    Providing additional liquidity is a first step in promoting economic revovery. What the European Commission is repotedly preparing is a straight Keynesian economic stimulus. It's a backing away from former austerity measures, which were never going to work.

    Agreed.

    Can we learn from the Eu in the US or do we need to *cut cut cut spending with the same results here too?

    *Except of course for military spending. We can not afford to stop sending our sons and daughters to distant foreign wars; that would be unethical!
