Anyone read down in United States of Europehttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...-Brussels.html

to see THIS (paraphrased):

Something worse, emerging from the darkness.

The “occupy” protestors, are correct, but for completely the wrong reason.
An impartial (?) study, based on methods used to study Ecology & Biological systems shows the following results:

AND, all these companies all appear to own each other.
In other words, it’s a closed, unelected Oligarchy.

This chart lines up with the great depression trends and our current one. This is the best example and illustration of what is possible.

Halloween will be special not only to the kids but to the adults also. We should be shouting out, "Tricked with No Treat".

Investors Wait Warily for Europe Bank Rescue

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/24/b...e-plan.html?_r=1&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha25

If, as the leaders have pledged, the final details are announced when the summit meeting wraps up on Wednesday, it could quell the worst fears of investors by taking the risk of a financial collapse off the table.

But if the talks break down, some investors said Wall Street might need to brace for a repeat of the turmoil that followed the Lehman Brothers’ downfall in 2008.

Nor had they reached agreement on how steep the write-offs would be that holders of Greek debt might be required to take. But as Greece’s economy has deteriorated, some policy makers are now suggesting that banks will need to take much bigger losses, perhaps as much as 60 percent.
 
Spain Deficit Slip Raises Contagion Risk

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...hances-of-contagion-increase-euro-credit.html

European leaders’ failure to end the debt crisis risks “a vicious circle” in which “deficit reduction weighs on growth, rendering targets unachievable and triggering more downgrades, eventually leading” to default.

Policy makers must ensure that euro-area nations’ debt will be repaid even without growth.
 
Treasury Eyes Floating Notes as First New Debt Since TIPS

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...s-since-tips-with-u-s-floating-rate-note.html

The U.S., seeking to attract investors who might otherwise avoid Treasuries amid a $1.3 trillion budget deficit, is considering the sale of floating- rate notes in what would be its first new security since it began offering inflation-linked debt 14 years ago.

While the government’s interest in offering a new type of bond may signal that it doesn’t expect deficits to diminish anytime soon, the securities would likely appeal to investors concerned that the Federal Reserve’s pledge to keep the federal funds rate at a record low through mid-2013 and other stimulus will spark inflation.

There are signs that foreign demand may be diminishing. Fed data show its holdings of Treasuries on behalf of central banks and institutional investors outside America plunged $76.5 billion in the seven weeks ended Oct. 12, the steepest drop since 2007, to $2.69 trillion.

The notes “would very likely be snapped up by investors, as many now buy fixed-rate Treasuries and use the swaps market to convert them into floating-rate debt anyway, to hedge the risk exposure to changing interest rates.
