But I don't think John regards it as an insult,
Michael, and at any rate, he can give as well as he
can take. I was making a larger point about the
totalitarian mentality. I have already received some
more perceptive responses than yours, that deserve
serious replies, as in the following:
-
The first time I ever saw a politician I was about 4,
and there was this awkward cut of a fellow, badly
dressed and with his crossbargate bike slung against
the stonework below him, standing on the bridge
before our brewery pond. He was shouting two slogans.
"Monetary reform" and "Shoot the Odlums" - the Odlums
being the local millers. I mention this is the
context of fascism. This chap, who eventually retired
with a Papal knighthood and as Father of the Irish
Parliament, was a leftover from the Blueshirts, the
pre war Irish proto fascist party.
But to a slightly more serious note. This level of
monetary debate is slightly beyond my expertise,
despite the fact that when I did work in a bank and
was responsible for the central bank returns and was,
eventually a reporter reporting on the BIS and WB.
(That doesn't mean you have to know anything about
CB's but it helps.) The basic point I noticed is that
you are talking about stopping flows of money, as
though that was a decision that could be taken on an
arbitrary basis and without any consequences. The
flows to Wall Street are dividends and fees, mostly
on behalf of clients for whom Wall St holds bonds and
shares. There is a relationship that underpins the
situation, that between the actual shareholder and
the company in which the shares are held.
Would this proposal lead to the confiscation of
dividends? And if that happened, where is the cash
to pay pensions to come from? Manufacturing money has
not to date been a solution to anything, and has
merely fuelled inflation, at least in the real world.
