That is true as long as there is a rebound though. Why would there be a return to normal after this?

It makes sense that they're prone to the falacy of expecting things to carry on happenning mostly as they've happenned in their lifetimes, same as everybody else.

That being so, it makes sense that they are certain that there will be a rebound "because it's always what has happenned after a crash".

Or, if you want an historical reference, the Monarchy in France right up to the French Revolution never expected than no matter how much they exploited the rest, they themselves would end up on guillotines.

They don't want a return to normal, they want a return to feudal slavery. The financial warfare is just a means to that end until the point where money doesn't matter anymore.
