I think -1% overnight rate should definitely do it.

waiting for Yellen. the FED sets the pace of world rates. the ECB follows up, is reactive

last time we had a rate differential... well, it ended with the South Park "annnnd... it's gone!" sequel, courtesy of Corzine et al

when will they finally free Corzine from prison, I ask?

The transformation of global societies.  We are watching the morphing of soverign countries into a new type of state.  Ireland, Spain, France will go the same way.  The dictionary will need to be changed to meet this semantic need.

Notice how they cleverly toss in the ( School ) meme as to justify offering FREE home service, by cleverly adding the school word it makes it all better, so don't you dare say anything as you will be " One of those " who hates education. Funny thing is last I checked most schools are wired to the gills.

Subsidized utilities
Subsidized rent
Free food
Free phone
Free cash
And now Free internet....makes you feel all warm and fuzzy on your way to work this morning don't it...Who says America isn't the land of the free...

Is this not the Greek way of doing things?

Either subsidized, or free and at the end you become a slave; particularly Grece slave of the banks and the EU.

US will become the slaves of the Tel Aviv banks.
