more like humpty dumpty….
dont worry, we have all the smart people in the A-team that will guide us through!!
Brothers, the A-team has no solutions to this crises. They can only lessen the pain, find the alternative B-team instead.
Was the Team has the substance to be of the Grade A in the first place?
Obama will not be PM in Singapore as he was not born with a A-team qualities.
Yet the American System give him a chance!
Do we think LKYism will go down in history?
Do not bank too much on Obama.
US, under ex President Bush, has got itself into much trouble meddling into other countries’ internal affairs. War Expenditures alone runs into billions of US Dollars per year. Domestically, imprudent consumptions have led to debts and unscrupulous businessmen in the Financial Sector have resulted in extensive damages to the economy.
The Composition of the American Population maybe a potential flash point if the African Race Americans become too boisterous just because one of them has become the President of the United States now. Because of job losses and unemployments, social cohesion in multi-racial society always get threatened. America may have not seen the worst of its’ problems, it will get very bad.
Greed plagues the Human Society World wide, wealths are in the hands of a minority of sly people whose appetites for money are inexplicably insatiable. The worst side of these people is that they do not seem to be sensitive to the plights of other fellow beings.

For the current moment, we have to because of the US currency. Unless there is a gradual & yet stable effort to decouple the whole global economic system from US currency which is practically unlikely. There is a similar chinese saying, “once you have ridden a tiger, it is difficult for you to get down”.
The global system has created & keeps alive a big monster that is hard to tackle. Ask any economist and you will understand.

Well isnt it good – so that we need not consume as much sand as possible when we once thought money can buy cheap endless sand supplies now that we need not build and build so much.
In fact glass suppliers are laughing, they are saying thank you to sand suppliers whose action to raise sand prices/curtail exports causes glass demand to rise.
Of course, here we give credit to our creative builders and their gang who came out with all glass-identical projects sprouting everywhere. And property agents would know the ages of the projects that they are marketing by looking at its structure of all glass or half glass-concrete.
Smart chaps – even concrete lift-shafts have almost disappeared
