"I appreciate the efforts to explain the economic anomalies being trumpetted in the world media (mainly the US and Great Britain) but sometimes we are forced into the wrong slot of consideration.
Most of the commentary re China, in all this mess, relies on false assumptions..that Peking is in total control... the remnants of Mao still directing. Even when Keynes is thrown in, it is assuming that socialist tenets are at work, thanks to post Mao bureaucrats.
My point has been that we are not dealing with one China but two and that the second is closely allied with American business objectives, separate and apart from government ones.
The Overseas Chinese are rugged individualists who keep in contact with each other since info is their life line. They are everywhere in the world. You can go to the depth of any continent, into any hamlet or village and 9 out of 10, you will find there is a Chinese business rep there and he has nothing to do with Peking! Peking has been exploiting the ignorance of America re this situation and wherever else they can find gullible ignoramous.
Take the recent visit of Peking officials to Italy. Our media assumes that they are there to buy in to the crisis in Europe. The real fundamental is that the Overseas Chinese now own the "thread" industry in Italy as well as the distribution of parts used in every Italy industry still functioning and their wealth is in dollars, including US Treasuries. Peking goes to Rome to re-assure their OC "partners" they are truly with them while shining up Peking's tarnished image in Europe. Unlike Russian Magnets, the Chinese "capitalists" have not made a big swath since they know such swagger can be a problem more than an asset, given their quiet life styles. Peking is hoping that by acting the broker, government to government, the OC will continue to co-operate with them as trade issues become more difficult and currency problems mount in this ongoing euro crisis. Any dollar infusion from Peking, in this medley in Europe, will depend on the OC's tending ther dollar reserves since Peking has few of them in hand... the OCs have taken them back to their free citadels! What is happening is that Peking is bargaining with the OCs and that should tell you Peking is not in control!
The Europeans are more astute than Washington! They have a trading advantage since they know all about the OC. These roving capitalists have been the ace in the hole for Great Britian, France, Italy and most of South America in so many nearmisses in the last two centuries that it would take a library to hold the data! For illustration, think about why Walmart, which achieved its initial success by trading only "made in USA" goods, today trades so much "made in China" ones. Many an American business has saved itself from rapacious American investors by getting aid from the local Chinese business group!" …. Posted by nithsdale on 10/30/11 04:58 PM
"What is happening is that Peking is bargaining with the OCs and that should tell you Peking is not in control! " .... Posted by nithsdale on 10/30/11 04:58 PMThat may or may not be case, nithsdale, and it may or may not make any significance difference. Some would tell you though, that the Chinese are smart enough to realise that such speculation as might seek to divide communities and nations is one of those peculiarly western weaknesses which render opponents and competition practically powerless in the virtual sense, and it is not anything they would wish to afflict and inflict upon themselves, given the chaos and conflicts that it delivers upon host nations and divided administrations with official oppositions, and how stupid is that provision in a fraudulent democracy and wannabe autocracy.
Does not what you have shared not simply tell all, and everyone, that China is enabled and able to exercise remote global control ........ and that is Real SMART Power indeed. And in deed, is it not perfectly at one with Sun Tzu, who shares wisdoms beyond compare ..... http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/s/sun_tzu.html ...... and has done so for millennia, which is as good as, since forever.

Just try applying !" … rick
Just try finding an email address to apply to, and a human to engage with. Someone able to make a decision and transfer money, which today is just a click of a mouse to load a working current account with magically conjured credit, a novel currency easily charged and discharged and whenever necessary lost in the accounts and secret bank accounts with all those others benefitting from floats on the seas of quantitatively eased funds.The virtual world with its transparency, and instant communication of discovered secrets and novel solutions buried in the pending in trays of the intellectually challenged public servant with delusions of grandeur and the hubristic pretentions of a wannabe leader, absolutely terrifies the establishment, but it is the establishment which/who will have to change their decidedly dodgy views and still analogue and pedestrian way of doing things, for at every turn which would try to conceal a difficulty and not share what they do in the back room for transfer into closed cabinets and offices, does the system now out them.
The Past is Gone, Embrace the Future and Fully Expect IT to Reflect in the Present, that Everything has Changed for the Better with a Wealth for All to Instantly Remove and Forever Banish and Destroy Poverty to Create Powerful and Creative Industries and Caring Economies and Render Banks and Bankers as just Valuable and Valued Machines for Distributing Cash to Populations, rather than as they are now presently geared and globally perceived to be, Parasitic Public and Private Institutions Enslaving and Holding them to Impossible Ransom with Banks Debts.
And a Clear and Present Danger and Resident Evil, and Evil Futures and Derivatives Trade, by any Name.

Much ado about nothing .... and you know it is so ..... an observation on this tale, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/10/31/britain_attacked/

“I am inviting governments, international organisations, NGOs and businesses from across the world to a conference in London in November. We have a shared responsibility to address the challenges presented by the networked world including cyber crime that threatens individuals, companies, and governments. It is vital that cyberspace remains a safe and trusted environment in which to operate. This can only be done effectively through international cooperation, engaging both the public and private sectors. Together I hope that we can begin to build the broadest possible international consensus on how to realise the enormous economic and social benefits the Internet offers. It is crucial that we start a focused dialogue now”. .... William Hague
In cyberspace, there is no place to hide lies and deceit, which very effectively renders governments and their lackeys as impotent and frustrated spectators to all that is shared about governments and their lackeys who want to be leaders in the field, and players in virtual fields which do not suffer the folly of fools who provide conflict as a tool for resolution of difficulties they would be defeated in with simple logic and a valid changed perspective and alternate undeniable view on reality.And quite what the conference will actually do, apart from expelling a lot of hot air, is exceedingly vague, Mr Hague, and will probably just result in calls for reports and agreements for future meets to further discuss the progress that will not have been made in the field. Is that not what governments do especially well whenever all they are interested in is maintaining the status quo to their personal advantage?
How about you start a New and QuITe SurReal Great Game, which will require definitely, that someone else start it with a Beta Command of Controlling IT ....... which is sort of what everyone thought the Office of CyberSecurity and the Cyber Security Operations Centres of GCHQ and the Cabinet Office were all about, but obviously aren't, which makes that £650,000,000 provided, a nice little earner for nothing peculiar ..... but you can be sure it is for someone in particular. And now a £1,000,000,000 honey pot is trailed and trialed to kickstart a dead donkey of an administrative executive in dire straits need of Colossal Cloud Thinking.
Does anyone have an email address to a direct source of intelligence capable of dealing with novel products and virtual projects for struggling moribund governments?

For Mr Blair – who set up his eponymous foundation after leaving Downing Street to promote religion as "a powerful force for good in the modern world"
I think you would find that the reason is more likely to be the tax-free status of a faith foundation .... and there is nothing altruistic about that.http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/the-two-faces-of-tony-blair-6255021.html

"Interesting article. I believe,all these wars are planned and are very profitable for the suppliers of weaponry. It would be nice to see the names of those who profit from all this bloody mayhem. I believe, we are ruled by war criminals.

steveg/Stephen J.Gray, Hi,
Regarding Posted by steveg on 10/31/11 10:23 AM
Are William Hague and the joint PMs, David Cameron and Nick Clegg and presumably also, for good measure, Sir John Sawers, all war criminals in the same vein as Tony Blair and Jack Straw and Alastair Campbell and John Scarlett... .. oh and let's not forget Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown?
