Wow, they're dumber than I thought if they think this makes their point.
Although then again, their general ideals have swayed the more mainstream of many large western governments and international financial institutions for 40-50 years.
So there must be something to this tactic of making a hotch-potch of random graphs.
yeah, Bretton-Woods - was so much more about a broader scope of bank regulation - to try control and stabilise investment and capital creation for the good of domestic businesses (ideally small businesses) across all international members of B-W.
Throwing all that regulation away - essentially led to over-concentration of unregulated financial power with little to no incentive (or requirement) for them to work in the domestic interests - all the great stuff that comes from that (and it really is great - for some people).
Couple that with the small govt-ism that came in in the late 70s and there's not even a state investment sector to prop up growth during recessions.
Its one of those things where they experiment with something really important and before it's even been tested for long enough, they whip out the safety net.
"We won't need that anyway once the banks are deregulated - they'll fly in and catch us when we fall - they're very fine people ." At least they'll catch us for long enough to sort out foreclosure/eviction and make sure borrowers take all the risk of asset price movement.
Pretty much jack-all to do with gold - that was done with in the 20s pretty much in all but name.
I dunno i read all those graphs and think.
Well there was a lot of banking deregulation from 1971 onwards?
Let's give that bank regulation idea another shot maybe - it can't do worse.
. . .but then i also think - good on china for that one child policy.
I'm just not getting anywhere near the Hayeck conclusion from the same data.
Yeah thanks for posting the link, that's where I saw it but I closed the page before copying the link.
At that point it (the CBS transcript) suggests like the guy was also the investigators prime suspect - so kudos to them for continuing the investigation despite the coroners verdict.
At least a couple of police doing their job properly.
Those 2 Israelis were probably supporting hamas and spreading hamas propaganda and eating jewish babies. why else would they be in gaza? Real journalists can get all the evidence they need sitting in Tel Aviv to do honest unbiased journalism. They shoudl be working on articles about all the nice upcoming new beachfront luxury properly development opportunity in south-west israel.
It's anti-semetic to fall for these journalist costumes being worn by all these hamas agents - the world should be grateful it is now safe from their lies and suicide bombs.

Are you saying that it is not dystopic? or it's not comonplace enough to be boring?
I'm glad we dont have/need (probably can't afford) that shit where i live.
Do they have them at sports events and carnivals, music festivals and stuff like that too?
I hope that coroner gets told to have a re-think about this policy : "well, I have to take the husband's statement at word value"
If I was a life insurance company I'd immediately be adding a "we won't pay out in Kansas" clause.
I'm not sure i rate this particular article.
They seem to sort of hint at the importance of power and energy efficiency
But why did they then "ask about TDP" ? Surely they they need to know the actual input power(or energy) to achieve the benchmark, not TDP which is itself a wierd thing for chips that self regulate temperature by throttling.
I'm not inclined to pay attention to this journo.
Bilbo Bagshot : I used to know this guy, Minty. He had a dog who he'd train to attack rich people. He was into the whole class-war thing. He called the dog Gramsci after an Italian Marxist. Rumor has it, it could smell wealth from up to 20 feet. The thing is, it all backfired. Minty won 100 grand on a scratchcard and Gramsci bit his knees off.
Tim : That's terrible.
Bilbo Bagshot : Not really. He used the money to buy new knees.
