QUOTE OF THE DAY:

 

"The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes.  The business of Conservatives is to prevent mistakes from being corrected. Even when the revolutionist might himself repent of his revolution, the traditionalist is already defending it as part of his tradition. Thus we have two great types -- the advanced person who rushes us into ruin, and the retrospective person who admires the ruins.  He admires them especially by moonlight, not to say moonshine. Each new blunder of the progressive or prig becomes instantly a legend of immemorial antiquity for the snob. This is called the balance, or mutual check, in our Constitution."


                                                                               -- Gilbert Keith Chesterton,
(1874-1936) British essayist, critic, poet, and novelist
                                                                                                                  Source: Illustrated London News, 1924

WORLD FINANCIAL DILEMMA

 

 

Waterboard the Fed?

American taxpayers have the right to know where the trillions of dollars being pledged in their name are going

The basic story is straightforward. The US Congress has lent more than $700bn, via the Treasury, to bankers at below market interest rates through the troubled assets relief programme, or Tarp. This was to keep the banks from going belly up. At the same time, the Fed has lent more than $2 trillion to banks and non-financial institutions to maintain liquidity in the financial system.

China still buying record amounts of U.S. bonds: report

China's official foreign exchange manager is still buying record amounts of U.S. government bonds, in spite of Beijing's increasingly vocal fear of a dollar collapse, the Financial Times reported. In a story on its website, the FT quoted Chinese and western officials in Beijing as saying China was caught in a "dollar trap." The newspaper said China had little choice but to keep pouring the bulk of its growing reserves into U.S. Treasuries, which remains the only market big enough and liquid enough to support its huge purchases.

 

Government debt swells as choices get harder

This year, the government is borrowing 50 cents of every dollar it spends... It is a relentless curve of red ink that will, within the decade, take U.S. debt levels to the record reached at the end of World War II, from 40 percent of the nation's output now to 80 percent, and then rapidly thereafter into the realm of banana republics. Japan has lost its AAA credit rating, the United Kingdom may soon follow, and there is talk that the United States is headed fast down the same path.

Drug cartels raise the stakes on human smuggling

Exploitation of illegal immigrants has become worse, officials say, and the failure of U.S. agencies to work together has hindered efforts to stop the organizations.

Reporting from Washington — Mexican drug cartels and their vast network of associates have branched out from their traditional business of narcotics trafficking and are now playing a central role in the multibillion-dollar-a-year business of illegal immigrant smuggling, U.S. law enforcement officials and other experts say.  The business of smuggling humans across the Mexican border has always been brisk, with many thousands coming across every year.  But smugglers affiliated with the drug cartels have taken the enterprise to a new level -- and made it more violent -- by commandeering much of the operation from independent coyotes, according to these officials and recent congressional testimonies.
