Looking on the bright side; up until the last few years maths and physics graduates would have been employed by banks to calculate the complete lack of risk in lending your money and my money to an unemployed crack addicted single mother who wants to buy a SUV and a large house in Detroit.
Reminds me of that fictional software package written by Richard MacDuff in Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. The one that latched onto the fact that most people don't want computers to tell them things they don't wish to know, but rather would prefer to start with an unlikely premise and have the computer work out the logical steps that would allow them to come to their desired conclusion. Thereby causing banks to give car loans to people that couldn't afford it, but in ways that appeared entirely logical in retrospect, even when they subsequently went on to wrap their new purchases around a lamp post the very next week. Douglas Adams was a man that was way ahead of his time.
