Dear editor,
Forget the stock market and the erroneous notion of a bailout. Let the market self-correct from its own gluttony.
U.S. voters need to take stock of an erroneous war, an erroneous financial system and the erroneous belief that their political system and leaders are up to measure.
A decline in growth is a necessary stopgap and breathing space. The environment, the next disaster in the making, will be all the better for it.
Korea should be critically rethinking its dependence on the U.S. economy.
