#4 It also means food priced out of sight in Africa, and medicines priced out of sight, and trade locked up, and so on. A lot of innocent bystanders are going to die.

#8 All the plan does is shift the debts of high risk borrowers on to lower risk borrowers. Thus making them higher risk borrowers.

Rather than containing contagion, it will cause contagion.

#10 The world has been sliding into depression and has been on the verge of catastrophe since 2007. There will always be room for a different flavor of global catastrophe brought on by the boundless creativity of the smartest guys in the financial world.

#11 What to expect from a socialist conservative like AEP. More printed or "easing" money obviously.
It will not work..

#12 Utterly forgotten in this brouhaha is a simple principle: Banks are supposed to have expertise in preserving capital and managing risk. If they cannot discharge those simple duties, then perhaps they should not be in the business of finance. Most of all, they should not be engaging in behavior that puts taxpayer money at risk. - Barry Ritholz

#13 Another point of view from an ER doc in Portugal: on the other hand Europe without unity and peace means wars and destruction. And that is far more expensive that bailing out countries...
Believe me: our enemy is not Russia, or the US or Wall Street: our enemy is a globalization that gave a Communist Country the power to use its planned economy, slave labour and a artificial low value currency to impose a new world order... The US may have Drones, Aircraft Carriers, Nukes but in fact CHINA is getting its claws on our Democratic System... wake up Free World and never forget you were born in ATHENS, GREECE!
