The Failure of Infrastructure Building under the Obama administration.
10/21/2008
Only a small portion- about one fifth according to one estimate- of the $787 Stimulus Bill was actually allocated for infrastructure building. And in some cases such as high speed rail only $8 billion was allocated, clearly insufficient to build a high speed rail system in te USA. And public perception is that infrastructure allocation has already taken place, so it has ceased to be a priority even though the nation's infrastructure needs rebuilding.

Roubini on China, currency issues, and domestic consumption in China.
05/17/2010
By letting the yuan China can shift the benefits to households, who will have more purchasing power, and reverse the shift that has taken place in the last 10 years, with domestic consumption making up about 36% of GDP- down by about 10 points from ten years earlier. State owned companies gained at the expense of households, as did infrastructure spending, but it is leading to misallocation of investments and hurting households. As a result China will hit a growth wall in the next 2-3 years, says Roubini.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
