4. This is about as big as it gets.
The only thing propping up Wall Street and the financial markets in general is the belief by the general public that they are credible and objective.

I do believe that the eyes of the public will be opened as to how much a house of cards the whole system is. As a layperson I STILL will never understand how a system that allowed credit default swaps to put into play more money than exists in the world is deemed credible in the first place.
