Not,in my view a satisfactory means of teaching, especially when we have the real 'deal'. It is never a good idea to obliterate the past. We have seen too many times 'in the past' to try and resurrect what we have lost, and ultimately results in a 'if only'.

Bankers are simply a service industry that relies on people with real jobs to do real work, and generate real wealth for the country.

Until society wakes up and realizes just what bankers actually do and how ‘intelligent’ and ‘intellectual’ they really are we will simply get back on the guinea pig wheel back to more of the same.
