    Short time work rescues Germany from massive increase in jobless numbers

    Austro-Hungary isn't what it used to be... Sure neither are the french or brits. Talk about a W shaped "recovery". The stimulus and hope all are going to hit in the last 6 months of 2009, this is make or break. Inflection point.

    Ideas for other "cash for ..." programs

    You said it well, all Wall Street is a middleman. The middleman now controls the economy. To make the famine stop, it'S not the middle man that needs propping up, it's the producer. I would have said cash for mortgages, that way people own houses and banks were made whole again. Instead...

    History suggests a much bigger, second wave of H1N1 influenza pandemic in the fall

    Oh it's a big company alright that makes the vaccines. And yes, they probably are making them right now. Hundred of millions. I believe it's GlaxoSmithKline. When the flu was announced, they were bemoaning that any vaccine would take months to manufacture and then only in quantities of a few...

    "bonus paid exceeded annual profit" translation : FUCK YOU shareholders. So much for always putting the shareholder first, all is justified theory, championed by Wall Street. Hypocrites.

    How You Finance Goldman Sachs’ Profits: old GS managing director speaks out.

    Anyone remember GM's 25 billion loss just before they went bankrupt? That's what CEOs do. They manage through legal accounting manipulation to skim off 1 billion of losses, 2 billion of losses and pass them forward. At some miraculous date, they can get rid of them. It's easy to beat...

    Czech president bashes EU leaders, economic policy

    What a mouthful. I respect the guy, because he puts economic growth above political pandering. This is the scariest sentence: "This so-called new model of European financial supervision covertly aims to centralize economic policy of the member states, and that behind the backs of their...

    China to deploy foreign reserves

    It's not terribly bad when the chinese reserves are recycled, which strengthens liquidity. However, this simply means they will own more and more of the world. The strategy is completely consistent with first becoming really competitive. Kinda like Coca Cola that first becomes #1, then buys...

    More and more people talk of the W shaped recovery. I mean, even 2001-2003 had a W shaped recovery of sorts with 2002 being a year of hope and 2003 getting worse.

    Free workers taking away the jobs

    It's good they're bringing the issue of legality into it. It's tough to run a consumer economy that keeps outsourcing everything, but it's even harder running a consumer economy where everyone works for free! But what a disturbing trend. Hopefully people will realize the "recession" is more...

    Hu Jintao’s Son Linked to African Corruption Probe

    Corruption is a way of life for politicians, but especially chinese politicians. What is there to expect? Politicians at that level are probably proud of it.

    Here's a really good down to earth guy, an Iraq veteran too, who always has a good point to bring. He talked about this very issue yesterday! Said that riots would begin. Not affiliated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FXt-28R0Zs&feature=channel_page

    Is this about China? No? fuck off. You're beginning to look more and more of a troll. I might put you on ignore. GS also got billions and billions in stealth bailouts through AIG. Makes your whole post about how godly they are a farce. But you didn't know that, because you talk with your...

    Japanese Finance minister "convinced" stocks will rise

    Hey calling for a stock market recovery is easier than calling for an economic recovery. It could rise on all kinds of technical developments! Soon presidents will say they predict "green shoots" and "less pain" in the future, hurray!
