/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is official now, i am no more attached with European Central Bank (ECB).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Partly relief but another half is telling "is this the right moves?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyhow, i am with the World Bank(WB) for next 3 years. will be based in Norway-Sweden. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i am back to my origin of interest "trust economics development" and it is nothing to do with trust-funds.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have I lost my faith on ECB lately? my answer is not yet, remember i've got promoted to WB last june,i've been doing job for both ECB and WB ever-since and now its has to come to the end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are several issues that i would like to share here, mostly from my technical analysis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are severe indicators on the movement of Euro and the policies in some EU countries that will lead to the destruction of Euro itself, much fears has been put on France.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like we fear what has happened in Greece,Ireland &amp; Portugal.&lt;br /&gt;French, Spanish, and Italian banks have run out of collateral and are now pledging real assets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next you will see a plans to restrict cash transactions over 1,000 euros (down from the current limit of 2,500 euros, or about $3,200).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and Swiss officials are preparing for the end of the euro with capital control measures. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So as i wrote here, Europe's CEOs are actively preparing for the end of the euro despite governmental reassurances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some, like German machinery maker GEA Group AG are limiting the maximum funds on deposit with any single bank. &lt;br /&gt;Others, like Grupo Gowex, are moving cash and deposits to Germany away from Spanish banks (and Grupo Gowex is a Spanish company based in Madrid, so this is especially telling).&lt;br /&gt;BMW plans to cut production by 30% while also tapping into central bank reserves, the company is already reducing its leasing portfolio to cope with the potential decrease in car values that would impact its borrowing capacity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, money managers the world over are selling their European bonds. This is driving prices lower and yields higher to the point where the cost of debt is now prohibitive (bond prices and yields move in opposite directions).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a result, new bank bond issuance may be down as much as 85% over the past two years, which further hobbles cash hungry European banks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for what all this means for our money, that's pretty clear - think SAFETY FIRST.&lt;br /&gt;Stick with what you have in place now and manage the risk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am personally hope that it will be better future if the government-people be able to work it out and be hand to hand helping each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are now in Havana, Cuba for treatment. I will resume my work February,next year onward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MYSELF- GHEEEE IM TURNED TO 34 OFFICIALLY.&lt;br /&gt;MERRY X'MAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HAPPY HOLIDAY.&lt;br /&gt;MAY GOD BLESSED YOU.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2065270932938384044-1847396419328253826?l=sufiansteve.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/feeds/1847396419328253826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2065270932938384044&amp;postID=1847396419328253826&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/1847396419328253826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/1847396419328253826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/2011/12/it-is-official-now.html' title='It is official now.'/><author><name>Suf n Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09817824200063497686</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='11' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/SievaWtrp3I/AAAAAAAAAA4/T77FYSJMG68/S220/me1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rQCBfh4KA0A/TvFwMLjHhXI/AAAAAAAABKw/Y0aLQ7771MA/s72-c/images.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065270932938384044.post-1600680954367289773</id><published>2011-12-14T23:23:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-14T23:27:50.407-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='2012'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holiday'/><title type='text'>Happy Holiday</title><content type='html'>Happy holiday to all you here!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good one, wish you folks Merry X'mas in advance and Happy new year!

I would love to watch thee leading their way to govern this government! Not from scandal, but with dignity and knowledge they posses and experience they learn from us, the great leader! (who-wanna-puke!)&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For me this is kinda Aristotle-Plato thingy! but I simple cut the philosophy part and being practical about it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's easy to look at the younger generation - with their high expectations and big demands - and scoff, Yes they have so much to learn, but they also have a lot to give.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After spending some time last week at the Next Generation of Government Summit by the social networking site ops! classified- and by the professional organization Young Government Leaders, I was left thinking how strong our government will be if we effectively harness the intelligence, creativity, drive and ethusiasm of this up-and-coming group of employees.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The fact is we need tofind ways to make young government leaders stay and grow in government, I have five ideas for retaining younger employees while grooming them to lead:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Focus on the firsts - these are important milestone for every employee, Make a checklist for each of these firsts&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;keep them inspired -keep that fire lit, not only with words of wisdom, but making sure they know exactly how their work fits in to your mission.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Tap their brains - Mark my bloody words, if you don't keep your younger employees challenged and on their intellectual toes, you will lose them. Asking them for new ideas, feedback and to engage in problem-solving will help everyone. They will be excited about their work, and I -(the bloody master) benefit from their fresh perspective and energy.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Show them the path to leadership -&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;Younger people today are restless and are not afraid to take risks and seek new opportunities. Help stem the turnover tide by showing them exactly how they can advance. If you can get them excited by the challenge of making it to the next level, you will keep them on board and they will work harder.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  &gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px; "&gt;Pair them up-  Always &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;Create a fulfilling experience for everyone by pairing interested, long -term employees with newbies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" &gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  &gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"&gt;By the time I am writing this, my hubby is getting better and he deserve my best interest for I am taking a month off from my jobs!

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Last two weeks ago i was assigned by ECB for special tasks! Going around the world and selling Bonds to bail out unprecedented debts crisis! huhuhhuh&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My first stop was Doha,Qatar. Meeting Middle East rich and famous is always a doom for me, Thee requests for meeting at night time and only TWO Eyes Meeting at his so call Mansion!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hence my previous working experience was with The Sheikh of Dub**, I have no problem to communicate in Arabic language! and my dear Hubby said&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Oh! these are reasons why "thee" send me for special task. lol! Hubby is not following me, for his cancer treatment is still on going and he insisted me to take this opportunity and take a little time out for a while and get a fresh air! Sounds crazy but I must admit, I do need that! and Dear Hubby need his own sweet time as well!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ok lets continue, So meeting the Bloody Middle East was held only during night time, so we have plenty of time to enjoy ourselves with desert cruise *i feel so like Sex and the City Theme* and shopping like a crazy person *yeah like one of the so call first lady from South East Asia Country!* awwwwwwwwwww bitch me darhling!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and we took a Jet to Beijing-Shanghai for another merry go around kinda trip, but we are wayyyyy too tired for shopping or planning to climb up the Great Wall of China! bloody hell, 2-3 of my staffs get stomach ache! and we have only few days before leaving to Tokyo!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Chinese hospitality is very top and above, being a vegetarian is not a difficult for me and being a Muslim so far is convenient both! I give A+ for China! for their generous hospitalities. ok ! my Mandarin is not bad, after all I am half Chinese. Thanks to my late mommy's.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Japanese in another hand was very stringent (as usual) and I must remember to be on time (not that I never been on time) and all the traditional rules and bla bla bla! talking about money is seem very easy to compare with either Chinese or Middle Eastern!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For now I am in Paris for finalizing how much money we have get through from sorta donation+bonds or whatever you want to call it! cant tell sorry! but worth the trip and we have not spend so much on accommodation and entertainment thou! heheheheh &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Our paper for Norway visa's has been approved and depending on my Dear Hubby recovery, we will go back home in May (after his treatment) and Continue my routine from Kristiansand-Brussels for money! gosh i have sign up 2 years contract with EU.. huhuhuh&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2065270932938384044-4055845789219970090?l=sufiansteve.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/feeds/4055845789219970090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2065270932938384044&amp;postID=4055845789219970090&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/4055845789219970090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/4055845789219970090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/2011/03/english-translation-for-my-previous.html' title='English Translation for my previous post'/><author><name>Suf n Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09817824200063497686</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='11' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/SievaWtrp3I/AAAAAAAAAA4/T77FYSJMG68/S220/me1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065270932938384044.post-498958657338799176</id><published>2011-03-01T03:22:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-01T03:54:56.753-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='saga begin'/><title type='text'>Sagaen Begynner</title><content type='html'>Mati lah Title entry dalam Bokmal Norwegian tapi....&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;entry dalam bahasa melayu! set set pengsan kejap! sebab memang teringin hendak menulis dalam bahasa melayu! walaupun BM masa A-Level cuma dapat cukup makan jer! bley&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Memandangkan international readers dah kurang kan - seronok aku kecuali laki mak yang boleh lah membaca dalam bahasa melayu! wah khelass ko maria!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mek ni tak de lain dok pusing2 jelajah dunia sambil minta minta derma bagai untuk Bank kesatuan tempat mek bekerja! bley&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ala menyundal ok pergi negara orang minta minta duit! yang paling lah mek tak boleh sekali masa di Doha. ya ampun tak kuasa nak meminta bagai dengan orang arab niih! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nasiblah mek saudara seagama, nampak sangat bank kesatuan tempat kerja mek itu sangat pandai dalam hal hal berkaitan sosial, budaya, adat resam, agama dan bahasa!

Too bad. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Another job offer came from my working visit to Singapore, high rank position, CED (Chief Executive Director), and i say NO, simple and easy, with no reasons whatsoever.

(more like today Governments)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="bodyText"&gt;I admit, we don’t look to movies for history  lessons.

Thanks  to these unsung heroes, many formerly abused or neglected children and  teens will safely reunite with their parents, be cared for by relatives,  or be adopted by loving families.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;But some  children in foster care are less fortunate.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most communities across the country are urgently seeking more everyday people to help these youth overcome their troubled childhoods and realize their full potential. No matter what their age, every young person in foster care benefits from a meaningful connection to a caring adult who becomes a supportive and lasting presence in his or her life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The fact sheet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Currently, 463,000 children in the United States are in foster  care because their own families are in crisis and unable to provide for  their essential well-being. Many children in care are unable to return  home safely because their parents lack access to services that could  help strengthen families&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The need&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;No matter their age, all youth in foster care need a meaningful  connection to at least one caring adult who becomes a supportive and  lasting presence in their lives. Without families or stable  relationships, too many of these formerly neglected and/or abused  children and teens will end up facing life’s challenges all alone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The consequences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Research shows that young people who age out of foster care are  far more likely than their peers in the general population to endure  homelessness, poverty, compromised health, insufficient education,  unemployment, incarceration, early pregnancy and parenthood.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The call for action.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;No matter how much time you have to give, you have the power to do  something positive that will CHANGE A LIFETIME for a young person in  foster care.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-VIyPAF6hI/AAAAAAAAA94/4tqbGs8ljp4/s1600/news-gay-daddies-top.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-VIyPAF6hI/AAAAAAAAA94/4tqbGs8ljp4/s320/news-gay-daddies-top.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468857350368913938" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2065270932938384044-595934809762217452?l=sufiansteve.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/feeds/595934809762217452/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2065270932938384044&amp;postID=595934809762217452&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/595934809762217452'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/595934809762217452'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/2010/05/may-is-national-foster-care.html' title='May is National Foster Care'/><author><name>Suf n Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09817824200063497686</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='11' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/SievaWtrp3I/AAAAAAAAAA4/T77FYSJMG68/S220/me1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-VFypfSG_I/AAAAAAAAA9w/gzRZnt-oM3E/s72-c/may+is+national+foster+day.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065270932938384044.post-9017164750764242323</id><published>2010-05-07T04:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-07T04:45:57.896-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='austerity'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='devaluation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Economic 101'/><title type='text'>How much would a Greek devaluation help?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P7iBGx3iI/AAAAAAAAA9Y/3P10ZcHiqFw/s1600/Greece_map.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 299px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P7iBGx3iI/AAAAAAAAA9Y/3P10ZcHiqFw/s320/Greece_map.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468490934388907554" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P7Mu0uL7I/AAAAAAAAA9Q/vo_glx2FTy0/s1600/ecb.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Many commentators now believe that Greece will end up  restructuring its debt — rather a harsh way for partial rejection or refusal. I agree.  But the reasoning seems to stop there, which is wrong. In effect, the  consensus that Greece will end up defaulting is probably &lt;em&gt;too  optimistic&lt;/em&gt;. I’m growing increasingly convinced that Greece will end  up leaving the euro, too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="entry-content"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P7326UMtI/AAAAAAAAA9g/-_1BaMCvHAs/s1600/6a00d8345eaeee69e20120a5b7fc72970b-800wi.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 183px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P7326UMtI/AAAAAAAAA9g/-_1BaMCvHAs/s320/6a00d8345eaeee69e20120a5b7fc72970b-800wi.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468491309609398994" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I’ve basically laid out the logic here: even with a debt restructuring, Greece will  be in deep trouble, forced to engage in severe austerity(&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;government spending&lt;/span&gt;) — and provoke a  deep slump — just to close the primary, non-interest deficit.(Gosh!)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The only thing that could reduce that need for austerity would be  something that helped the economy expand. This would reduce the economic pain; it would also increase  revenues, reducing the needed amount of fiscal austerity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;But the only route to economic expansion is higher exports — which  can only be achieved if Greek costs and prices fall sharply relative to  the rest of Europe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If Greece were a highly cohesive society with collective  wage-setting, a sort of Austria, it might be possible to do this  via a collectively agreed reduction in wages across the board –an  “&lt;a href="http://seekingalpha.com/article/178455-greece-needs-to-implement-a-significant-internal-devaluation"&gt;internal devaluation&lt;/a&gt;.” But as today’s grim events show, it isn’t.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P8vrYnrsI/AAAAAAAAA9o/RHURJ-8XyxQ/s1600/devaluation-of-dollar.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S-P8vrYnrsI/AAAAAAAAA9o/RHURJ-8XyxQ/s320/devaluation-of-dollar.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468492268587953858" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;The alternative is a devaluation — which means leaving the euro.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Any announcement of plans to leave the euro would, as &lt;a href="http://www.econ.berkeley.edu/%7Eeichengr/"&gt;Eichengreen&lt;/a&gt; my friend from  University of California, Berkeley points out, &lt;a href="http://www.voxeu.org/index.php?q=node/729"&gt;trigger  disastrous bank runs&lt;/a&gt;. By the same token, any suggestion by outside  players, like the &lt;a href="http://www.ecb.int/"&gt;ECB (European Central Bank)&lt;/a&gt;, that the option exists would amount to invoking a  speculative attack on Greek banks, and therefore can’t be made.

Anything short of  realistic, down-to-earth  practicable and doable approach is useless.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Enough of the grammar.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;So, how do you tell if your boy love is genuine?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Hey, wait.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;"&gt;Has he really told you he loves you?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;That is a good starting point.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Well, many boys think the man they're dating, their boyfriend, is in  love with them without  actually asking him. There have been cases when a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;boy tells a boy&lt;/span&gt; he  has been going out with for  months, "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;I didn't say I love you. I simply said I like you?&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;So the guy leaves and the boy is heart broken.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But wait a minute. Is there any &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;difference&lt;/span&gt; between  '&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;likeness&lt;/span&gt;' and &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt;? Is "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;I love you&lt;/span&gt;" the  same thing as "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;I like you&lt;/span&gt;"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Likeness is different from love.  &lt;p&gt;When a man likes you it means he enjoys being with you  because, perhaps, you have some  things &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;in common&lt;/span&gt; and he likes your carriage or approach to issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He likes the way you walk. He likes the way you smile. He likes the  way you deal with  people. He likes the fact that you're smart and intelligent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9r5Cn6nxNI/AAAAAAAAA8Q/Waa-7D5BS5A/s1600/img-thing.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9r5Cn6nxNI/AAAAAAAAA8Q/Waa-7D5BS5A/s320/img-thing.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465954921237431506" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;But does he love you? Maybe, maybe not.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Why so?&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, love is a deeper feeling. Love is deeper than  likeness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When your boyfriend loves you, he spends more time with you. He's  anxious to be with you.  He wants to spend his life with you. He feels guilty if he's with  someone else. He's willing to  sacrifice everything for you. His heart belongs to you.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Your boy love, your boyfriend love, is for you and you  alone if he wants to spend his life with  you despite your weaknesses or shortcomings.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;A man who recognizes your weaknesses and decides to live  with them loves you&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Question:&lt;/b&gt; How do you know your boy love is for you? How do you  know your boyfriend  loves you?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Answer:&lt;/b&gt; Ask him this simple question. "Do you love  me?"  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let him say it. Do not assume your boy love is for you  because he has been your boyfriend for  four years or more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Question:&lt;/b&gt; Why should you care that your boyfriend loves you or  not?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Answer:&lt;/b&gt; Because love is the very essence of having a  relationship.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Question:&lt;/b&gt; So how do you know your boyfriend loves  you?  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Answer:&lt;/b&gt; Test him.(you figure it out! ok)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not stake your life with a man unless you're absolutely sure he's  your ideal man. Be  absolutely sure he loves you. Be absolutely sure this boy love is for  you and you alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love is a natural thing.  Opposites attract each other. &lt;p&gt;However, before you commit everything you've got to your  boyfriend, make sure the boy love  is genuine. Make sure he truly loves you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9r3YDYxdEI/AAAAAAAAA8A/xBCz9algi8M/s1600/blow.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9r3YDYxdEI/AAAAAAAAA8A/xBCz9algi8M/s320/blow.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465953090365649986" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;p/s Another important thing to remember &lt;b&gt;is&lt;/b&gt; that all &lt;b&gt;men love&lt;/b&gt;  oral sex.

Socrates, the ancient Greek philosopher who spent his days walking around the Athenian marketplace making a pest of himself by challenging people to think about how they lived their lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mhRc9LWNI/AAAAAAAAA7w/sdwm2QcFTD8/s1600/gay-boys-with-crabs.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mhRc9LWNI/AAAAAAAAA7w/sdwm2QcFTD8/s320/gay-boys-with-crabs.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465576943993444562" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Socrates explained it, he believed that his mission was to ask his fellow citizens, "&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Are you not ashamed of your eagerness to possess as much wealth, reputation and honors as possible, while you do not care for nor give thought to wisdom and truth, or the best possible state of your soul?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mjbjGC7jI/AAAAAAAAA74/_5aGxN2Fdpo/s1600/a+good+life.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mjbjGC7jI/AAAAAAAAA74/_5aGxN2Fdpo/s320/a+good+life.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465579316463201842" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Believing that &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;"the most important thing is not life, but the good life,"&lt;/span&gt; Socrates died rather than use unscrupulous ways to avoid being executed on trumped-up charges.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you’ve got an &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;ethical dilemma&lt;/span&gt; on your hands. How do you figure out what to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Generally speaking, there are two major approaches that philosophers use in handling ethical dilemmas. One approach focuses on the practical consequences of what we do; the other concentrates on the actions themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first school of thought basically argues "no harm, no foul"; the second claims that some actions are simply wrong. Thinkers have debated the relative merits of these approaches for centuries, but for the purpose of getting help with handling ethical dilemmas, think of them as complementary strategies for analyzing and resolving problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;By the way, we’re going to assume that if there are any laws involved, you plan to obey them. This isn’t to say that it’s always morally wrong to break laws&lt;/span&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mdF3MCGDI/AAAAAAAAA7Q/wejK6FGrxsc/s1600/rolling_dice.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mdF3MCGDI/AAAAAAAAA7Q/wejK6FGrxsc/s320/rolling_dice.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465572346830133298" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;First, Analyze The Consequences.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;It’s probably easier to start by looking at the consequences of the actions you’re considering. Assume you have a variety of options. Consider the range of both positive and negative consequences connected with each one. Ask yourself...&lt;br /&gt;Who will be helped by what you do? Who will be hurt? What kind of benefits and harms are we talking about?&lt;br /&gt;After looking at all of your options, which one produces the best mix of benefits over harms?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9meF_FY_4I/AAAAAAAAA7Y/Ay0Bkta8o4s/s1600/Analyze+That-robert+deniro_billy+crystal_.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 248px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9meF_FY_4I/AAAAAAAAA7Y/Ay0Bkta8o4s/s320/Analyze+That-robert+deniro_billy+crystal_.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465573448461385602" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Second, Analyze The Actions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Now consider all of your options from a completely different perspective. Don’t think about the consequences. Concentrate instead strictly on the actions.&lt;br /&gt;How do they measure up against moral principles like honesty, fairness, equality, respecting the dignity of others, respecting people' s rights, and recognizing the vulnerability of individuals weaker or less fortunate than others?&lt;br /&gt;Do any of the actions that you' re considering "cross the line."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mf-9tuYcI/AAAAAAAAA7g/S_Ua9cx48Tg/s1600/4acd2234abcaf.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mf-9tuYcI/AAAAAAAAA7g/S_Ua9cx48Tg/s320/4acd2234abcaf.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465575526857859522" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Third, Make A Decision&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;And now, take both parts of your analysis into account and make a decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This should give you at least some basic steps you can follow.&lt;br /&gt;Good Luck...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2065270932938384044-6676576222464744084?l=sufiansteve.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/feeds/6676576222464744084/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2065270932938384044&amp;postID=6676576222464744084&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/6676576222464744084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2065270932938384044/posts/default/6676576222464744084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sufiansteve.blogspot.com/2010/04/resolving-ethical-dilemma-perspective.html' title='Resolving an Ethical Dilemma: A Perspective.'/><author><name>Suf n Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09817824200063497686</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='11' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/SievaWtrp3I/AAAAAAAAAA4/T77FYSJMG68/S220/me1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9mgnZhtw6I/AAAAAAAAA7o/DjMVRJgvENs/s72-c/socrates.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065270932938384044.post-7020361896339158638</id><published>2010-04-27T01:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-27T05:49:10.162-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='time bomb'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Economic 101'/><title type='text'>Economic Stimulus is shifting us from an "economic crisis" to a debt crisis.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9atx5wMS5I/AAAAAAAAA6w/e7ET-OkLL3s/s1600/pp.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 120px; height: 128px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9atx5wMS5I/AAAAAAAAA6w/e7ET-OkLL3s/s320/pp.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5464746270688824210" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;let me tell you a secret....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9aruRRd7OI/AAAAAAAAA6o/osBB29NpkdQ/s1600/chart.gif"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div face="times new roman" style="text-align: justify; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.whorunsgov.com/Profiles/Edward_Kaufman" target=""&gt;Sen.

&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt; If doing so hurts the bankers, that’s O.K.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9Kuf60euhI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/6SLvp4BSYTY/s1600/bagofmoney.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: left;

hurt the bankers. A growing  body of analysis suggests that an oversized financial industry is  hurting the broader economy. &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Shrinking that oversized industry won’t  make Wall Street happy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;but&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;what’s bad for Wall Street would be good for  America.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Now, the reforms currently on the table  —  which I  support  —  might end up being good for the financial industry as well  as for the rest of us. But that’s because they only deal with part of  the problem: they would make finance safer, but they might not make it  smaller.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9KvIAfyeBI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/3IF_kGR08Fc/s1600/20100121_OBAMA_BANKS.large.prod_affiliate.91.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 118px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VxbpoAZrMXE/S9KvIAfyeBI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/3IF_kGR08Fc/s320/20100121_OBAMA_BANKS.large.prod_affiliate.91.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463621850060978194" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What’s the matter with finance? Start with the fact that  the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;modern financial industry &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;generates huge profits and paychecks&lt;/span&gt;, yet  delivers few &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;tangible benefits&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Remember the &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;amp;source=web&amp;amp;ct=res&amp;amp;cd=1&amp;amp;ved=0CAYQFjAA&amp;amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.imdb.com%2Ftitle%2Ftt0094291%2F&amp;amp;ei=3a_SS-6BCsuxrAfS6uzqDQ&amp;amp;usg=AFQjCNGjGBS0EdKY9v6p02VJjq8LICflsw&amp;amp;sig2=2-cs2eks4X-AsLbAO5hpew"&gt;1987 movie “Wall  Street&lt;/a&gt;,” in which &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;amp;source=web&amp;amp;ct=res&amp;amp;cd=1&amp;amp;ved=0CAYQFjAA&amp;amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FGordon_Gekko&amp;amp;ei=_q_SS4KJBYvGrAfCoZiADg&amp;amp;usg=AFQjCNGAJnOjOpxwF1hIY-fEfq-lyCYENA&amp;amp;sig2=x3UsWr_0Aih0i13rZtcEVw"&gt;Gordon Gekko&lt;/a&gt; declared: &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Greed is good?&lt;/span&gt; By today’s  standards, Gekko was a piker. In the years leading up to the 2008  crisis, the financial industry accounted for a third of total domestic  profits  —  about twice its share two decades earlier. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In his Thursday speech, by the way, Mr. Obama insisted  —  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;twice&lt;/span&gt;  —   that financial reform won’t stifle innovation. Too bad.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;And here’s  the thing: after taking a big hit in the immediate aftermath of the  crisis, financial-industry profits are soaring again. It seems all too  likely that the industry will soon go back to playing the same games  that got us into this mess in the first place.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;So what should
