Hi All4One, Ophir and all,
The radiation clouds from the Woomera area is of much more concern for Australians. A cloud with radiation levels something like 2000 times above the allowable level drifted over S.A. and Adelaide. Another cloud of radiation drifted over Qld. Who knows what that did to the people and was it responsible for some of the illness that clusters in some areas. Damaged DNA passed on down through the generations
I agree it’s not good; however, it may explain the lack of active brain cells in our politicians in Canberra and Queensland!
I know I’m the one that led this thread off track; however, it is interesting hearing the points of view.
Here’s another question for the economic commentators here.
Did the US FED action QE & TARP etc. save the economy from 2008 onwards? They and others certainly claim they did and many people would have us believe these claims, however, after spending 19-20 minutes watching the following video clip I’m not so sure.
If this guy is correct and he sounds convincing enough to me it’s possible that all they did was exacerbate the problem. Or maybe they knew exactly what they where doing and wanted to commence one of the biggest transfers of wealth to the bankers and their friends in history. If the second scenario is correct they have done a great job.
Are they about to commence the next round one wonders?

Possibly we may have all been better off if the Iceland solution had been applied, jailed the banker criminals and then rebuild the economy.
IMF Survey: Iceland was in a state of collapse in 2008 but is now back on its feet and has become a success story. Can you give us a sense of Iceland’s economic picture today?
