    • 家园 【原创】新年政治经济展望之四:金融资本(四)

      金融资本放开管制,货币汇率放开流动,然后鼓励你按照西方经济学理论,实行紧缩的货币政策,就可以布置这么一个仙人局。如果回望这30来年,从南美州,到东南亚,其实这些剧目是一直在上演的。这次不同的是,这个折子戏,用到了白人至上的欧洲自己的兄弟阵营里来了。

      而且第一个受害者,就是被人家自封的西方文化的发源之地希腊,倒是充满了反讽的意味。

      圈钱游戏,本来是西方发达国家的大爷们用来对付人种低劣的发展中国家,比如说墨西哥、阿根廷、巴西、泰国、马来西亚等等地方的,现在要用来对付自家兄弟,而且还是自己的民主自由的革命圣地希腊,从某种意识上,预示了西方文明的衰落。

      如果欧洲人不把自己的篱笆扎紧,那么除了现在的笨猪国家集团,那一大堆东欧国家,个个政府摆出来的小样,就是等着被国际金融资本去强暴。

      所以说德国和法国提出要搞自己的主权信用评级机构,而不是被美国操控的标准普尔和穆迪上下其手,是一个必由之路。

      从欧洲的教训,看中国,有人认为中国现在财大气粗,手上有2万亿美元储备,应该可以在资本自由的掠夺游戏中,有所作为。其实这种想法是错的。因为中国不具备美元这个国际货币的发钞权,是没有法子玩这个游戏。你觉得2万亿数字很大,岂不知人家美联储小指头一动的功夫,就可以印出这个2万亿出来?

      而且世界上,现在玩弄资本游戏,炉火纯青的玩家,就是盎格鲁-撒克逊金融资本,其实更准确的是,就是这些地方的犹太资本。

      因此要搞清楚国际资本的发展和布局的大势,就必须从犹太资本谈起。

      在谈这个问题之前,先说一下这两天俺在美国看到的一个事情。在俺早上开车上班的时候,前面有一辆皮卡,整个车身上,用涂鸦的方式写满了“杀死犹太人”的标语。说实在话,这样的标语俺还是头一次在日常生活中见到,可以想见美国民情的暗流汹涌。

      谈起犹太资本,就必须讲《旧约圣经》里面的一个故事。在《创世纪》一篇里,有一个故事,说的是犹太人约瑟被自己的哥哥们陷害,做为奴隶而卖到了埃及。后来能干的约瑟就成了主人的管家,把主人的财产管理得井井有条。

      但是后来约瑟因为主人的年轻老婆求爱不成,被陷害就蹲进了监狱,在这里结识了埃及王的烟酒专卖局长和王宫食堂总管。后来发生的一个转机,就是埃及法老发了一个怪梦:先是梦见了七只肥美母牛,然后七只干瘪母牛吃掉了肥美母牛。然后就是七个饱满麦穗,然后七个细弱的麦穗吞噬了饱满的麦穗。

      于是约瑟的神奇解梦功夫就用上了。这个功夫,就像是后来犹太人中涌现的大经济学家们一样,比如说萨缪尔森啊,弗里德曼啊,还有现在的克鲁格曼啊,大萧条专家伯南克啊,救市专家格林斯潘啊,等等,就是说可以帮你当权者指点迷津,所谓理论话语权的解释功夫。

      不要小看了这个功夫,大概美国的整个社会的根本,在于其建国时制定的宪法,而对宪法的解释权,是一直控制在高等法院的几个老朽的手上。美国的宪法,也就是俺们中国人曾经谈论过的祖宗大法,是人家动不动就挂在嘴巴上的东西。你要干一件事,比如说禁枪的话,人家大喊一声,你违宪,于是就只有歇菜了。

      而美国历史上的几位著名的总统,就是干的是违反宪法的事情。美国的开国之父华盛顿,在法国大革命之后爆发的英法战争中间,根据法国和美国的两国条约,应该由国会向英国宣战,但是华盛顿违背宪法,在国会坚决反对的情况下,宣布美国中立,不介入英法战争。

      后来的林肯总统,也是在宪法没有规定总统具有权力使用战争来维持联邦统一的情况下,并在国会没有授权的时候,就私下决定对南方各州采取港口封锁的战争行为。

      再后来的小罗斯福总统,则是在二次世界大战期间,美国国会宣布中立的时候,已经派出美国海军参与英国的军事行动,希望造成和德国的摩擦,比如说美国海军舰船被德国潜艇击沉的事端,来迫使国会宣战。

      而美国宪法的主要撰写人,被称为“宪法之父”的麦迪逊,则是彻底遵循了自己写的宪法的原则,在他的总统任期期间,遵守了国会通过的对英国宣战的1812年战争。虽然麦迪逊自己非常反对这个自杀行为,但是他完全遵守宪法的约束。其结果就是美国在战争中不光是惨败,而且差不多要被英国给肢解和分裂成一堆国家。最后是杰克逊在新奥尔良一战中,打败了入侵的英军,才保住了美国。

      而比这个宪法解释权次一点重要的,就是对经济运作的解释权。而这个解释权,基本上就是被犹太资本所垄断。所以不少美国人,是把美联储成立这件事,看成了美国失去独立地位的事件。

      回到古埃及的约瑟,他的解梦功夫,就是向法老兜售了一个理论。约瑟认为七个肥牛和七个饱满的麦穗,说明了埃及会有七个农业的丰收年,七个瘦牛和七个弱小的麦穗,说明了这之后会来到的七个饥荒年,而且这些饥荒年,会把丰收年的成果给消耗掉。

      约瑟提出的经济管理方法,其实就是对经济运行周期波动的调整。这个调整颇类似于今天的电网管理,就是在发电峰期通过储存能量,来弥补发电谷期,从而平缓整个电能供应。

      那么在农业社会,因为对天气依赖比较大,那么在丰年的时候搞储谷防饥,是很自然的事情。不过想一想现在的很多国家管理者,在国家经济发展比较好的时候,就拼命加大财政支出,也不考虑经济的周期,到了经济发展迟缓的时候,居然自己债台高垒,入不敷出,连简单的经济道理都不明白了。

      比如俺们美国的加州,就是看到经济好的时候,拼命花钱,结果就是所有的财政预算都是以好年景的税收做为依据,结果2008年一下子税收大减,立即就出现预算危机了。

      通宝推:坚持到底,yueyu,李根,桃子甜,山龙,金口玉言,

      • 家园 先花后看

        井大讲得真是深入浅出,言简意赅

      • 家园 不是他们不懂储谷防饥的道理

        是美国现在的政治体制决定的,中国人说:崽卖爷田不心痛,

        美国是反过来,爷卖崽田,花的是子孙后代的钱,先发债再说,我死后,管它洪水滔天

        这个是民主体制导致的短视,选民们(或者说愚民们)的短视导致了政客的短视,没有一个利益集团愿意自己的预算被砍,前两天加州学生示威,却没有人提加州的学费低于美国平均很多。

        不过想一想现在的很多国家管理者,在国家经济发展比较好的时候,就拼命加大财政支出,也不考虑经济的周期,到了经济发展迟缓的时候,居然自己债台高垒,入不敷出,连简单的经济道理都不明白了。

        比如俺们美国的加州,就是看到经济好的时候,拼命花钱,结果就是所有的财政预算都是以好年景的税收做为依据,结果2008年一下子税收大减,立即就出现预算危机了。

      • 家园 帕潘德里欧访美去了。

        希腊总理帕潘德里欧抵达美国後,随即在华盛顿发表讲话,猛烈批评市场投资活动。他说,欧洲及美国必须向那些只顾眼前利益的投机客说不。分析指帕潘德里欧将会要求美国总统奥巴马,协助欧洲打击投机炒卖,他表示投机活动已经导致金融市场波动,如果欧洲危机蔓延,造成新一波全球危机,影响力与两年前美国引发的危机同样巨大。

        是福不是祸,是祸躲不过。

        希腊能有什么筹码能跟米国交换呢。

      • 家园 西方文化的发源之地希腊 Great Record

        Just got my book from Amazon by Carmen Reinhart and Ken Rogoff, very famous economist.

        *AGAIN, WHAT WE LEARN BELOW IS THAT HUMAN BEINGS AS A WHOLE, do not learn from the history.

        Table of Sovereign External Debt Crises.

        There is one Table called "Cumulative Tally of Default and Rescheduling Since Year of Independence to 2008"

        Shares of years in

        Default/Reschedule Total No. of Defaults

        Since 1800 or independence

        ***Greece 50.6 (top1) 5

        **Russia 39.1 5

        **Hungary 37.1 7

        **Poland 32.6 3

        *Spain 23.7 13

        *Romania 23.3 3

        Austria 17.4 7

        Turkey 15.5 6

        Germany 13 8

        Portugal 10.6 6

        Nederlands 6.3 1

        Italy 3.4 1

        UK and all other Anglo-Saxon nations--all 0

        Nordic nations also have perfect records.

        Lessons,

        1. *History always repeats itself. So I guess 井底望天 could not blame CDS for the past 50 years of debt default or restructuring. Hehe, Greece is the source of civilization, as well as CHAMPION OF NATIONAL BANKRUPTCY.

        2. *200 years later, this explosion started from P..Gs again. Thumbs up to Italy for better record. Ireland is not there since it was then part of UK.

        Germany used to be the financial wasteland, now it shook off the bad image and was the pillar of European stability.

        3. Those two American scholars show some domestic bias here--US did have a sovereign debt crisis, but it did not end up in default--because all Independence War bonds were pushed to average Americans, then Those bonds were bought up by Wall Street bankers 5 to 10 cents for one dollar who later on traded under a tree on the Wall Street, at around 20 cents for one dollar.

        They gave birth to the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE--or it should be called New York Worthless State-converted-Federal Bond Exchange with One Oak Above Your Heads (NYSBE-OOAYH).

        *So the 1800 cut-off seems to be a technical trick.

        4. Between 1800 to 1900--America had several STATE bond bankruptcies (Pennsylvania in 1850s, for example) which cost millions for British banking houses.

        For once, Americans in London= bankrupt scumbags who came back again begging for the High Street money.

        Therefore, there was no Sovereign debt crisis at the federal level for America, but there were many state bankruptcies in US.

      • 家园 on US vs. Euro fight

        这个折子戏,用到了白人至上的欧洲自己的兄弟阵营里来了。

        --Not bad. I have been dreaming of watching this great show for a while. It seems that the Atlantic division is increasing day by day.

        而且第一个受害者,就是被人家自封的西方文化的发源之地希腊,倒是充满了反讽的意味。

        --发源之地希腊--hehe, Greece has too high regard for itself. Ancient Romans looked down upon Greeks for lots of useless philosophical debate. Romans also did not adopted popular democratic system from Athens. For practical Romans, those are blah blah talkers who can never agree among themselves on anything.

        BTW, we should use the term Athens civilization, not "Greek civilization". Spartans are also Greeks, but those were brutal barbarians who contributed nothing to today's science, technology and political institutions. They are people who arranged individual marriage purely for giving birth to future soldiers and who brutally murdered their own children based on any small defect.

        Those are Hitlers 2000 years ago. Very disgusting. BTW, the movie "300" has too much racism contents there.

        America followed Rome, not Greece. Use Uncle Ben's word (that guy on the $100 bill): we are republic, not a democracy.

        BTW, Chinese sometimes have too romantic perception of Europe. Below is some embarrassing exposure of its true history from me.

        Europe in late 19th century was a vulnerable lab of so-called democracy, with lots of legacies from the past monarchies. Even that experiment turned out to be a big hypocrtical comedy, ending up in two disastrous world wars.

        In the book of "Dark Continent", the European democracies are mostly laughing stocks.

        --Look at French Republic: before WWII, change of cabinet is at least as frequent as the annual Christmas, if not more. French constitution was under constant revision and there were 5 versions in the last 200 years.

        --Spain/Portugal were barbarian nations "on the other side of the mountain", according to European standard;

        --Belgian parliament hardly functioned well given the language fight;

        --Luxumberg was well-known for poverty and mass exodus of population (today it is the richest nation on the earth); --Germany is a never stable nation between 1910 to 1939. --Poland always had trouble with neighbors and lived under a parliament that did not function normally...

        --Most Eastern European nations broke away from former master, but soon fell under the paw of the Red dictatorial Russian bear.

        Keep in mind, national self-determination and then the blossom of parliamentary democracy was not possible for most continental Europea until after the Versailles Accord.

        In summary, before WWI, UK might be the only European parliamentary democracy that had stood the test of time and crises. Holland was similar, but too small to win international attention.

        Oops, sorry, Britons protest-they never perceive of themselves as "Europeans". Sorry, then there was actually no solid/functioning democracy in Europe before WWI. After WWI, democracy became the fad word, but it often malfunctioned in several European nations, e.g., German Weimar Republic.

        Parliamentary democracies finally established their deep roots in Europe after WWII--one major factor is the emergence of a large growing middle-class in each country.

        In sum, without a solid middle class, any beautiful democratic design is just a blueprint on the paper. Many national constitutions were written up by the best professors in those nations, oops, but democracy just malfunctioned in many post-WWI European countries.

      • 家园 希腊不仅仅是高盛或者金融那么简单

        希腊长期使用高额gdp百分比用于军费。(军费占比居然在欧洲排名第2,约4.3%) 希腊根本没有那么高的防务要求。尤其加入北约后,集体防卫的威慑力早就高于希腊自身的防务需求,足以制止外部对希腊的威胁。为了一个塞浦路斯和土耳其长期对峙,把大幅军费开支长期分批隐藏于政府其他预算中(有报道称仅仅97-03就隐藏了约87亿美元),这才是希腊财政失衡去融资市场东搞西搞搞砸的主要原因之一。其他腐败什么的大家自己去想。有意思的是,希土两家的主要军购来源无非美德法。希土是所谓自作孽,可也别忽视背后好几只推手。

        要是仅仅是个融资问题,冻结希腊1-3年的军备购置足以解决。为什么还要向公务员等公共开支下手,其中奥妙,值得玩味。
