:23 from the King James Bible reads:

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

And from the Bible in Basic English:

We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

A nice touch in the video is at 2:16 where a man is heading upstairs but is turned away from the VIP area and expresses frustration.
