The attacks on the US that occurred 11th September, 2001, killed 3000 people, injured about 7000, cost and less than a billion dollars. Maybe a little more when welfare payments and rebuilding is factored in. The US following the attacks was still going strong.
The mismanagement that has lead to the current economic crisis will likely cost trillions of dollars, and has achieved what no terrorist organisation has managed to do thus far — cripple economies.
Nicely done fellas… but you can save the encore… we’re in enough of a mess already.
Controversial post, but I generally agree.
