If the FT says slash, it must mean the FED will slash numbers for growth.

How will any central bank, even china, rationalize the buying the bonds (future payability) of a country with an essentially negative GDP?

De-growth, beaches!

I've just seen the deflation numbers forecast for the EU states for 2011.

-3.7%!!

The real storm still needs to happen!

A negative CPI will have disastrous implications for government finances which are already overstreched to the maximum for the EU.

2011 will be a very, very very bad year for the stockmarkets.

Also the new bank rules that will go into effect on 1 jan. 2011 about consumer credit will be very negative for retail sales. The new rules say nobody may go negative on their credit and debit card for more then 30 days! After that they need to go to + on their card for at least 2 days.

 

Better start going cash I think.

"U.S. security rethinking airline screening"

So the TSA is rethinking "Either you submit to a naked photo of yourself, or we fondle your genitals".  By the time that arrogant fool Pistolero gets around to amending the policy, the airline sector will all be back in Chapter 11.

Up yours sideways, Pistolero.  We don't take orders from fat, ugly degenerate fascisti like Napolituna.

Many here on ZH think there is a plan to control thru economic and gov policy to implement a one world currency then gov...

control of travel is a basic component of the control needed to move toward NWO.

Much like health care reform in USA, where the congress exempts out from the plan for the people (much as they have private retirement vs Social sec for the rest) the elite will bypass be exempt from this fascist travel regime.

Dark days ahead if this globalism prevails.

ORI, try out these new words and descriptions I have been working on:

destability, hyperdisinflation/ary, dedisinflation/ary, D-GDP, N-GDP, hyperausterity, deausterity.

 

Cheers

If enough devious minds on ZH got together, we could create a double speak dictionary.

CNBC propaganda today:

screenings of some sort are a fact of life. So, which would you choose? the Scan or the Pat-Down?

their poll today: http://www.cnbc.com/id/40278824

recognizing propaganda:

Either/or fallacy: This technique is also called "black-and-white thinking" because only two choices are given. You are either for something or against it; there is no middle ground or shades of gray.

Lets just go all the way, everyone is nude.  All the passengers, screeners, flight attendants, and pilots.  Everyone gets naked and flies the friendly skys!  Might also encourage people to really get in shape for their vacation, shouldn't need to many grope downs then.  If there is going to be naked body scanners, why pay for what nature can provide?

3rd way: boycott air travel entirely...they'll get the message soon enough. Americans would never let safety get in the way of profit for very long.

I would love to be in the room when the (bankrupt) France begs Germany not to go off on their own with the new Deutchmark, but oooh pleeeze take them along as well.

We I'm sure the German politicians have no desire to leave.  Sure the people hate it, but since when has the will of the people ever mattered in a "democracy"?  So if that does happen more likely it will be Merkel and Sarkozy in a an embrace crying into each others shoulders.
