Economy in the Great Depression.

Europe is not sufficiently mobilized to combat the debt crisis. Britain is the next country that will hold the title of "big sick" of the global economic system. United States are under the sword of historical debt. Japan defends its economic fundamentals, but still stagnant. China seems to be the savior of contemporary economic system. But China's problems: low standard of living, depending on their export markets and slowing economies, make this difficult. Overall I see a global economic downturn, increased taxation and a decrease in welfare, globally.
Unfortunately.

Razboiul lalelelor.

Incordare inutila de orgolii, aratare de bicepsi si bate de oina din partea autoritatilor romane drept raspuns la amanarea primirii in zona de libera circulatie Schengen. Laleaua prinsa in vama a pierdut, noi tot pe tusa suntem tinuti. Atitudinea razboinico-fanfaronada ne va costa insa in viitor, atunci cand Olanda ne va mai opri de la alte admiteri sau accederi.
Acum nu stiu daca Ikea se simte bine, nu de alta dar Nokia a plecat, iar finlandezii au decis si ei ca nu putem accede in Schengen.
Ce nu inteleg autoritatile noastre este ca nu cu Olanda sau Finlanda trebuie luptat, ci cu coruptie autohtona. Ce nu vor europenii mai vechi, este exportul acesteia sub diverse forme in Europa, din tarile noilor europeni.
Dar atunci cand Curtea Suprema albeste deputati si senatori si ii declara nevinovati de fapte care aduceau ani grei de puscarie in oricare alta tara europeana, reticenta de a fi admisi cu drepturi depline este usor de inteles.
Pana acum admiterile noastre au fost precum ale liceanului la facultate, mai o proptea, mai o fituica, mai o bariera laxa. Primirea in NATO a fost precedata de afaceri date celor cu drept de decizie, importuri in compensare, platite acum prin falimentul companiilor nationale prin care s-au derulat. Primirea in Europa a fost precedata de cedarea principalelor afaceri, bancile, petrolul, apa, gazele, energia si altele.
Acum cand tot ce ni se cere este sa ne curatam sistemul de coruptie si corupti, picam examenul. Oare Olanda nu vrea serele de la Codlea si sa ne mai lase cu cerintele politice!

MARSILIA atacul trenului de marfa.

Scene demne de lumea a treia in Franta. Hold-up-ul trenului cu bani devine realitate in orasul francez Marsilia, unde in unul din cartiere afost atacat trenul de marfa. Semn de criza, acum vreo 20 de ani in timpul crizei din Argentina se mai intamplau scene similare, in care populatia disperata ataca si jefuia trenurile ce transportau carnea de vita argentiniana la export.
In atacul francez au fost folosite carucioare de supermarket, printre altele, pentru a bloca sinele de tren, exact cand era programat sa treaca un tren de pasageri. Oprirea acestuia a determinat si oprirea tintei trenul de marfa, ale carui vagoane au fost deschise si marfa facuta sa dispara. Data viitoare poate vor executa si o colecta de bani, ceasuri, bijuterii si carduri in trenul de pasageri, asa precum in Vestul Salbatic.
Atacuri similare au mai fost inregistrate , tot la Marsilia in urma cu 2 ani, la debutul crizei mondiale.
Interesant de remarcat cat de repede un popor civilizat, cel francez, a trecut la metode de subzistenta intalnite pana nu demult la un alt popor civilizat, cel roman.
Criza mondiala si saracia implicit adusa de aceasta "naste monstrii".
Au bientout.

Chicago - streets under attacks

In the last weeks, Chicago population was under attack. Flash Mob attacks, according to some stories, with the purpose of theft.
That is what i had read in the Chicago Tribune.

And i remembered about street children of 1970 from a south american country, so called "piranhas", who attack in gang, in day time and leaves the victims without nothing.

Their reason for theft was survival, childrens with age from 8 to 10 years old, without family, alone on the streets.

Sure, is not the case of the recent attacks, but there are some things in common.

As a CSI, Criminal Minds & other series fan, it was surprise that, not even one video from public and private cameras, had emerged in the police investigations.
Anyway, in Chicago Tribune such facts do not appear.

A story to be followed this summer.

Is there a hope for US?

Only bad things have emerged about the economic situation of United States.

I have noticed that Austan Goolsbee, Obama chief economic adviser, had quit his job and is going back to "school". Is this another sign that US economy is sinking further? Obama is still president and a hard year is coming. This resignation is, also, for me, a sign of failure of economic measures, that were taken in the last years.

The legacy what was received from the prior administration is hard to overcome.

Solutions, exists, but are hard to accept.

First, a rise in taxation, for people and for bussines.

Then, in the same time, a decrese of expenses. Political debate is active in US congres about this two measures.

But only that two, is not sufficient. From what I seen when I went to US, is a lot to do in reducing energy consumption at basic level. More efficient and smaller (in power) cars. More efficient heater systems. When you are a landlord and offer houses for rent you are not so interested in what the renter will paid. But is a lot of room to reduce heating costs and energy consumption. Heater systems that are used, in for rent houses and apartments, are tehnological old.
Solar power, wind power, natural gas, thermal energy are solutions not only for future, but also for now.

US Debt Clock & the Limit.

According with "usdebtclock.org" , US debt subject to limit, is reaching 14.300.000.000.000 $ soon and all the bad things will come (according to press and treasury, also). Default on credit payments, unpaid social security, medical bills and school' expenses.

Probably after "cut the spending" negociations a new limit will be established.

But did really matter ?

Total personal debt is over 16,000 trillion $, debt per family 675,516 $, savings per family just 6,601 $.

Combined more than 30,000 trillion $, is an enormous and non-sustainble debt.

Economic measures are necessary now, is imperative to cut guvernamental spending, a better use of resources, more work to be done and less speculate on work done by others. Back to real economy, is the only sure bet.

From far and away, I hope to see less politics and much more responsability.
I like U US and wish U the best.

Finantele si Mozila Firefox.

Statul roman prin Ministerul Finantelor Publice favorizeaza browserul Internet Explorer in detrimentul competitorilor acestuia, de exemplu Mozila Firefox.

Conform experientei mele, pana acum o luna puteam verifica starea declaratiei 112 intrand prin Mozila, incepand cu luna mai 2011, atat la depunerea online cat si la verificarea starii, ulterioara depunerii, prin browserul Mozila rezulta eroare, gen uploadul nu poate fi efectuat, sau decalratia nu a fost depusa, desi la distanta de 1 minut prin Internet Explorer declaratia apare depusa.

Favorizare pe fata din partea unui mare utilizator, statul roman a IE.

Daca adaug la aceasta si achizitia centralizata de acelasi stat de licente Microsoft, pentru toata administratia publica, in defavoarea altor competitori, sau a licentelor open source, tabloul e complet.

In calitate de simplu utilizator de internet sunt nemultumit de aceasta stare de fapt, iar in calitate de contribuabil deasemenea.
