What would be good centres for economic development in Afghanistan? IPE theory holds that economic development that gives rise to a middle class simultaneously erodes the power of extremist political positions. Hence, as Amartya Sen and F.A. Hayek would argue, "development is freedom." The economic mover in Afghanistan seems to be opium. If it is more cost-effective in the long-run to spend international aid money on development of legal commodities and industries, rather than on narcotics interdiction, what would be good economic structures to invest in for the purpose of development?

Are international bankers controlled by or followers of Satan ? abraham lincoln refused to borrow money at 36% interest from private bankers, so he issued federal " greenbacks " to pay for the civil war......less than a year later he was assassinated andrew jackson refused to concede power to the newly established bank of the united states, during his term a man came up and put two guns into his belly and pulled the trigger, the guns misfired, two years later jackson abolished the bank of the U.S. president garfield publicly stated he could not make decisions, that the real control of the U.S. was in the hands of the money movers....less than one hundred days later, he was assassinated JFK planned to take control away from the privately owned banks of the federal reserve, and put the federal government in complete control of U.S. currency...he was killed are these just coincidences, or is something amiss with all this? these are verifiable facts. why don't we learn about this in our history books?

How do those comic book villains manage to build huge underground headquarters in secret...? ...and then, all they want to do is rule the world! Man, if I was able to secretly put a multistory complex complete with cold fusion power source, air conditioning and running water under a warehouse in Brooklyn or a townhouse in Manhattan, I wouldn't bother to do anything that would make the international law enforcement community mad at me! I'd hire out as a contracting firm and earn billions! (Imagine how much could have been saved on the costs for Boston's famous Central Artery Project alone!) Forget about giant Nazi robots stealing the entire White House. How about using them to tear down some slum firetraps and make way for clean, affordable housing? How about a comic book called "Movers and Shakers"...? Their motto: "If you want the job done right, on time and under cost-- it takes a Villain!"

What is the most cost efficient way to ship a 10 cu ft package from US to Greece(south europe)? I live in Greece and I represent a small group of consumers.We want to buy boardgames from the US since the prices there are very cheap.Unfortunately,US postal service no longer provides the surface mail option,so only air mail is available.This also has severe weight and volume limits(I could roughly fit 10 board games in one order) I am searching the internet for shipping companies that can bring the merchandise to Athens,Greece via a sea route,but maybe I am not searching with the right keywords.Should I search for "international shipping" or "movers" or "courrier services" or what? thanks for any answers fellows. Edit: fedex is really an unacceptable answer:they are way too expensive.I have found companies that will charge me half the cost,and I still find the rates expensive,400$ just to carry a large box in a ship. Bongo was great for shoppers,but still very expensive.

Is outsourcing low skilled assembly jobs overseas good for USA economy? You decide? Here is the logic behind shipping jobs overseas, in particular assembly jobs that low skilled workers can do. I am not defending the position, just giving you the logic. The items America produces the best in the world are complicated industrial machinery. Best example of this would be bulldozers, earth moving equipment, and farm equipment made by companies like John Deere and Caterpillar. Because of the standard of living in the USA, American labor cannot compete in the manufacture of consumer items that sell for $100 or less on the international market. In order to compete, production cost would have to be cut, which effects the quality of the item. In other words, it would be junk. In countries like China and India, in particular, labor is so cheap that hiring 1000 people with shovels cost less than buying an earth mover to build roads or whatever. The notion is to send these assembly jobs of small consumer items to these countries to raise the standard of living there so it is no longer cost effective to use manual labor over machinery on big projects. This is starting to work in China. Both China and India are several decades away from having a skilled labor force that will actually be able to produce complication industrial machinery that works. Bear in mind that selling a boat load of bulldozers to China is much more revenue, requires higher paying manufacturing labor, than a boat load of shoes China would sell to the USA. Right now, companies that make highly engineered industrial equipment like 3M and GE are sending lots of equipment to China. Given time, the industrial expansion of China will create great demand for quality produced industrial equipment from the USA.

Were the socialist policies of the Democrats more tolerable when...? they were national socialists like FDR, Truman, and Kennedy than the current international socialists? I mean at least you knew FDR would stand up for the interests of the United States while he was redistributing the wealth... Now the Democrats still want the "movers-and-shakers" to foot the lions share of the US government bill, but dehumanize and demonize them to gain favor with the average US citizen and are unwilling to defend their income generating interests abroad... Is a little respect and the occasional "I got your back" too much to ask for employing US citizens, providing goods and services, and paying 35% of your income in taxes? John S, yeah, I was a little reluctant to use "national socialist" because I realized nazi might come to mind. Then while trying to decide on an alternate description I decided to go with it and see what response it got... Well, you connected the dots and in the first answer nonetheless. I really was trying to indicate a United States first socialism versus the International Socialism of the old Comintern or the Socialist International.

Is the Mega 2000 Lottery drawing held in London, England on March 20, 2007 a fraud.? I received a check for $2998.80 that was supposed to be to assist me with the finance of international clearance fees of $2845.00 to be forwarded to my North American Agent. They said that I would receive a total of $120,000.00 minus $6,000.00 (5%Sponsor's Commission). Total $114,000. The agent's name is Angela Peterson, at 1240 Spencer Blvd., Ste 400, Winnipeg MB. Prizes must be claimed no later than April 6, 2007. I call the number that was listed. 1-204-887-5538. The woman that I spoke with was diffinitely not an American Citizen. The check was on a company in California named Low Cost Movers, 2652 Briarglen Rd. Acton CA 93510-2110. Does anyone else have any information on this scam. She told me to deposit the check and after it cleared in 3 days to write them a check for 2845.00 and send to her address.

could somebody summarise this articles into 50 words please..? TOPIC: ONLINE UNIVERSITY Aug 21 - 28 2006 issue- styudying in Iraq and Uganda doesnt mean having to pass up a diploma from aworld class university anymore. Not when so many are available online. Oxford University, to cite just one example, has offered its master's in international-human-rights law to student working for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in East Timor, or those aiding tsunami survivors in Acheh. Tristram Wyatt director of online learning at Oxford, says that in cyberspace, the "connection can be more profound than a real class. The student are actually in the world's hotspots" Like so much on the Internet, Web classes stumbled after being hailed as the next big thing in the late 1990s. The first movers like the London School’s of Economics’ Fathom or NYU Online, failed-losing hundreds of millions of dollars- because students in the West prefer to attend class and parties on a real campus. But online or distance learning is now an established and rapidly growing industry, mainly in Asia and the developing world. Market analysts at IDC predict that the global market that the corporate e-learning will soar from $8 billion last year to $26 billion by 2010. In the United States, 65 percent of graduate school now offer online courses, available to students anywhere in the world. The trend is opening doors for students from small villages in Ethiopia to the back streets of Bangladesh – where tiny Internet cafes are now the portals to first-rate education. In China, delegates from Western online universities, like Scotland’s Interactive University, can be found in small towns trying to snap up students for whom studying abroad would be too expensive. In Pakistan last month, the government teamed up with one of the world’s largest online education providers, U21 Global, based in Singapore, to launch an ad campaign promoting higher education to rural youth. Besides switching focus to the developing world, online universities are working to make virtual classes more engaging. While early efforts simply posted recorded lectures and lecture notes, courses now offer chat rooms hosted by professors, instant-messenger office hours, flashy PowerPoint-style coursework and lectures formatted for iPods. It’s even becoming fun socially, says Derek Conlon, 42, an IT manager at one of the top investment-banking firms in London, who recently got his diploma from Oxford online: “It’s not like what I’ve seen on TV with fraternities, but I made friends with people from all around the world. You’re only an e-mail away.”

Study Shows China as World Technology Leader? Technology indicators show China ahead of the U.S. in technological standing Atlanta (January 24, 2008) —A new study of worldwide technological competitiveness suggests China may soon rival the United States as the principal driver of the world’s economy – a position the U.S. has held since the end of World War II. If that happens, it will mark the first time in nearly a century that two nations have competed for leadership as equals. Chart shows change in technological standing for selected nations from 1993 to 2007. 300 dpi Hi-Res Version The study’s indicators predict that China will soon pass the United States in the critical ability to develop basic science and technology, turn those developments into products and services – and then market them to the world. Though China is often seen as just a low-cost producer of manufactured goods, the new “High Tech Indicators” study done by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology clearly shows that the Asian powerhouse has much bigger aspirations. “For the first time in nearly a century, we see leadership in basic research and the economic ability to pursue the benefits of that research – to create and market products based on research – in more than one place on the planet,” said Nils Newman, co-author of the National Science Foundation-supported study. “Since World War II, the United States has been the main driver of the global economy. Now we have a situation in which technology products are going to be appearing in the marketplace that were not developed or commercialized here. We won’t have had any involvement with them and may not even know they are coming.” Georgia Tech has been gathering the high tech indicators since the mid-1980s, when the concern was which country would be the “next Japan” as a competitive producer and exporter of technology products. The current “HTI-2007” information was gathered for use in the NSF’s biennial report, “Science and Engineering Indicators,” the most recent of which was released January 15. Georgia Tech’s “High Tech Indicators” study ranks 33 nations relative to one another on “technological standing,” an output factor that indicates each nation’s recent success in exporting high technology products. Four major input factors help build future technological standing: national orientation toward technological competitiveness, socioeconomic infrastructure, technological infrastructure and productive capacity. Each of the indicators is based on a combination of statistical data and expert opinions. A chart showing change in the technological standing of the 33 nations is dominated by one feature – a long and continuous upward line that shows China moving from “in the weeds” to world technological leadership over the past 15 years. The 2007 statistics show China with a technological standing of 82.8, compared to 76.1 for the United States, 66.8 for Germany and 66.0 for Japan. Just 11 years ago, China’s score was only 22.5. The United States peaked in 1999 with a score of 95.4. “China has really changed the world economic landscape in technology,” said Alan Porter, another study co-author and co-director of the Georgia Tech Technology Policy and Assessment Center, which conducted the research. “When you take China’s low-cost manufacturing and focus on technology, then combine them with the increasing emphasis on research and development, the result ultimately won’t leave much room for other countries.” The United States and Japan have both fallen in relative technological standing – though not absolute measures – because of the dramatic rise of China and other nations such as the “Asian Tigers:” South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan. Japan has faltered a bit over time, and if the increasingly-integrated European Union were considered one entity instead of 27 separate countries, it would surpass the United States. “We are seeing consistent gains for China across all the criteria we measure,” Newman said. “As a percentage mover relative to everyone else, we have not seen a stumble for China. The gains have been dramatic, and there is no real sense that any kind of leveling off is occurring.” Most industrialized countries reach a kind of equilibrium in the study, moving up slightly in one data set, or down slightly in another. But the study shows no interruptions in China’s advance. Recent statistics for the value of technology products exported – a key component of technological standing – put China behind the United States by the amount of “a rounding error:” about $100 million. If that trend continues, Newman noted, China will shortly pass the United States in that measure of technological leadership. China’s emphasis on training scientists and engineers – who conduct the research needed to maintain technological competitiveness – suggests it will continue to grow its ability to innovate. In the United States, the training of scientists and engineers has lagged, and post-9/11 immigration barriers have kept out international scholars who could help fill the gap. “For scientists and engineers, China now has less than half as many as we do, but they have a lot of growing room,” noted Newman. “It would be difficult for the United States to get much better in this area, and it would be very easy for us to get worse. It would be very easy for the Chinese to get better because they have more room to maneuver.” China is becoming a leader in research and development, Porter noted. For instance, China now leads the world in publications on nanotechnology, though U.S. papers still receive more citations. On the input indicators calculated for 2007, China lags behind the United States. In “national orientation,” China won a score of 62.6, compared to 78.0 for the United States. In “socioeconomic infrastructure,” China rated 61.2, compared to 87.9 for the United States. In the other two factors, China also was behind the U.S., 60.0 versus 95.5 for “technological infrastructure” and 85.2 versus 93.4 for “productive capacity.” China has been dramatically improving its input scores, which portends even stronger technological competitiveness in the future. “It’s like being 40 years old and playing basketball against a competitor who’s only 12 years old – but is already at your height,” Newman said. “You are a little better right now and have more experience, but you’re not going to squeeze much more performance out. The future clearly doesn’t look good for the United States.” Research News & Publications Office Georgia Institute of Technology 75 Fifth Street, N.W., Suite 100 Atlanta, Georgia 30308 USA http://www.gatech.edu/newsroom/release.html?id=1682
