Those comments appeared in a 1966 article Greenspan wrote.

That's correct. The article is also indicated in the book 'The Creature from Jekyll Island'.

when asked about this 1966 comment in march of 2001

According to the source, Greenspan -- following a March House Banking Committee meeting -- told one lawmaker that if given a chance to add any "disclaimers" to the 34-year-old article, Greenspan said he still "would not change a single word."
We can ignore reality but we can’t ignore the consequences of ignoring reality.


The truth will set you free,
but first it's really going to piss you off.
