I feel that corrupt people are more cooperative; have easy money to distribute, have knitted web of earning sons(dalal Or brokers).

Unorganised forces against corruption r not able to kill or reduce the corruption. Cases of corruption lingers for years & any one who is not corrupt again has to suffer for the delays.

Is it easy to live with corruption than without it?

As I was driving home from the office, I saw a minivan proudly displaying a bumper sticker that read: “Money Talks: Mine Says Goodbye.” I think a lot of people can relate to that sentiment.

Much of our living is spent acquiring and using money, which doesn’t last. The stock market crashes. Prices go up. Thieves steal others’ goods. Things wear out and break down, requiring the acquisition and expenditure of more money to replace what has been lost. The temporary nature of material wealth makes it a poor bargain in the search for security in an insecure world. Money is much better at saying goodbye than it is at sticking around.Any opinion guys and gals???

I understand you buy stock and then the corporation uses that to advance their business or whatever...and then returns whatever profits or lack thereof. What I don't understand is at the end of the year when they made profit/loss do they automatically pay you the money or do you have the option of keeping the stock and selling it at a later date?

At the same time ELEVEN MILLION CHILDREN DIE every YEAR in the WORLD from MALNUTRITION CAUSES. What will History say about that? - «We will never know because we will all be dead!»)

What is the alternative to capitalism based on continuous growth? Is this type of capitalism not destined to fail by its very nature, i.e. there are limited resources on the planet therefore growth must be finite....or do we change the currency of growth from tangible products to intangible e.g. information? Could that sustain the capitalist model?
So many questions.......so little time!

The UK has consistently high interest rates. Because business and other organisations use the rate of return on capital to determine investment decisions, this means that they require a fast pay-back for any money they invest - much more than the interest rate (in my experience a multiple of it).

The UK has persistently failed to invest in projects such as railway electrification that would improve the environment. For instance, electrification of the East Coast Railway Line was first mooted before 1923, but not completed until 1990. The UKs record in capital investment, reflected by its comparative economic decelin in the twentieth century, is much worse than other developed nations. Is this due to high interest rates?

If we are serious about global economy, should we fix interest rates at a nominal level and rgulate the economy by other means?

I am not wanting to make suggestions through this question. I genuinely want to know what people think.
