The recovery might not deliver David Cameron a majority in 2015. Here's why - Telegraph

Its a false economy that creates more problems than it solves. Wrong instruments were / are being used. Policy makers need refresher course in basics.

Are we in the third-biggest stock bubble in US history? - - MSN Money

Easily, we are in a very very vulnerable spot in the history of share values. Overheating of property values in the UK could auger a turning point in the speculation cycle. This is not anything new to economic historians, but policy makers have boxed themselves in with limited actions to avoid sudden off the wall correction, triggered for example by a major war or natural disaster. 

Typically there are two bubbles in the stories of bursting stock markets and implimentation of inappropriTe policies. Have a look at the Thailand economy in 1997-2000. 

We are probably due for the second correction even at a casual observation. If the Fed and the BofE errs once they can easily err twice.

Tim Worstall gets it wrong again in his piece on A Seriously Horrible Column From Paul Krugman On Corporate Tax Inversions

Ah dear!

I guess that's an economics program that Tim missed on the way to being a columnist.

What he needs to focus on are the types of firms involved for which Krugman us absolutely correct. I myself am dismayed by Boots UK. What a con group they have become?

Renowned Canadian Historian Thinks Putin is Behaving Just Like Hitler

Just as in times past, within a population of people some individuals have developed a complex, a political pyscho-pathology, V Putin of the Russian Federation has followed. He is popular in Russia because he markets his popularity, no other reason. He has advantages few Russians possess, yet chooses to follow a path of self deception in which his country people suffer, clang, clang. The chains are there in the minds of most Russians. A dictator knows his own kind and the Syrian dictator comes to mind. Together, they will change the map of their communities so that future generations will remove all trace of respect for their despicable lives. The statues built in their honour will be as dust.


I am so pleased that Don has followed the lead of Prince Charles in condemnation of what Putin is doing. In the end, many will lose their earthly lives removing the Putin menace from earth, but it will happen. The war criminal must go, and he will.


Wooh

Ambassador of the Russian Federation to Canada

Dear Dr. Mamedov:

The recent events in the Ukraine have once again reminded us that Vladimir Putin is the key figure in the orchestration of events that have destabilized the international community and brought about an international catastrophe.  His activities cannot but help remind us of Adolf Hitler who did the same several decades earlier.

 

Like Hitler before him, Mr. Putin meddles in the internal affairs of adjacent nations to achievehis geo-political objectives.

 

Like Hitler, he has designs on the territorial integrity of neighbouring states.

 

Like Hitler, he supports insurgents in territories adjacent to him to promote instability.

 

Like Hitler, he encourages nationals to stir up trouble and destabilize democratic governments.

 

Like Hitler, he uses surrogates to achieve territorial expansion.

 

Like Hitler, he arms insurgents that promote his political objectives.

 

Like Hitler, he lies regarding his aims and objectives.

 

Like Hitler, he controls the national media that serves as his apologist.

 

Like Hitler, he ignores the pleas of the international community.

 

Like Hitler, he condones international incidents that contribute to instability.

 

Like Hitler, he engages in brinkmanship and risks war.

 

Like Hitler, he does not seem to care how much grief he causes families or nations.

 

And finally like Hitler, Mr. Putin who has considerable power and opportunity to do good has chosen instead to be a menace to the world community.

 

Sincerely,

 

Donald M. Santor

YOU HAVE REACHED WOOH'S STREAM
The Internet User's Best Kept Secret

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!
