Short America, sell the dollar

We Need a Second Stimulus Immediately, Says James Galbraith......No. More bailout just means more opportunities for people like Galbraith and corporations liek Goldman Sachs to leech and suck that Timuklus money. .................The unemployed need more opportunitties to expand into. And that means repealing and reverting and aboloshing restrictive rules and laws such as Pattern Day Trader rules...........The sooner US Congress acts to revert restrictive rules such as Pattern day Trader rules, the sooner unemployed and young people will get opportunities to expand themselves productively.........Pardon my French, Jim Cramer!

Niall Ferguson is an historian NOT an economist! He is also an apologist for the British Empire and a flak for the 'Globalization' crowd. Why does anyone listen to this guy? and how does he get such exposure for someone with such little credibility?

Yeah that first one worked so well. It is like doing something that does not work (for whatever reasons) and it not working and then doing it again expecting it to work the second time. Galbraith needs to say in the classroom where twenty year olds will believe what he has to say. Otherwise Galbraith (as well all of academia) has no place in the real world.

If you can not make sure most of the stimulus money goes to the right place, it is better NOT to have one. Apparently, neither our beloved president nor our smart politicians can guaranty anything. In fact they are helping GS to take most our hard-working earned tax. U.S is doomed with these blood suckers siting in their chair, cheer!

What an idiot.

Yeah, let's keep unneccessary gov't workers. We should trim payrolls on the state and federal level. The amount of waste is out of control. Galbraith has said some things that make perfect sense but this is idiotic.

Well thats a brilliant philosophy. I think I'll try it. Because a maxed out credit card is far less concern than having to watching a low def tv on anything but a lazyboy! Whats the point of full employment when every dime we all make has to pay back a huge debt. Krugman and Galbraith are the biggest idiots on the planet.

This unhealthy fixation with Keynesian economics is a telltale that this has become a nation of spoiled brats. All credit bubbles result in pain, that is why they are to be avoided in the first place. Using Keynesian logic one should go out and break a leg simply because doctors can put a cast on it.

taking a hammer to my leg at the moment

They should invest heavily in science. Nobody wants to fund science, then they bitch that we're falling behind the rest of the world.

Throw the republicans out of congress and then something can finally get done.

and people in He!! need ice water.....

More excessive debit spending will fix everything. wink wink....Actually I believe the unemployed just don't count in the economy, they are like dependent children; the 85% employed spender is what counts. The unemployed spend every last cent they have, so any pittance thrown to them come right back into the economy. As the employed loosen their wallets up and get tired of being afraid, they will spend, and the economy will get better slowly but surely. Then people will be hiring again.....This all happened back in the 1970's. and it took a long time for all those young baby boomers fresh out of high school and college to get assinulated into the work force.

GO BACK TO ACADEMIA TO CRAZY LIBERAL KEYNESIAN HACK!!!

What we need is Chinese bankers to run our economy. Three houses of government - Bankers, Media, Politicians. Time to out source all three. Vote in 2010

You've got to be kidding me with this guy, California is broke because they spend too much, the fed gov't should not be propping this up.
