Greenspan cuts recession with interest rates to 1%IS - all the time, the Internet makes one single global market, everybody watching each other
The derivatives market - “pyramid game?”- 600.000.000.000.000 $, world doubling every two years the last decade, real value 15, as US economy
The core problem- the belief that the market will regulate itself, even the soaring derivatives- the rise of the internet, informing enhanced the herd behavior- They had to know what they were doing!!! Predicted by several scientists.- No or minor punishment to the establishment (banks …)- Is this crises deliberable to increase profits of the greedy elites?
The problem now- Problems persist, Euro problem persists- Austerity measures hamper growth- Interest rates in beneficiable for the banks- No simple solution in sight
Possible solutions- Increase inflation to 5%- Write-off some depth- Print more money?- Long-term solutions: neoliberalism problematic (stopping population): in the last 30 years 99% in USA +5%, 1% +300 percent demographic, pension reforms, reforms of the social order (social capitalism)oil – energy – ecological problems
