years ago while in England I was told that old money controls the world - assets & money from centuries ago that is held by the old establishment, privately so not on any stockmarket. These hidden people are the true movers & shakers - nice and clandestine but oh so powerful

What would you do about Economic Poverty?
If you were a global leader, how would you push the limits and conventions of business and technology, alone or in combination, to reduce or eliminate economic poverty?

I mean, is it really necessary? If we didn't have money, there wouldn't be any poor people or rich people.

Everyone would be equal and it would decrease greed, plus it would also decrease crime dramatically because many people won't have any reason to rob a bank or rob a house for example.
Plus, people could also just go to their local supermarket, get the food they need and go home.

We should work on a new system that's more fair besides money. It's not fair for the people who lost their cash or were born poor. It's just not fair that they can't have, medical care, decent food, a nice home etc etc. because they don't have the money to get it.

I think if there wasn't money, we would live in a more peaceful and healthy world, like I mentioned, less crime, less greed, less poverty, less sick and starving people.

What do you think?

US 'could be going bankrupt'
Edmund Conway, Economics Editor.
London Telegraph July 14, 2006.




The United States is heading for bankruptcy, according to an extraordinary paper published by one of the key members of the country's central bank.

A ballooning budget deficit and a pensions and welfare timebomb could send the economic superpower into insolvency, according to research by Professor Laurence Kotlikoff for the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis, a leading constituent of the US Federal Reserve.
