...Financial engineering must be constructive and bear value not just to financial firms, but also to the inherent goals of the world of finance—providing credit and financing to firms and households. The industry’s latest ideas seem more like “Modest Proposals?? than serious pitches, more tongue-in-cheek ways to expose the industry’s greed than earnest ideas to provide financial services. The future will certainly be grim if, in the drive to resurrect the financial markets, reason and ethics are further abandoned along...

Their parodies are incisive, and their policy proposals??which range from permitting pets in dorm rooms to the installation of a Hapsburg prince—amusing. While we do not consider them viable options to run the Undergraduate Council (and the candidates themselves may agree with us), they have made an interesting contribution to the election...
