There is a wide range of alternative outcomes which are not identifiable under single phase logics driving the out of control bus.....within the broader universe outside of prevailing contrivance there is currently a wait and feel attitude, tapping into alternative idea pools, the current task. Systemic momentum will be counter programmed, by those whose arrival at the idea or revelation; that they have been ripped off, as vast Y pools identifies and aggregates, around new ideas, not currently part of the landscapes momentum or visual horizons. We are dealing with momentum along a trajectory....it is carried along by its self interest, but relies upon capitulation by others, which is by no means guaranteed. Proper characterization is needed but can not be made unless and until clarity is restored. This takes time, declarations of intent appear as incremental identification. Would not assume the present trajectory, or the self interest driving it, will prevail. The interconnectedness of prevailing power structures gets exposed in times of crisis, social engineering is an attempt to buy and pay for X at the expense of y.....the door to enter X, is narrower than portrayed, while the door for Y is wider than can be known. No sure things, but the future is looking so bright. We'll all be needing extra shades.

fully agree with your statement >>> the move in favor of gs and ms smacks of crony capitalism, more so than anything that had happened before the onset of asian financial crisis <<< as those guys manning those firms should go to jail IMHO but unfortunate they will not As to the FED move they where presented with a fact and they needed to act - should they know this a year ago - that is for sure but at this moment you must act and not dwell in history My only hope that after things settle then a serious investigation should proceed and those dreaming up the leverage and executing and pushing it should go to jail like in the S&L crisis and more - WS should be a place where few would like to work

Russian Putin calls for changing the architecture of the international financial system itar-tass.com "The whole world economy cannot depend on one money-printing machine” SOCHI, September 20 (Itar-Tass) -- Prime Minister Vladimir Putin called for changing the architecture of the international financial system. “We all need to think about changing the architecture of international finances and diversifying risks. The whole world economy cannot depend on one money-printing machine,” Putin said at the final press conference after a meeting of the Russian-French bilateral commission on cooperation in Sochi on Saturday. “This is a very serious issue that should be addressed in a calm, attentive and working manner without haste together with our colleagues from Europe and America,” Putin said. “This issue should be considered not in a confrontation-like way but very benevolently in order to find the most acceptable ways for the development of the world economy and world finances.” French Prime Minister Francois Fillon said he would put forth several initiatives within days for dealing with the world financial crisis. He said it was not possible yet to say whether France or Europe has survived the financial crisis. He believes it necessary to strengthen control and bring more transparency into cooperation between fiscal authorities of different countries. “We will be working on this together in the next couple of weeks,” he said.

speaking of using money to money instead of producing something useful to make money, I read an article in the Seattle Times a couple days ago profiling a program to retrain ex-soldiers to be currency traders. It reminded me in a big way of an article just before the nasdaq popped of a program in a prison to train soon-to-be released inmates how to 'day trade' so they'd "have a means to support themselves" when they reentered society. Somebody, Heinz I think, hailed that folly as surely indicating the tech bubble peak (I think it was within 8 days).
