The Paradox That Broke Wall Street
October 13, 1989: Wall Street plunges 7% in a single hour, sending tremors through trading floors still haunted by Black Monday's ghost. At a Cambridge conference days later, Larry Summers radiates confidence-government safeguards have created impenetrable firewalls between finance and the real economy. Across the room, economist Hyman Minsky offers a darker prophecy: every successful rescue operation only emboldens greater risk-taking. Two decades later, the 2008 financial meltdown would vindicate Minsky's warning in spectacular fashion. What if our most sophisticated safety measures don't protect us-but instead create the conditions for catastrophe? This counterintuitive insight lies at the heart of a phenomenon that explains everything from forest fires to financial crashes: the more secure we feel, the more danger we court.
