Antonio, The economic reports I read today take pains to point out that India and China had the biggest and most vibrant economies in the world from the time of Christ to around 200 years ago. With the economies of both these countries being reverted to the hands of native entrepreneurs, western economist have no doubt that both countries will regain their economic superiority this century. Some predict even within the next two decades. Sitting here in Canada, the other delight is to watch countries like the US, Germany and France print money and use it to prop up failed industries, all in the name of creating employment for their residents. This strategy of state sponsored employment is what led to the death of innovation and, ultimately, failed economies. The BRIC countries are already pushing for a monetary system that is not dependant on the whims of countries with failed monetary and banking systems. The BRIC countries know that when the US is forced to devalue its currency, it will effectively transfer the worlds wealth to itself as foreigners are now the main holders of US debt. Last week, the UN called for a new world reserve currency. We do live in interesting times. Mervyn1650Lobo __________________________________________________________________ Be smarter than spam.
