Its interesting for the last 100 years or so when the US economy sneezed everyone else got sick and its happening again. But I wonder is this the last time that this will happen? Maybe we are about to realize that the center of the economic world has shifted east. Man we have collectively squandered trillions on crap. We could have been so much further than we are. It probably ends up like this every time Rome, Britain, City States etc…..Don’t trust the government.

September 16, 2008 at 11:36 PM in reply to: So How Would You Define Our Economic Ideology Now? #271260pedroconParticipantCorporate Kleptocracy that is a very good description. Basically, we are starting to look more and more like a third world country where there is an oligarchy ( Wall Street and the Political elite) who break the laws of the land and do whatever they want and if someone calls them on it they shut them down or change the laws. Our political system is joke. Remember the government doesn’t solve problems it makes problems. The axis has moved east. Shanghai is the New NYC. Beijing is the new Washington. Singapore, Taipei, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Mumbai this is where things are happening now. Get used to it. Remember, the only constant is change. We had a good ride there for a while though didn’t we?

pedroconParticipantI think the likelihood of financial meltdown particularly in the short term is far greater than what you have discussed. Its good not to over react but its also wise not to bury your head in the earth.
