You are all potential terrorists. It matters not that you live in Britain, the United States, Australia or the Middle East. Citizenship is effectively abolished. Turn on your computer and the US Department of Homeland Security’s National Operations Center may monitor whether you are typing not merely "al-Qaeda", but "exercise", "drill", "wave", "initiative" and "organisation": all proscribed words. The British government’s announcement that it intends to spy on every email and phone call is old hat. The satellite vacuum cleaner known as Echelon has been doing this for years. What has changed is that a state of permanent war has been launched by the United States and a police state is consuming western democracy. | |

This would be funny if it weren’t so troubling. Health reform law to yield $1.3 billion in insurance rebates McClatchy. Lambert: “A pathetically low number.” Urban revolution is coming Salon (May S) Incredible Shrinking Country Ross Douthat, New York Times. OMG, more American self-congratulation. A diss of Japan, when it has managed 20 years of a terrible economy with far more grace than America has mustered 5 years into a lost decade. He blames Japan’s low birth rate on its lack of religion and “traditionalism”. So how does he explain an even lower birth rate in Italy? Or the comparatively high birth rate in equally irreligious Sweden?. Per him, it’s that Swedes are cool with out of wedlock births. No, there is a simpler reason in Japan. Being a wife/mother sucks (by contrast, those Swedish men are big on sharing homekeeping duties). He’s pointing to the wrong sort of traditionalism: it’s not about legal relations, it’s gender roles. And the other issue he ignores is immigration. Demographers in the US in 1990 also predicted a falling population for the US, but immigration, particularly of Hispanics, which have higher birth rates than other groups, changed the trend. The Japanese, by contrast, are the most xenophobic population on the planet. Is Wall Street, dissed by U.S., moving to China?

George Washington Homeless families found living in storage units KSl (Lambert) David And Société Générale Wolf Richter (Chuck L) Complaint | Boyd County v MERS – 14 Kentucky Counties Sue Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems 4ClosureFraud Telling Strength From Weakness Gretchen Morgenson, New York Times. This is a nice theory, but you will never get adequate disclosure from big dealer banks. What do you need to have to assess their risks? Their trading positions in pretty close to real time. That is also their most competitively sensitive information, and no way will they disclose that. Only bards do well in markets MacroBusiness Why There Are No Bosses At Valve BusinessWeek (Lambert). This is totally cool. I had thought the limits to “no/weak structure” was 150 people, since that is apparently the most who can know each other on a personal basis. This suggests you can go a bit bigger than that. Antidote du jour: |
