The rich are different from you and me. ...Michael,<br /><br />The rich are different from you and me. By rich, I'm talking about the old money that has hidden their wealth in so many places that they've lost track of it.<br /><br />If you had a trillion dollars in your family, would you care about keeping American living standards high, or maintaining some control after the coming rise of other countries? Also, once robots and drones and all the other automated stuff is ready, why would you need such a large peasant population? Granted, that might be another 20 years, but you have to plan if the world is your oyster.HongKongnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20377909.post-34520987396273911092009-11-07T16:59:43.800-08:002009-11-07T16:59:43.800-08:00Alex is a big time shill!

For one, most countries there subsidize college education, so there are much fewer college loans. Also, a far smaller percentage of Europeans own homes than in the US, so there are less home loans. Most European contries' economies are in recession, too. Spain, Iceland, the UK, Italy, and eastern Europe are not doing well at all.<br /><br />And the Asian economies, particulartly China and India, are still growing. It may take them decades to achieve the economic success that America enjoyed in the last half of the 20th century.<br /><br />I think this is a result of stupidity and short term greed.Michaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20377909.post-9068355609915865542009-11-05T09:18:51.809-08:002009-11-05T09:18:51.809-08:00Hi Randy, I just came across your blog and noticed...Hi Randy, I just came across your blog and noticed that you post similar content to what my company publishes.

Anyway, I wrote the following with apologies if I missed your point. I'm just a little emotional right now.<br /><br />~~~<br /><br />Why the Eff pick on Obama? He's just a clone. <br /><br />THERE'S NOT DIFFERENCE between the DEMS and REPUBS!!!<br /><br />They just keep us WARRING between ourselves while they rape and pillage our bank accts BLIND.<br /><br />Our REAL LEADERS ARE the GOLDMAN SACHS GANG. THEY OWN us. THEY RULE. <br /><br />And guess WHAT? These TRUE POWER BROKERS have moved OFFSHORE so they DON'T have to pay any US taxes.<br /><br />We're so RIPPED.<br /><br />These STIMULUS Payouts are GOING to Conglomerates who will LOAN ALL OUR stimulus money to India Indians, Chinese, the New Frontier. Americans be damned. <br /><br />They are DUMPING on US, taking our credit, raising our FEES, lobbying to Hell and Back to get ALL the benefits and perks and legal crap they need to control us ALL.<br /><br />We're so pwned. <br /><br />WHEN ARE WE ALL GOING TO GET A CLUE?<br /><br />WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET OFF FIGHTING OVER POLITICIAN PAWNS who get goodies, hookers, luxuries, perks, benefits, rights, IF they play the game?<br /><br />Politicians have become WHORES. That's IT.<br /><br />FORGET OBAMA. FORGET BUSH.<br /><br />It's Cheney and his Power Crowd that bark and we JUMP.<br /><br />So go ahead. Pick on some no power nothing.

It doesn't make sense - why would international bankers want to kill most of us and make the rest poorer? We are their customers. The poorer people become, the more they default on their credit card, home, and school loans. It makes a lot more sense for banksters to keep countries prosperous, so that people can continue to be debt slaves all their lives. <br /><br />I think Alex gives the people at the top too much credit. America's decline is the result of gov't corruption and short term corporate greed. Corporations have had huge short run prosreity by replacing their US workforce with cheaper foreigners. They have paid off the gov't thru campaign contributions to pass NAFTA, GATT, enter the WTO, and give China favored trading partner status. But the long term effect has been to destroy the US consumer market. We are now at this point. If corporations and international bankers were smart, they would keep the country prosperous and skim a little off the top.Michaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20377909.post-30527191135142981182009-11-02T02:02:33.964-08:002009-11-02T02:02:33.964-08:00Roubini has a solid piece in FT:
