19th Jun - US Open: Blame Game

G20 seems utterly useless - yes, new money pledges to IMF, but a lot of it from countries like Spain, Italy, and even Cyprus. Barroso blames Americans for the Europe's problems, and U.K.'s prime minister welcomes rich French ahead of possible marginal tax rate hikes in France. I have been saying it all along and I am saying it again... these people cannot solve the mess we're in.

The Euro crisis is all their own doingbilly blog
It is only when the prospects of growth are good and tax bases strong that the bond markets will take the risk and lend at low yields to governments that use a foreign currency (the Euro). That is because they always know there is solvency risk. Thinking that austerity will solve a sovereign debt problem in a monetary union where all the member states face solvency issues is like thinking that pigs might fly. It is a fantasy.

European Redemption Fund: Unlikely to Workeconomist meg
the ERF addresses the debt crisis in the EZ, but nothing to address the banking crisis or the balance of payments crisis. Just as importantly, it is going to be impossible for Spain and Italy to hit the conditions required to avail of the ERF.
