    In your article “The destruction of capital…” you claim that until capital is destroyed to a sufficient extent, there can be no recovery in profitability, and thus no sustained recovery in terms of general economic growth.
    Do you think that what has happened so far represents a “sufficient” destruction of capital, or is it way too little to restore profitabilty?
    A lot of paper wealth has been wiped out (there are various estimates), and a lot of capital assets in the auto industry (and other industries as well) are being devalued, right? The collapse of housing prices is also (or can be) a sort of devaluation of constant capital.
    Is that enough, in your opinion?
    Thanks.
