      Bailouts: Unfair to Non-Bailees
      We the people should insist on no dividends until all TARP money paid back and loan guarantees voided.

      In Search of the Next Reserve Currency
      National currencies are obsolete. Every contract will soon be tied to a global index of currencies, commodities, metals, etc. updated every second and freely found on the internet. Since printing money will be transparent, it will be useless to central banks and currencies will disappear like the Franc and Deutshmark.

      Three Reasons Why the Dollar's Not Yet Done
      The US supposedly publishes the money supply, and the Fed's slosh report is public. If they try a stealth print, eventually it will get noticed and long-term creditworthiness will suffer. No one I knew really thought the Euro would last this long, but it represents economic gain in the form of lower transaction costs and greater predictability (despite recent increased intervention).

      The most efficient economic system would contain a single currency. It will happen soon whether we agree to it or not, because in the next generation, everyone will have access to and know how to use the internet.

      If a government tries to print money, it will become immediately apparent to the world, and the index will adjust accordingly. It will be digital only, and based on a crunching of as many transaction prices as can be entered. Already grocery stores around the world track sales of chewing gum with scanned bar codes.

      All creditors will demand to be repaid under the adjusted global index. National currencies are obsolete.

      A Dual Strategy to Balance Banking Sector Trade
      All I have to say is that according to the Treasury Department JPM has $90,000,000,000,000 (trillion) notional exposure to derivatives.

      Maybe they made the right bets, maybe not.

      Promising Regional Banks For Patient Investors - Barron's
      One question. You say banks "are expected to be profitable next year..."
      Is that with the 700 billion dollar welfare program or without? Because others are lining up for their handouts, and they vote.
