PERSPECTIVES : Rigging of Financial Markets (29 pages Free Download)

Modern economies do not actually leave matters to free markets as suggested by economists and CEOs in business circles. Economic theorists and CEOs from the Anglo Saxon fraternities have been advocating free market ideals merely to make sure that governments and Federal regulators are kept out. In reality however, the industrially advanced economies are being artificially rigged by financial syndicates, and with good reason. The rigging is being done scientifically with the intention of making financial markets safer for investors. This is an example of the mathematical sciences being utilized to help deliver positive outcomes for investors. However, even scientifically rigged markets might have to go through occasional hiccups. While economic divides within America had presented a mildly troubling picture by about 2015, neoliberal economists had almost always insisted that the American economy was booming. This is partly and technically true in many respects because the rigged component of the American economy has usually been booming at all times. To be a little more precise, the economy was always booming for the shareholder-investor engaging in speculative activities in the financial markets of Wall Street. Meanwhile, the foremost objective of the Industrial Revolution was to help transfer political power to financial syndicates and business corporations. Therefore, by the end of the current century, nations and their political systems would need to learn to function under the control of global financial syndicates.
