From Measuring Labor’s Share of Income (PDF, 11 pages) by Paul Gomme and Peter Rupert:

From Finance is Not the Economy (2016) by Dirk Bezemer and Michael Hudson:
Immoderate debt creation was behind that “Great Moderation”. That is what made this economy the “Great Polarization” between creditors and debtors. This financial expansion took the form more of rent extraction than of profits on production — a fact missed in most analyses today.
