Turning Swedish

Matthew Richardson and Nouriel Roubini make a detailed case for a Swedish approach to the financial system crisis, including the suggestion that instead of “nationalizing” banks we call it “receivership.” I say we go further and call it “awesome capitalist cowboys” just to ensure that everything’s really in tune with American cultural norms. Everyone loves cowboys!
