U.S. Crisis, Italian Crisis and...China too?

In an 'economy that has long since lost the plot, the intricacies of a financial system that purports to regulate the real world in the total absence of common rules, we must return to the fundamentals of the economy.After decades of growth in the U.S. we have realized that the market is self-regulated. Put the profit as the only goal you can "play the bets" on the backs of States and individuals enmeshed in bureaucracies that slow responses to speculative attacks with a mouse click.How can we expect the market to be forgiving? And not ', then we need to find global rules of the game to play: it is not' no longer a heresy to say that the futures and similar instruments can not influence the market with this preponderance. The United States and Europe are groping in the dark with improvised answers and still slow browsing on demand and without a plan, but especially broad vision, shared and debated, not ideologies that can re-discuss the economy at least in the rules for a real relationship between goods, benefits and real wealth: for example, is still valid as an index of GDP? You can think of to keep on growing? Until you can finance puto investimneti wriggling on the 'real company? A study of the Financial Times showed that the investment funds that follow Islamic laws (which prohibit a bank loan and are therefore always linked to a real asset) are have shown that greater security of income over time: this can teach us something? Even the Americans have understood this: you can not create the debt since you want to read ... this crisis positively, and 'an' explicit request from the common rules of the market gone mad (it was the week with major fluctuations in the Dow Jones by when Wall Street does exist and the inventors of modern capitalism hannno lost their triple-A). We have created a global world and the media, the media web to a global real-time communication, but ok to tell us something?States are not attacked (see Germany) esprimopno values ​​beyond the market that have a political vision is not submissive and docile, but the directive and express a hope of economic growth on a path to seeking, to 'education, innovation , essentially the renewal of life for its citizens, states which use the market and none is used.Greece and 'was dishonest: its politicians (some of which express the attitudes of the people who elected them) they have been, and now the most vulnerable pay more. L 'Italy blames the crisis of his condition instead of thinking that the strikes against it with violence because this is more an effect than a cause. One effect of his lack of credibility and solvency rates linked to rampant corruption, tax evasion and failure to resolve its structural problems by the age-old certainty of a swift justice to the South link road to a regulation of immigration is essential, and species that do not handle sapiamo: things that have independent causes of the crisis but today it shows urgently.If we showed we want to solve these problems the markets did not attack us: and 'obvious that an economic measure as an agreement extremistra Republicans and Democrats in the U.S. is not enough.The crisis is a result of unresolved problems, not the cause. The violence in Egypt and Syria and also incotrollabilità of English society with the riots in London are the facets. Now there is no one is better: is China will do well to fear, and its accounts for at least a couple of reasons: not only because it is a main creditor of the U.S.. If we look at the fundamental fact, even though its GDP is growing faster than any other we know that much is due to 'exports and has deliberately kept low the value of its currency and that this is not the present value of its growth. And ok the GDP is high, but social inequalities are very large. At the bottom is a country without freedom, the more we are rich, the more you realize there. Once they meet the basic necessities for survival, they are asking for more rights, otherwise those who want to live in a country without freedom, a country that is rich enough and that it enriches some and impoverishes the many? At the end is a country in which it is useless to work: in short, do not end up doing the slaves who produce goods for the unemployed, the balance in the world must change, and the U.S. will lose its status as a leader only if China will open up to democracy ( and as sapiamo is not exportable and not won in a year) and Europe to its true unity, not only streamlined and economical.

When a people gets picked up by gunfire

 

Do not stop the protests and even repression. The wave of the Arab revolt continues. Today, the Syrian regime takes the crowd by gunfire in the city of Hama. If a people, whatever it is, take to the streets in this way means that something has happened. Excluding a 20% compound that can be considered to be "troublemakers" engaged in actions "terrorism" often with prearranged plans, then there are all the others. When even the rest of citizens, one that works, more or less pulls live, more or less do not give anything, that "not engaged" in short, that just wants to live his life regardless of who is in power, decides it is better to take to the streets to continue with their daily routine, then it means that the limit is exceeded. It does not matter for those people fighting for democracy that the abstract even know, but fighting the everyday sopprusi become unsustainable. There is the police beat for trivial reasons, widespread corruption, it becomes impossible to work, to express any idea becomes a minefield, everything becomes a compulsion. So. when enough is enough, instead you get caught with cannon.
