Many American families are doing a balancing act -- with no net. Source: Krypto It's no secret that the economy, right here, right now, is in crisis. Banks failing, homes foreclosed, food and gas prices rising. But there's another creeping problem that makes all of these crises even worse -- and that's the gradual eroding of corporate and social safety nets. The end result of this: we're just one crisis away from ruin. An unforeseen illness, job loss, or divorce, can wipe us out complete

By Harold Meyerson Washington Post Thursday, September 18, 2008; Page A21 At the risk of speaking ill of the dead, what good was Lehman Brothers, anyway?

by Dave Mindeman One thing about Michele Bachmann...she is persistent. Here is a quote from her Townhall Blog: The Democrats know this bill is seriously flawed, and it’s simply a political gimmick. They’re not really trying to address the issue, but rather trying to cover their backs during a tough election season.

Aptly named "Blogging to Unblock" as Dr Mahathir Mohamad only started blogging after he claimed to be blacked out by mainstream media – the book (in English and Bahasa Malaysia) is entirely made up of his postings. At 83, the former premier continued to display his wit and sharpness in the ensuing press conference in Putrajaya after the book launch. Commenting on the po

The stunning market downturn this week has revealed the breathtaking lack of Enterprise Risk Management in Banks, Brokers, and Washington. Let me be clear; Risk Taking is not the same as Risk Management. We've had 7 years of extraordinary risk taking in our mortgage markets, financial markets, tax policies, and war policies. No one, in Banking or Government, can say with any confidence what their risk profile is, calculate probability of loss, or forecast future exposures. This makes all c

Did I say that today's liquidity injection should at least get us through the weekend? Well, by "us", clearly I didn't mean "Morgan Stanley".
