Do you ever wonder, the western press was quick to brand debt trouble faced by Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia in 1997 as “Asian contagion” as if it were akin to a contagious disease, has avoided using the same term to refer to identical troubles in Europe? This European crisis is now often referred to as […]

“The president’s failure to demand a reckoning from the moneyed interests who brought the economy down has cursed his first term, and could prevent a second.” This is a good article and a must read. It reflects most of my thinking on Obama’s presidency. What haunts the Obama administration is what still haunts the country: […]

I said somethings about TORi’s five-year journey in the following handwritten notes. పై నోట్ లో చెప్పడం మర్చిపోయిన విషయాలు – టోరి అనేది ప్రపంచ వ్యాప్తంగా వున్న తెలుగు వారికి ఒక పరిచయ వేదిక, పక్కింటి పిన్ని గారు, సరసనే ఉన్న సుదూర నేస్తం కావాలన్న కాంక్ష, RJ కావాలన్న తృష్ణ ఉన్న వారికి ఆ కలలు పండిచాలన్న కోరిక.. ఇవి ఫలించాయి.

Says Barry: Ahhh, the Greeks! Long considered the cradle of Western civilization, Greece is the birthplace of democracy, the founders of Western philosophical thought. The Greeks invented the Olympic Games, literature, political science, and too numerous too enumerate scientific and mathematical principles. The first coin was minted there, as was the university education, and the […]
Predictions of crashes have little credibility with me. However, this one has some credibility. Zero-Hedge’s Tyler Durden (not his real name) thinks that a flash-crash of sorts could happen on Wall Street today or this week. He claims that yesterday’s bizarre options trades (honestly, I only understood some of what he was saying) by HFT […]
Once again, the bankster cartel wins. The Greek Parliament just voted for more austerity measures. Don’t get me wrong, austerity is a good thing. It should be done. But not at gunpoint and threats that are solely aimed at saving the way of life for the bankster cartel. The only thing this will do is […]
I began writing this piece In February 2011, during the revolution in Egypt. Everybody who is following the current turmoil in Greece or who had even peripherally followed the recent events in Egypt knows that these are nothing short of extraordinary days. Not just Egypt and Greece, there were more revolutions in 2011 (e.g. Tunisia, […]
This via Zero-Hedge With just days left until the crucial vote on passing the Greek mid-term austerity package, the assured destruction rhetoric used by the Greek status quo has hit fever pitch. Just to make sure the message is not lost on the broader population that Europe’s banks will not admit defeat in a vote […]
The caption on an official T-shirt to be printed by Ireland, “Ireland is Not Greece, Portugal” says it all. I for one confirm a rumor as true when it is officially denied. Thanks to Zero Hedge.. this is definitely “The Onion” material.
