LL,

I have found it more enjoyable to make up my own cuss words and phrases. My favorite lately is "You fuzzy assed penquin fish sniffer."

I hope the Middle East cools down (!)

Our pecksniffian politicans notwithstanding, I think they've been outdone in terms of being scoundrels, by bankerdom.

Yep.

As the Germans have to try to save the euro. There is no choice. No one but a nihilist welcomes chaos.

"I think it likely that the Fed had to do what it did today"

That's the thought process that is being used to turn a blind eye to corruption and criminal behavior on Wall-Street.

Mark my words, it will bring this society down. Corruption at the top begets corruption everywhere.

RD Could you elaborate for me what you are trying to convey? Thx

Sorry for the late reply. The IPCC has taken a controversial science issue and politicized it and literally steered it off the road science is paving.

I hear you, personally, and I believe so do many others, even here.

yes. It's ironic that we decry the "technocrats" now managing our economy and governments, yet attempt to ascribe human motives to the institutional machine they serve

In a way, the situation is much more difficult than if there were only a cadre of human villains to be confronted. This is something much more daunting and mysterious. It's dark and huge, and it looms. We made it, and now it constructs us.

Is being chained to a ravenous dog named corruption worth the price of keeping up appearances, pavel?

Ok time for anecdotal observations. My customers are very right leaning to the point that most would call them the "hatriot" wing of the GOP. Even they have figured out that the entire system is a corrupt POS that needs to be rebooted asap. The. Game. Is. Over.

I really would support enriching bankers beyond the dreams of avarice if it resulted in the improvement of the lives of the majority. It doesn't, and that is what people are figuring out.

You've basically said we have to perservere, regardless of how onerous of a beast we become in the process, in order to keep the status quo intact.

Or do I have it wrong?

I was speaking with someone yesterday about risk management at big banks - we both agreed that there was no one who had any idea what a banks risk was a a given point in time due to the counterparty risk, credit risk, etc. I speculated that it was mostly dumb luck that they had some positions that did well when others did poorly but if correlations go to 1 they are screwed. He pretty much agreed..

Absolutely. There is a lovely 22,000 sq ft home on 67 acres that would be perfect for you,and the price is right.

Remember, kids - it was inevitable and correct that Timmay sent the equivalent of a year's federal spending over to europe in the dead of night to totally anonymous counterparties with absolutely no congressional, judicial or executive review.

Inevitable, correct, and.... glorious.

China Lifts Electricity Price, Caps Coal Cost - Bloomberg

Spot coal prices will also be limited. Thermal coal with an energy value of 5,500 kilocalories per kilogram at northern Chinese ports will be capped at 800 yuan a metric ton starting Jan. 1, the statement said.

Benchmark prices at Qinhuangdao, the nation’s largest coal port, rose to as much as 860 yuan a ton on Oct. 23, the highest level since 2008, as utilities built up stocks to meet winter demand, according to the China Coal Transport and Distribution Association. The price was at 840 yuan to 850 yuan on Nov. 27.

All these talking points should come in handy when fannie and freddie head out to get their next bailout.

What gave you the impression the honorable Senator from the South can read? Reading's a bit of a handicap on both sides of the aisle. We won't see many Moynihans any more, since all you have to do now is speak in sound bytes. Makes me almost nostalgic for Jesse Helms and Robert Byrd, almost.
