"Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing." Credit has crunched, debt has turned toxic, the gears of the world economy have ground to a halt. It's now clear that the market doesn't only get it wrong about sub-prime mortgages; it gets it wrong about everything. We need to ask again one of the most fundamental questions a society ever addresses: why do things cost what they do?
OMG people in the audience are stupid! Stop bringing up the same question in different ways! Let the man talk! He flew in a plane GET OVER IT ALREADY! It happens over 5000 times a day! If he didn't fly over on the plane, it was still leaving with or without him!
