[13:12] {Will49} can't partial out if you're dead
01[13:12] {Threei}  but after reviewing some photos of monastery waitresses, that plan is still on
01[13:12] {Threei}  frikin C... that WAS a rinse!
01[13:12] {Threei}  sacre blu
[13:13] {nemo} who's speaking
[13:13] {nemo} ?
01[13:13] {Threei}  guess
[13:14] {nemo} Obama?
01[13:14] {Threei}  yup
01[13:14] {Threei}  (US) President Obama confirms invitation of Congressional leaders to White House to address fiscal cliff; wants to bring business and civic leaders to Washington to get their ideas
01[13:14] {Threei}  - Would like to see a plan that reduces the deficit in a 'balanced' way; would like to see focus on infrastructure
01[13:14] {Threei}  - Must combine spending cuts with increased revenue (including asking wealthy Americans to pay more in taxes, mentions the $250K threshold); must bring down costs of medicare
01[13:14] {Threei}  - Would like to bring down deficit by $4T over the next decade; not 'wedded' to every detail of plan, but will not accept any plan that is not balanced }
01[13:14] {Threei}  - On election day, the majority Americans agreed with approach
01[13:14] {Threei}  - Encouraged by the House Speaker comments that he is open to revenues
01[13:15] {Threei}  two hot air speeches from each side
01[13:16] {Threei}  zero substance
[13:16] {nemo} 4T? it's 1.4T a year, how the hell does he expect to do that?  That means he has to run surpluses
[13:16] {nemo} NFW!!!
01[13:16] {Threei}  hehe
[13:16] {nemo} UFB
01[13:17] {Threei}  this is after borrowing 1.1 - 1.3T each year of the first term
01[13:17] {Threei}  my firm bet is, the same rate of borrowing for the next 4 yearsm, around 1T annually
01[13:18] {Threei}  which takes me to that 20T in 2016
01[13:19] {Threei}  it's simple really: we have about 30% of annual govt expenses borrowed; govt spending is the only thing that keeps GDP growing, even so weakly;
01[13:19] {Threei}  stop borrowing, boom - instant recession
[13:19] {Will49} keep borrowing...death by athousnd cuts
01[13:20] {Threei}  yup
01[13:20] {Threei}  keep borrowing - get closer to the moment when bond byers go on strike
01[13:20] {Threei}  they buy willingly still because US is the skinniest girl in a fat camp
[13:21] {Will49} nice visual
01[13:21] {Threei}  then you have Fed as the only bond buyer,
[13:21] {nemo} yeah, and she'll have to get down on her knees soon
01[13:21] {Threei}  and then you face printing as the only way to extinguish debt
[13:21] {Will49} another nice visual
01[13:21] {Threei}  well, that or default
01[13:22] {Threei}  one is horrible inflation, another is horrible deflation
01[13:22] {Threei}  good governing folks
01[13:22] {Threei}  and that goes for both, democrats and republicans
01[13:23] {Threei}  NDC target hit

01[15:15] {Threei}  Sony's credit rating heads toward junk pile Japan's electronics sector is reeling, gov't minister says no bailout is coming.
01[15:15] {Threei}  Just over a week ago, we reported that Sharp, one of Japan�s biggest electronics firms, may be set to go under. We also noted how other Japanese tech mega-corporations, including Panasonic and Sony, aren�t doing too well either. After Sharp posted its most recent loss, its financial rating fell to junk status, and the company is now seeking a government bailout. Panasonic was also hit with a near-junk rating by Fitch earlier this month, after it posted a loss 30 times larger than analysts had estimated.
01[15:15] {Threei}  Sony�the biggest of Japan�s big dogs�can�t escape the bad news either. On Friday, Moody's downgraded Sony�s long-term debt rating from Baa2 to Baa3, one notch above junk status. This marks the second time in a month Sony has been hit with a downgrade.

[11:42] {nemo} The mother, who couldn't think of an answer, told her son to ask the flight attendant. So the boy asked the flight attendant: “If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, how come big planes don't have baby planes?”
[11:42] {nemo} The flight attendant responded: “Did your mother tell you to ask me?”
[11:42] {nemo} The boy admitted that this was the case.
[11:42] {nemo} “Well, then, tell your mother that there are no baby planes because Virgin Australia always pulls out on time. Ask your mother to explain that to you."

01[14:04] {Threei}  although I'd argue, I was not so much for romney as I was againsta obama :)
[14:04] {robbers} Yeah, distinctly different.  You can vote for one candidate....or against the other.
[14:05] {Les} or not vote at all
[14:05] {robbers} Or just cash in your chips and vote for Ron Paul.
01[14:05] {Threei}  the only way republicans wouldn';t get my endorsement would be if they ran Karl Marx as their candidate

01[13:33] {Threei}  yup
01[13:35] {Threei}  oh lord
01[13:35] {Threei}  (EU) Germany and Finland reportedly express concerns that the single bank supervisor may not ensure separation of the ECB roles as monetary authority- Recommends the increase in power of the supervisory board and limit the ECB's Governing council roles; Supervisory board must be allowed to make decisions without approval of the Governing council
01[13:36] {Threei}  - Major decisions taken by the supervisory council will require Governing council approval - National supervisories should be given the main roles to handle smaller financial institutions - Chief of the Supervisory Board should be given a 5 year term that is not renewable
01[13:37] {Threei}  IMO, all EU head figures should be given 5 years term... and some much longer
