"The financial sector functions as the sharp canines that the predator state uses to rend the nation. In addition to siphoning off capital for its own benefit, the finance sector misallocates the remaining capital in ways that harm the real economy in order to reward already-rich financial elites harming the nation." White-collar criminologist and former senior financial regulator William K. Black 2009
Financialization = A greater share of the wealth going to financial institutions (banks, insurance companies, hedge funds, etc.) and financial elites. Often precedes a crash.
"Of the roughly 750 currencies that have existed since 1700, only about 20 percent remain, and all of them have been devalued". - Ray Dalio
