Raising taxes to pay for government programs/jobs, too bad no one has looked beyond the short term effects. The gov takes this capital from others(through taxation, inflation, debt) and then decides how to spend it. So why does the consumption tax need to be raised? So the government can continue…

Nakagawa told Godmanis that there are differences in the situations faced by Japan and Latvia, saying the Japanese government’s heavy debts are mostly owned by domestic investors

Japan is full of these idiots, that think they can offer advice on the "financial crisis." In reality it could not be further…

Tokyo stocks rise on U.S. economic stimulus hopes

Oh yeah, government will fix everything! Whatever, go short as it will not last- make your money while you can and get out. The only way it could last would be another bubble in the making(HELLO US TREASURIES/maybe even Japanese Bonds).…

Saving what people think is valuable is human nature. Saving and loans do not matter so long as it is dictated by a free market without government intervention/control, yet we/the market have central banks(central planning) controlling everything/interest rates. Private loans are acceptable, the market setting interest rates is acceptable, but…

I also must say only the market can create jobs, and only the market can dictate wages. Work does not create wages, the market does. Only to see the person who produced to get taxed heavily to subsidize some idiot elsewhere in the economy since that person is unprofitable. Gotta…

here is no way of continueing to run the country if we don't put out a lot of money. At least till we change our own conditions.

We have to create jobs to put people back…

HeathenCabin: "Either way the US government should jump off a cliff, the results would be astounding."

Good idea. bush and co. SHOULD do this when they head out the door. The incoming government deserves a bit of a chance first before they're asked to do the same.

Actually, I really…

This is just idiotic. It will not work. Government is not needed to fix the problems that the government created... The japanese government is stupid, the whole lot. Of course these idiots believe that they can fix everything with magic yen(that is stolen from those that produce the real wealth).

Print prosperity, Obama Dollars!

Yeah trillions upon trillions in debt- this money will just magically come out of the air! Or the countries/people of the world continue to finance US debt- which I do not think is going to continue. Too bad the government just does not understand that it…
