Michael Hudsun er ikke en Hr. Hvem-som-helst når det gælder økonomi:
""Michael acts as an economic advisor to governments worldwide including Iceland, Latvia and China on finance and tax law. ""

Klip:
""The easiest way to understand Europe’s financial crisis is to look at the solutions being proposed to resolve it. They are a banker’s dream, a grab bag of giveaways that few voters would be likely to approve in a democratic referendum. Bank strategists learned not to risk submitting their plans to democratic vote after Icelanders twice refused in 2010-11 to approve their government’s capitulation to pay Britain and the Netherlands for losses run up by badly regulated Icelandic banks operating abroad. Lacking such a referendum, mass demonstrations were the only way for Greek voters to register their opposition to the €50 billion in privatization sell-offs demanded by the European Central Bank (ECB) in autumn 2011. ""

God læselyst.

Gorrion i forklædning ham Michael Hudson ? Det er da mange godbidder på hans hjemmeside.

Ja - de ligger pudsigt nok ikke så langt fra hinanden. Og formentlig så har de begge ret i det meste.
