If we disregarded everyone who was ever wrong about anything, we wouldn't have a lot of sources left.

In this case, I tend to discount the blood-in-the-streets aspect of Kunstler's rhetoric, but I take him very seriously when he talks about "the stupendous wall of illusion that separates money matters from reality."
