Economia real e crise financeira

Plano de salvamento da Qimonda não está garantido
O plano de salvamento da Qimonda “não está garantido, e vai ser preciso trabalhar muito para estar” advertiu o governador do Estado federado da Saxónia, Stanislav Tillich, em declarações hoje ao jornal Saechsischer Zeitung, de Dresden.
Dizem as más linguas que para já os alemães da saxónia preferiram gastar umas massas para aguentar a chafarica por ser menos do que teriam apagar de indemnização aos trabalhadores alemães. Entretanto a caixa vai ajudando os germânicos até descambar definitivamente. A caixa vai ser o primeiro banco a primeira a cair. Abram os olhos portugas. Vocês andam nisto há oitocentos anos e estão cada vez mais lorpas.

Porque os números oficiais têm sido aldrabados ajustados.

Aqui em portugal concentram-se a “dar uns retoques” no valor do défice. Depois quando muda o governo ficamos a saber o valor real obtido pelo governo anterior. E depois sobem os impostos. Não tem grande ciência, é aldrabice canalhice básica.

“As people have their expectations changed radically, you can have protests come out of nowhere,” even in developed countries, Bremmer said.

‘Maybe Axes’

Riots in Greece this month, sparked by the police shooting of a teenager, became tinged with economic dissension. A group of Kuwaiti equity traders marched on the emir’s office in October to demand the closing of the stock exchange to stem losses. Even in U.S. cities, civil disorder is “conceivable” if unemployment rises above 10 percent from November’s 6.7 percent, Bremmer says.

Hauksdottir, the owner of a Reykjavik witchcraft shop, says over a cup of thyme and juniper tea that only civil disobedience can force banks to stop collecting debts that people can’t pay.

“We’ll use our voices, and then if we have to we’ll use our hands, and maybe axes,” Hauksdottir says.

At Reykjavik’s half-built concert hall, a symbol of the good times that juts from the harbor toward the North Pole, the visitor center is closed to visitors. The principal owner, Landsbanki Islands hf, failed in October. Marketing director Thorhallur Vilhjalmsson says he’s making ends meet on severance pay.

“Iceland right now is like Chernobyl after the blast,” Vilhjalmsson says. “It looks normal, but there’s radiation.”

Kicking Down Doors

The protests may escalate as bills come due and severance pay runs out for those who lost jobs at the three biggest lenders, including Landsbanki, the second-largest, says Stefan Palsson, a historian. He once led the Campaign Against Militarism, opposing NATO bases in the 1960s.

He said he’s surprised ordinary people are backing activists once considered “hooligans.” There was public outrage three years ago when environmentalists poured yogurt over aluminum representatives to protest a new plant.

“Now you have protesters kicking down doors at police stations, and respectable elderly people saying ‘Well, they’re young and full of enthusiasm, and anyway, they’re right!’” he said.

Inflation rose to 18.1 percent this month, and the International Monetary Fund predicts that Iceland’s economy will shrink 9.6 percent next year. The Washington-based global lender of last resort put together a rescue package for the country worth as much as $5.3 billion last month.

Ficamos a saber que o país até crescia mais que a América e se calhar afinal nem estamos na cauda de coisa nenhuma. Se calhar os outros é que são mais inspirados a fazer as contas.
