Back in the '00s, during the DOTCOM Bubble, the massive speculation caused by the internet related companies caused the Nasdaq Composite stock market index to rose 400%, only to fall 78% from its peak.
The interesting part is how the losses were managed by the goverment. This was the so called "sonic inflation", due to the relatively short period of time that it lasted, in addition to its "expansion" to less developed economies.
The whole proccess isn't well documented and overall sketchy. There isn't a single big book about it, but a series of small documents available on internet. Just google "Sonic Inflation"

There's noting really that confusing if you understand macroeconomics. The Asian financial crises in the late 1990s caused a flood of dumb money into America. The Clinton administration wanted to eliminate the national debt so without that outlet where was all those savings going to go? Into the hottest flimflam... all kinds of start up corporations got access to tons of money and were able to take on even further levels of liabilities they couldn't seriously manage.
Also when I google Sonic Inflation I only get a bunch of furry fetish art

It's interesting but the author is as concerned about imparting his hatred of jews as he is about providing actual information.
In the 3rd Chapter (I think) he outright claims that Jews probably had Napoleon assassinated.

Why are you like this? Nobody said greed wouldn't exist without jews. Jews are just, on average, overly materialistic and profit off of others' greed. They are behind most of not all forms of mammon worship in the modern world. Without jews it would probably have been some other group and I'd have called them out.

No more than literally any other social group on the planet. Have you ever seen how the average Saudi prince lives?

Lol as if Protestantism doesn’t have televangelists that bath in money, and the Catholic HQ isn’t literally a fucking palace, and I’m sure Putin also takes very good care of the Orthodox clergy. Get fucking real

No, not nearly all. And Saudis weren't like that before they were bought off by jews. Thanks for proving my point.

Yes, christianity is a jewish religion for non-jews. Thanks for proving my point.
>Yes, but never your own, which is the main problem
Sure I do, have you seen the state of the west currently? Westerners are individualistic, greedy motherfuckers. They haven't always been like that though, that's been steadily increasing on par with the amount of jewish influence. Thanks for proving my point.
