On the World Entering a new Economic Hell
This situation is much worse than that of the 1930's.
It happened with many more Chicago PhDs looking on! It required many Harvard and MIT PhDs to create the financing technologies and software. It will require more than Princeton or Cambridge and Oxford PhDs to sort out.
In fact, one has to recognize that there is no solution in the conventional sense.
We are heading deeper and deeper into the mire of desperation at a time when innovation is racing faster and faster. It's a new monetary world that cannot be met with anything we have tried before.
Our only real hope is massive cooperation which is nowhere to be found. Once the trap was sprung, we cannot return to what we knew.
We now enter economic equations that require balancing by sacrifice.
It's no good to riot, but those that have will need to share and the safer they will be the sooner that is realized!
There is nothing special about America that prevents the contagion of desperate measures.

Penny Auction Websites are a Lot of Work, with Avalanche and Tipping points to understand?
My thumbs down except for the true addicts!
Most buyers don't have the time and skills needed to get the bargains seemingly offered on penny auction websites.
First you buy bids.
A single bid can cost over fifty cents.
One bid counts for one cent on the price the penny auction website price. That's possibly why they are called penny auctions and not because you can really buy stuff for pennies. The revenue going to the seller is a big multiple of the penny price and probably over 50 times.
So you have to do some math and what seems cheap may be 50 times or more as expensive. But you are not the only one placing bids and really odd things can happen so have your psychology text next to you. Bystander effects occur when others stand by waiting for you to exhaust your 'little' pile of bids. Some people will have major piles.
After your bid you wait while others get a chance to bid, even at the closing se one's when all the fun begins. You try to minimize your number of bids, but what if the bidding ends as the number of bidders visible increases exponentially. Some lucky guy wins by surprise to everyone who thought the game was unending!
It's a perverse bystander psychology that operates to run the numbers higher and higher until the inevitable point when people give up, not because they are far from winning, but because they are extremely close. This is the tipping point to the end of the contest!
The sites show you the math and they give you an out which is to just pay their asking price for your item and credit your bids at the sum of the cost price of the bids.
If you want to bid for something pricey like a camera or iPad, you will find it is very hard work to get it.
You may make a small number if bids, but you will probably have acquired skills with tedious effort akin to playing a complex computer game!
All the warnings needed are posted, but it's not for those that are not used to doing probability math!
Try a hypergeometric statistical theorem and add in bystander psychology along with the difficult mathematics of avalanches and you might win consistently.

It's An Insurrection Not a Riot!
What do you think when you hear the explanation expressed so very clearly on YuTube? We may be at an historical moment and the consequences as grave as the French revolution of 1798. The problem may be poor political understanding of history.
Galbraith explained the moment and you will understand. Churchill and Keynes understood the moment. To understand, you need to have sought deeper than the conventional truth! The stress poor people are experiencing is beyond their ability to cope. We are forcing people into a mold that they are not capable of sharing.
It is the seeds of war that we are sowing so efficiently by not taking notice. We are so interconnected that it is unbelievable the shared sorrow we may be forced to experience.
History repeats within a new frame and we are experiencing a history repeating, but the violence could be unbelievable and we could be just as unprepared as before the first great war?
Prepare to be shocked by the truth!

The fault rests in the overloading of our instinctive investment inclinations to the neglect of a broad range of things we should be investing in. We watch people starve, yet stay safe as bystanders.

The Economics of Budgetary Finance
I give you a new conservative economics, for free. Just read!
1. A Lesson in linkages between Economic Growth and Balance Sheet Management
While it's important to balance budgets and eliminate debt to make way for growth, it's possible for well meaning writers to totally misunderstand economics. The problem is that if one is concerned about the numbers of budgets and individual debts, one would worry about how to get them in balance. The point of getting macro economic balance is that it may aid in getting microeconomic balance. What if the achievement of macroeconomic balance simply puts off the day of microeconomic balance?
It's important for economic growth and development to maximize what's good for effective balance sheet management over the long term for the greatest number if households and businesses, not just a lucky few with economies of scale.
It is important to maximize balanced budgets generally if conservative capitalism is to survive and be sustainable. The other direction is straight towards dictatorial socialism based on economies of scale, or the Monsanto effect on growth and income distribution.
2. Purposeful Design of Policy to Maximize Sustainable Budgetary Balance
The real issue is whether a given economic policy can maximize the number of households and businesses that are in sustainable balance. Achieving macro economic balance does not achieve provide an automatic strategy to maximize sustainable economic balance in numerical terms. For that very reason economies, such as that of the United States grow to favor only those entities that can achieve economies of scale leaving behind the average household and business.
3. Sustainability bridges scale and distribution.
To have maximum economy growth and development one needs to maximize participation, cooperation and competition simultaneously. The distribution of positive budgetary balance needs to be achieved at small, average and large scales. It's not good enough for large scale operations to succeed while small one's falter. It's desirable to optimize the distribution of budgets achieving balance over the longer term. This means households of all varieties need to achieve balance.
4. The Arts, Sciences and Education within Businesses and Households need to be optimized
We can achieve faster rates of growth through education, but those educated need to be able to achieve balanced budgets.
Good health promotes growth and helps to maximize the period over which budgets of all kinds may be balanced!
Enough said for now!
