I was in Finance when the first part of the outcome of that shit hit in 2008 and subsequent years (and I say "first part" because we're still living it and it looks a lot like there are still more 3rd and further order consequences of it unfolding for people) and damn, that shit really forced me to realize just how evil and hypocrite neoliberalism and neoliberals really are.

By the way, I absolutely counted as an "useful idiot" up to then.
