As Dabvadhaj chained the last up, Malthus stepped up to the crowd of weeping, miserable creatures, 'You have been chosen. You are the best in all the required fields. Do not cry, do not be scared. You have a unique opportunity to become more. My lieutenants here are going to make you stronger, faster, better at healing, and above all, immortal. My only requirement is that you come willingly.' 'And what if we don't!' one of the prisoners shouted, a stocky, but muscular man in his mid twenties, 'You just going to let us go?' 'No. You become food.' The man's eyes widened in horror, 'You don't...?' 'You come willingly, you will be treated with the respect you deserve, you help me get what I need, and you can rise up the ranks and achieve phenomenal rewards. Insubordination will not be tolerated, and lawbreaking will be punished harshly. First offences will result in punishments due your station and crime, you will be told what you did, and how it affects our cause. Second offences will be met with execution in front of your peers.' 'What are we to do when we join?' said a girl, barely out of her teens. 'You are to be separated into divisions best suited to your abilities, where you will serve in the name of your Great Lord Sifellon to fight the final war against the usurper who calls himself Yahweh.' 'I'd rather die than serve you, Nazi!' the stocky man said. Malthus stepped up to him and grabbed his neck, slamming the man against the wall of the cave, 'I am not a Nazi, and I resent being compared to those idiots. You are going to fight a nobler cause, not the conquest of lands, nor racial cleansing, nor revenge. You are going to fight to overthrow the greatest threat to the multiverse any man has ever known.'You are going to take down God.'

Download or read book The Rise of Finance written by V. Anantha Nageswaran and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financialisation, or the disproportionate importance of financial considerations in economic decisions, has been a defining feature of the economic history of the last twenty-five years. The wave of deregulation that accompanied the neoliberal agenda in the US, aided by the dominance of US dollar and American economy, has resulted in the globalisation of finance. This book examines the rise of financialisation globally, while charting its drawbacks and prescribing suggestions for a definitive overhaul of the structure. Bringing together various strands of the latest research and evidence generated in recent years, empirical analysis, and views of reputed experts in the field, it presents a counter-point to the canonical ideas of analysing financial market dynamics and financial globalisation. It proposes a revision of the current monetary policy paradigm to correct its excessive focus on equity markets and their 'wealth effect', embrace a more symmetric response to the economic cycle, and a mandate to focus on financial stability as much as price stability.
