Analýzy a trendy

A general theme is a boring
theme. A personal theme is
funny. That is my explanati
on of the mystery called yel
low press (the printed paper
one, not a wide street :)).
So I will start with a personal
viewpoint. I pawned Jano. Sort of it
is said. I lent him money. Jano is my
important client, from some point
of view he is fundamental for our
company. Some things did not succeeded to him and he was temporarily short of money. He had brilliant periods in past and so I was
pleased to lend him. An investment
to a future cooperation. Time was
passing, I was hearing about Jano
that he is not successful and I started to be afraid about my money.
The time of repaying a lone was approaching and Jano was not reporting. I was busy and I did not hurry
him too. And here is one other person, an acquaintance Mirka. Mirka
liked Jano. We have known with
Mirka for a long time, we met and
chatted now and then, I met her
also at that time and actually I did
not even know why I complained
to her that I was afraid if Jano will
give me the money back. She stayed mazed. I had a feeling that I was
pulling down her idea which she
liked. The day of repaying a loan
came, what I even did not know at
that moment, and my phone rang.
Jano was calling. I had a flash that
he did not have and I will lose my
money. There was Jano’s voice on
phone: „Hi, I transfered the money the day before yesterday, you
should have them on your account,
I just phone you to say thank you“.
I can tell you, I had the feeling of
transgression, I should not doubt
and in general to do precipitate
conclusions.
Analyses and trends
Burn at the stake,
burn at the stake!
And now the boring themes. It
is a year 2008 and economic world
is over an abyss.
It is said about system crash,
about dominoes effect, anarchy in
streets. The markets are falling rapidly and it does not have an end.
Somebody should intervene and
help. That somebody is of course
an American taxpayer - he will take
out hundreds of millions for everybody who has problems. And he is
strong and rich enough to escalate
his possible fatal problem to a mass
dominoes effect with a political dimension. The congress and tribunal
are at one, we are the last boundary,
we can not go further. A boundary
between an anarchy and civilization,
we have to act. Dear sirs, I can not
evaluate, I have a right for opinion
and I do not think that this is a good
solution, but it happened.
700 billions USD for bank sector
(Troubled Asset Relief Program), 187
billions USD for Fannie Mae annd
Freddie Mac, 85 billions of doll rs
a
for AIG, „smaller amount“ for GM
(33 billions, shocking much). Costs
for foreign bases of the USA in Okinawa, Europe and in Near East are
not even one third yearly and it is
concerned primary American interests. It is so much that see it as
a common consumer is actually absurd. Well, it concerns more than
a car for every American family or
a tablet for every earthman (so also
for those from Botswana as for those from Prešov :)). Eventually, we
could overbridge the Bering Strait or
dam up the Gibraltar from that. It is
really very much money.
Vox populi
So whopper, so much money,
it is reprehensible, who are we going to burn at the stake? This can
not stay as it is, this can not repeat.
Let’s forbid it to them, limit their salaries, tax them…put them in hold
would be the best. So pity, so evil. It
will not go over so easy…
Facts
TAPR repayed in extenso, taxpayer earned. Fannie Mae and Freddie
Mac - partly repayed. Fannie Mae repayed 105 billion USD from the whole help of 117,1 billions USD, Freddie Mac repayed 41,4 billion dollars
of 71 billions. GM, part of actions is
held by government of the USA and
Canada, the loan is partly repayed.
GM invests hundreds of millions to
the assembly plants in Kansas and
Detroit, the reason is keeping of
jobs. AIG repayed. On 14th of December 2012 the Department of the
Exchequer in the USA sold its last
share in AIG. In consequence of these sales the government in t
