My Weltanschhaung - 11/2/2012

I am glad that atleast now a few Greek politicos have called the bail out terms extortionate. I think Greeks should default on their loans. Else, where is the risk for the lender who seems to get his money back in all circumstances and even by hurting innocent victims in a society.

A more disturbing news is that Chinese imports (of raw materials, I presume) fell in January. This will worry all export led growth oriented countries, unless they are beating China at their own game. Unlikely though since Chinese firms enjoy state subsidised capitalism.

Harry Redknapp seems to be inching towards the England managership. I suppose every man rises to a level of failure, but it won't be Harry's fault as there appears to be a shortage of talent in England.

Argentina accuses the UK of storing nuclear weapons near the Falklands. At the same time the UK tries to prevent Iran and others from getting nuclear weapons.

The global outlook for oil appears gloomy, so will the energy suppliers lower retail prices?
