From a link posted earlier today;

A crucial lesson of these recurrent financial disturbances is that liquidity should not be withdrawn – at the domestic or international level – in times of crisis. Indeed, all Roundtable participants concurred that it is essential to infuse abundant liquidity into the system.

Also from that same report, something I find doesn't sit quite right.

Far more people have invested in the system than in the past, either through mutual funds or directly in the market, and many of these people are doing it with money they cannot afford to lose because they will need it for their retirement.

Wait a minute- if capital is not growing, then it is shrinking, by one postulate. Does this mean to say that only capital that can be 'lost' should be invested? It would seem such a message would ensure poverty of the masses.
