My fear is that desinomy is not really "delinked" from Khanomy - it USED TO BE time-delayed (zeroth order), but now only phase-shifted (first order), but unlike a 1st order system, the desi market's reaction can also be hugely amplified and may not have any damping. So we may be seeing in ...

But not dangerous like Hitler. Comparing the two to discredit Ron Paul is dishonest argument as it ignores the role the two have played in their respective countries.

Govt of Kerala had recently notified that the Govt valuation for one cent (0.01 Acre) in Trichur round is 2-5 ~ 3 crores. :shock: AoA!

OK, thanks for the data. 15000x12=180,000.

180,000/5000,000 ~ 0.036 or 3.6%.

Who gets loans at 3.6% ??? Otherwise u r losing money on the 50 lakhs, unless, of course, that came from some place that could not be invested in a bank account reported to the guvrmand EyeTee.

I was just looking at a quote in Bangalore, Keralastan (not 2 b confused with Blooru).

the main problem isn't demographics (at the moment) but the lack of any new productive industry which can create jobs on a massive scale. Real estate of the 2000s was no substitute for the IT industry of the 90s. Banking & bull&hitting sure as hell isn't an industry any more than tarot card...

In the scheme of things, Bade, one way to look at this and maintain sanity is that this is only a "transient" phase of negative slope. The thermodynamic equilibrium argument would suggest that with totally free mobility of goods, services and people, conditions would pretty -much equalize,...

Look at it this way: If the GOTUS REALLY WANTS, they can do the "pumping" into buying renewable power generators and price supports for green cars, even as they squeeze fossil taxes on the other side. In 2 years flat, the US would be seen as the Xanadu of renewable energy (already shows mu...

Bade: I suspect that a lot of old fogeys saw the irrational spiral of the "Free Market" in housing, and instead pumped every penny they could to pay off their mortgage and get the heck OUT of the loan system. So they lost out on a lot of the fancy FreeMarKhanomics mumbo jumbo, while the Sm...

rates are still at rock bottom I don't think that is quite true in general. There are few if any loans available at low rates, even for ppl with decent credit rating.
