My thoughts exactly. In the excitement of being caught gatecrashing a pretty exclusive party, I get the feeling the author rushed to write what must have felt like an exclusive, bring-the-system-down exposé. Instead, we got a mildly diverting piece that confirms our suspicions about how the rich and powerful behave behind closed doors, and the author blew a career-making opportunity for inside access. It's a shame, because there's definitely a story to be told about these people involving the 2008 crisis and the enormous drain on the public purse that the bailout caused. That story is surely more juicy than 'the rich think the rest of us are suckers for rescuing them.' |
