Bailout
29 Setembro, 2008
Vale a pena assistir em directo ao apressado debate sobre o «plano de salvação do sistema financeiro» e ver como tantos congressitas estão simplesmente furiosos. E contra. No Washington Post.

Curiosamente, estão Congressistas “Conservatives Republican” e “Liberal Democrats”.

Fim do “neo”liberalismo: Sweden Promoting the tax cut plan.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122264826575484095.html?mod=todays_us_opinion
“The corporate tax is one of the taxes which large companies really study when they plan to set up business somewhere,” says Jan Björklund, leader of the country’s Liberal Party, in promoting the tax cut plan. The corporate tax reduction will bring the Swedish rate down to 26.3% from 28%, continuing its fall from a high of 57% in 1987. This means that Swedes will soon have a corporate tax rate one-third lower than the U.S. average of 39.5% (the 35% federal rate plus the state average).
Three years ago Sweden eliminated its inheritance tax. The U.S. death tax rate is still 45%. John McCain cited Ireland’s low rate in his Friday debate with Barack Obama, who continues to insist that U.S. business is undertaxed.
Daqui a 10 anos os dois únicos sítios socialistas serão Portugal e os EUA…

Yes or No?
Com a bolsa em queda creio que vão dizer Yes.
GostarGostar
espero bem que digam No…

Um dos principais está a dizer que se eles não votarem sim, os amigos, os vizinhos vão sofrer e os reformados vão ficar com as pensões a zero.
Suspeito que existe um grave problema com as pensões dos americanos.

Passou.

Pelo contrário, não passou. 205 votaram “YES” e 228 votaram “NO”. Falta apenas um voto.

Passou?
Parece que foi chumbada pelos republicanos.

Tem razão.

Só na America é que a história não está determinada á partida. Uma grande parte do resto do mundo são simulacros de democracia excepto quando há Referendos que chateiam certas elites.

Entretanto a China provando que o Neoliberalismo está morto introduz o terrível Short Selling:
China Allows Short Sales, Margin Loans to Help Market (Update2)
By Zhao Yidi and Zhang Shidong
Sept. 26 (Bloomberg) — China’s cabinet agreed to let investors buy shares on credit and sell borrowed stock to help develop Asia’s second-largest market after prices and trading volumes slumped, an official familiar with the plan said.
The State Council signed off on a China Securities Regulatory Commission plan submitted this month to allow margin lending and short selling, said the official, who declined to be identified as he isn’t authorized to speak on the issue.
China’s action contrasts with regulators in the U.S., Europe and Australia that have banned short selling in the past week to shore up financial shares battered by the global credit squeeze. China’s government is betting the changes will boost trading without spurring further declines after state share buybacks helped the CSI 300 Index rebound from a two-year low.
“It’s quite positive for the market and will help attract fresh capital into equities,” said Wu Kan, a fund manager in Shanghai at Dazhong Insurance Co., which oversees the equivalent of $285 million. “Given the current level the index is standing at now, I do think some investors will buy low through margin trading so as not to miss the boat.”
In short sales, investors sell stock they don’t own, betting they will be able to buy it back at a lower price and profit from the difference. They borrow money to buy stocks in margin trading if they expect share prices will rise.
The Chinese government carefully timed the move to limit the impact on the market’s stability, said the official.
China has scrapped the tax on stock purchases and relaxed company buyback rules to help support the world’s second-worst performing stock market this year.

Bailout is dead.
Bailout plan rejected
House leaders scramble for support for controversial Wall Street plan.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — The fate of a controversial $700 billion financial bailout plan was in doubt Monday as a House vote turned against it.
The next steps were not immediately clear but supporters were scrambling to put it up for another vote.
What was supposed to be a 15-minute vote stretched past the half-hour mark as leadership scrambled for support. Investors who had been counting on the rescue plan sent the Dow Jones industrial average down as much as 700 points while watching the measure come up short of the necessary support, before rebounding slightly. The key stock reading was down more than 500 points.
The measure needs 218 votes for passage. Democrats voted 141 to 94 in favor of the plan, while Republicans voted 65 to 133 against. That left the measure with 206 votes for and 227 against.
