The Peter Pan Society: Never Grows Up

"Nobody told me..."

"That Wall Street can't be trusted"
"Nothing changed since 2008"
"The stock market is a rigged casino"
"HFT flash crashes every single day"
"My broker gets kickbacks for HFT frontrunning my account"
"Printing money to buy stocks is a bad idea"
"We can't borrow our way out of a debt crisis"
"We shouldn't have outsourced the economy to China"
"Game show hosts are not real leaders"
"Faux News is not real news and the truth is not 'liberal'"
"The same people who caused the last crisis should not still be in charge"
"Debt is 'bad'"
"I shouldn't trust my investment advisor - the one who lost my money the last time"
"I shouldn't have my head installed in my own ass"

"Nobody told me!"
