Inflationary Pause Before the Deflationary Collapse / Economics / Great Depression II
By: Janet_Tavakoli
Washington's Bipartisan Betrayal: The 2015 Global Financial Crisis - The time has come for new year's resolutions. The House passed the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2009 (H.R. 4173) on December 11, 2009. It gives $4 trillion in "emergency funding" to our largest banks during the next financial crisis. Instead of reform, Congress offers even bigger bailouts. Unless we change direction, we will have another crisis by 2015. Congress has made all the wrong moves to guarantee it.

2010-2020, The Decade From Hell II? / Economics / Recession 2008 - 2010
By: Peter_Schiff
In its recent look back on the first ten years of the century, Time Magazine proclaimed the period to be "the decade from hell." The editors made their case based on what they saw as the signature events of the last ten years, notably the ravages of terrorism, failed wars, and a global financial crisis. Taken together, these factors produced an era that Time is convinced will be remembered as one of the low points in our history.

China Leads the Way to Strong Global Economic Growth 2010 and Beyond / Economics / China Economy
By: Nadeem_Walayat
China is leading the way to the return of global growth with expectations for GDP growth for 2010 of as much as 10%, which further confirms expectations for the potential of a global growth story surprise to the upside for 2010. Whilst at the present time many analysts / commentators worry about China market bubbles, much as they worried about the "stocks bear market rally" that was always destined for an imminent demise during 2009 which instead was one of the greatest bull markets in history.

The Most Redeeming Feature of Capitalism is Failure / Economics / Economic Theory
By: Mike_Shedlock
There is an interesting interview in Barron's with two hedge fund managers called Shorting the Economic Recovery.
The fund managers who correctly predicted the housing collapse and the rise in gold, now predict the economy's next leg down. The second theme in the article is on capitalism, fractional reserve lending and what the government should have done.

China On the Verge of a Great Crash and Its Impact on Crude Oil Price / Economics / China Economy
By: Submissions
Dr. Raju M. Mathew writes: China is always a mystery. Nobody knows the depth and complexity of the problems of the Chinese Economy and Society, including the scholars and bureaucrats in China. Their words or expressions are confusing and self contradictory. The Chinese mind has been shaped by Confucius, then a series of wars, defeats and external dominances; then Mao and Chinese Communism and finally the Market Economy and Globalization. Globalization made a small group in China as super-rich who want to have all the pleasures enjoyed by the western billionaires.

By: Andrew_Abraham
There is a record wide spread on the yield curve currently. A record breaking 287 points. For those of you who do not know what the yield curve is…it is the difference between the 2 year and 10 year notes. Usually when there is a difference like this it usually means rapid economic growth as well as Inflation. This time because governments all over the world have run the printing presses and inflation is more of a potential outcome.

Does Economics Deserve a Nobel Prize? / Economics / Economic Theory
By: Global_Research
Michael Hudson writes: Reality & Relevance rather than "Purity" & Elegance are the Burning Issues in Economics Today.
It is bad enough that the field of psychology has for so long been a non-social science, viewing the motive forces of personality as deriving from internal psychic experiences rather than from man's interaction with his social setting. Similarly in the field of economics: since its "utilitarian" revolution about a century ago, this discipline has also abandoned its analysis of the objective world and its political, economic productive relations in favor of more introverted, utilitarian and welfare-oriented norms. Moral speculations concerning mathematical psychics have come to displace the once-social science of political economy.

The Economic of Bethlehem, Remembering the Inn Keeper / Economics / Economic Theory
By: LewRockwell
At the heart of the Christmas story rests some important lessons concerning free enterprise, government, and the role of wealth in society.
Let’s begin with one of the most famous phrases: "There’s no room at the inn." This phrase is often invoked as if it were a cruel and heartless dismissal of the tired travelers Joseph and Mary. Many renditions of the story conjure up images of the couple going from inn to inn only to have the owner barking at them to go away and slamming the door.
