Wall Street As Soi Cowboy
a: Wall street ~
b: Soi Cowboy
What: "It's easy to understand why the world economy is collapsing, if you think of Wall Street as Soi Cowboy: bar girls are the banks; their customers/boyfriends are their investors/shareholders; a Cabinet minister swindles them using credit default insurance scams; the generals are the regulators; the Treasury Secretary is a former bar girl." Soi Cowboy is a red-light district in Bangkok, Thailand. The comparison is appropriate.
