The spirit of Bernie Madoff prevails in the global stock market

Stock market panic
This stock market irrationality is all just " a confidence game " ? Perhaps the world socialist web site had a better description : " a Ponzi scheme " . The spirit of Bernie Madoff prevails among the world's wealthy elite. They don't even want to intelligently exploit " labor " anymore. They mimic the old Robber Barons. They want to swindle and plunder, not " create jobs ". Does any economist ever win a Nobel Prize for repudiating the ethics of global capitalism ? How about a Nobel Prize in Economics for Pope Francis and the social philosophy of the Catholic Church ?
But old Karl Marx got it right ? For China and Russia- a back to the ABCs of communism movement ?
