blueblood Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 i think the world leaders will be very pissed off at Greeces decision to hold a referendum Yes they will, means more uncertainty and more people's retirements taking a hit.

At times it seems a little ra ra ra but they do bring up some good points: -Chinese minimum wage is rising at an incredible rate of 16% a year which means very soon it won't make financial sense, with things like shipping costs or technology piracy in China, to manufacture in China. Other countries that do have cheap wages are decades behind in infrastructure required to export on China's scale. -America is almost at energy self sufficiency with new tech providing "72pc of its own oil needs, up from around 50pc a decade ago. " -America is almost the only economic power with a fertility rate above 2.0 - and therefore the ability to outgrow debt - in sharp contrast to the demographic decay awaiting Japan, China, Korea, Germany, Italy, and Russia. World power swings back to AmericaThe American phoenix is slowly rising again. Within five years or so, the US will be well on its way to self-sufficiency in fuel and energy. Manufacturing will have closed the labour gap with China in a clutch of key industries. The current account might even be in surplus. telegraph - 23 Oct 2011 Edited November 1, 2011 by Post To The Left Quote

When I was a kid we had that...it was called loan sharking. Credit/loans are not free...nobody owes us $400,000 mortgages or $35,000 car loans because of a "social" obligation. I'm beginning to have more respect for those who at least accept the terms and shame of bankruptcy instead of whining about banks! Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Last I heard the government wasn't defaulting and Iceland would pay back all its debts and the Iceland ... ish, Icelanders? were supper pissed about it because they wanted to tell the International banks to go fuck off but the government paid it all back.

Replacing old debt with new debt won't solve any problems. Why? They owe the money. You can't just write it off. Otherwise it will have domino effect on other EU economies as it has already taken its toll on Germans. Quote
GostHacked Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 Sad it is indeed with the beginning of the end of capitalism.... Capitalism is not the problem. The problem is we have many crooks and thieves who run our countries. Quote
Topaz Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 Greece has become a welfare state and one of the reasons is the state doesn't collect the taxes owing and the corrruption within the country so its not surprising that more money is going out to its people than coming in from the people who owe. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Greece Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 Youre still pretending that those banks are really lending you their money. I don't care who is lending the money...I sure as hell know it isn't mine to demand and I have no human right for credit...sheesh! Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Or you can argue that banks have been lending money to the wrong people. In other words to those who realistically can not afford to pay back. Quote

The sooner that the international monetary system collapses the sooner we cant started building a functional and honest credit system. Complete nonsense. The banks are who funded Greece's spending spree over the last 2 decades. Greece is in this position because of Greece. Nobody else. They decided to deficit spend massively for a long period of time. Now the bill is due. Quote
