In 2007-2008, the sins of the bankers were visited on the politicians; now the reverse is true. Perhaps there is a difference: the bankers’ sins were sins of commission, while the politicians’ sins – repeated failed efforts to produce a solution to match the scale of the problem – are sins of omission.
2007—2008年，政客替银行家担了骂名；现在的情况正好相反。也许有一点不同：银行家的罪名是做得太过火，而政客的罪名是做得不到位——总是不能给出与问题规模相匹配的解决方案。但后果一样严重。
