Sir Evelyn de Rothschild on CNBC Dec 10, 2008

British banking giant blames all kind of people for the Global financial crisis

Group of 20 meeting

Behave correctly

Supervision

We have to think about the future, the next generation and generation after that.

Banks used extreme leverage without understanding it

There are a lot of people that have lost all their savings who are going to be faced with a terrible problem of feeding their families and dealing with the problems of day to day living. I think that is where the problem is going to be the greatest.

Global Financial Overhaul

If your very safety conscious you hang on to your gold bars.

Around the world each country has it’s own problems. There are those countries that have been hit with inflation and they have to control it. There are those countries which have a problem with the work force. You have got to look at each one.

In the UK unfortunately at the moment we are getting more people out of work. Unemployment is increasing. We are going to have to find ways to help those that are less well off. We have the housing problem like yourself. Obviously we are a smaller economy. It’s going to be very difficult to get people to reinvest. Because money is going to be short.

8:46
What we have had to the last 10-15 years is unlimited attitude. We can make money. We can do anything we like. We just have tons of time to do what we want without regarding the regulation or regarding the basics of how you run your business.

9:01
Evil, good to have you on the program. Thanks so much.

There was also something mentioned in the New York Times that it was actually $8.8 trillion dollars in spending, but had later changed the amount on their offical site because of the outrage. There is swarms of these blogs everywhere linking to the image onto the New York Times showing the huge chart of the spending, but was later changed:

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2009/02/04/business/20090205-bailout-totals-graphic.html

http://yglesias.thinkprogress.org/archives/2009/02/350_billion_not_25_trillion.php

I’m looking more into it and it seems really real to me. I’m trying to find the original chart and it might be very difficult to find it.

“The New York Times (as well as Bloomberg) estimates that the US government has committed $8.8 trillion (some 68% of the US GDP) and has already spent some $2 trillion on the problem. Yet economists like James Gailbraith and Nouriel Roubini claim that much more is needed. Our question to Mssrs Gailbraith and Roubini is, before you insist that more government money is needed, come up with a suggestion as to how in the world the US will be able to pay for this.”

“# 2/04/09: The New York Times updated its bailout figures on 2/4/2009; see their helpful graphic of the funds

# 2/20/09: Ethisphere has created a TARP Index Fund to monitor how the TARP investment is performing. So far it has lost over 50% of its value since the 9/1/08 investment.

# 2/24/09: The latest bailout figures come from Bloomberg reporter Bob Ivry”

“Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) — The following table details how the U.S. government has pledged more than $11.6 trillion on behalf of American taxpayers over the past 19 months, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Changes from the previous table, published Feb. 9, include a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve has new lending commitments totaling $1.8 trillion. It expanded the Term et-Backed Lending Facility, or TALF, by $800 billion to $1 trillion and announced a $1 trillion Public-Private Investment Fund to buy troubled ets from banks.”
- http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aZchK__XUF84

So, the spending could get in between $8.8 trillion to as much as $20 trillion.

G20 battles to stem global economic crisis

The G20 meet is of prime importance for Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to send back home the right message at a time when he has his own political game to play especially with the upcoming elections early next year. Each economy wants an answer to take back home to its own nations to say yes we are working to prevent job losses that will prevent dip in exports and keep the economy back on tracks. As the stock markets swivel wildly on growing economic fears, hopes are high that the summit would result in size and shape of the bailout for the struggling economies. India must ensure that the US does not become in any way protectionist during a slowdown, especially so after the export numbers in India slumped by 15 per cent for the first time in several months. More over, India should pitch for IMF and the World Bank support even though it is not in the ‘eye of the storm.’ We remain hopeful that the G20 leaders would agree on coordinated economic stimulus package to help prevent world plunging into recession.

Pentagon scale back in defence budgets

A senior Pentagon advisory group, in a series of bluntly worded briefings, is warning President-elect Barack Obama that the Defense Department’s current budget is “not sustainable,” and he must scale back or eliminate some of the military’s most prized weapons programs.Pentagon insiders and defense budget specialists say the Pentagon has been on a largely unchecked spending spree since 2001 that will prove politically difficult to curtail but nevertheless must be reined in.

Jordan amends law to ban public smoking

After the law was amended to prevent smoking in all the public and private institutions the Jordanian minister of health minister Dr. Salah Mawajdeh had a meting with last Wednesday with owners of shopping malls in Jordan to finally take the step and ban smoking inside malls as part of the new smoking ban campaign. The meeting requested the mall owners to designate special smoking areas in their establishments in order to protect the non smoking public from becoming passive smokers. Dr. Mawajdeh added that fines would soon be imposed on anyone who breaks the new law. If taken seriously the smoking ban may work in most of public places which will definitely have a hard time succeeding gin restaurants and cafes Argeelah is an essential part of menu in these places.

Thriving at the cost of ailing public

Raising the price of mosquito repellants is yet another instance of commercial interest thriving at the cost of the population’s health. Instead of producing the prices for helping the people coping with the epidemic of dengue fever companies are taking advantage of the threat and making money in a deplorable way. It is important that the government of Pakistan takes special notice of the situation and strict measures against commercial manufacturers who have increased the price of the mosquito repellants products without proper justification.
