Everything has to get worse in order to get better.
My blog is about what's the world facing now. It's good that humanity already knows the answer but the politicians in Europe and in the United States of America are a little slow to understand the problem.
What we need is the skill of China, India or Brazil to speak with one mouth.
We need unity, consensus like in the Dutch polder model.

Thoughts
A week ago I had a meeting with the Works Council. We talked about matters I can't remember immediately. That means how important it is. In fact the decisions are already made by management. Management of a Municipality controlled by politics. The Works Council can only slowdown the process. In fact that is what we did.
The Council has to agree with a proposal of management to reform some departments. Management gave us a 50 pages report which doesn't give a clear view of what the management wants. That's why the Councils chairman decided that a new brief report of 2 pages has to be sent to us. Not a 50 pages bookwork.
After one month of being part of the Works Council I can say that it's a lot of paperwork, a lot of invested hours, even time outside office hours and not much effort. The only advantage till now is that I see more the organisation as a whole.
Of course I know the organogram, but now I can fill it with real people. And they all got the same problems, like the vertical and horizontal mobility of people to other functions. Management is supposed to know that the quality of an organisation depends also the learning possibilities of the employees.
My employer uses people for it's short term benefit. The benefit should be mutual on the long term. So there should be development programs for every person and not for a few.
So there must be more possibilities to grow. One of the goals of management is that young people should take the municipality into consideration as a employer. The way it works now isn't one to think about my employer.
If management only think in short term benefits they are like the banking system and their management. Greedy people, only thinking about their own sake. But the Dutch and the British Government know what to do with their banks.

George Soros
Seems to be a filantrophe.
He's written a lot of books about the imperfect economy, about the imperfection of the financial marketsystem and the imperfections of the actors on those markets. The latest book (2008) is tittled the international creditcrisis, subtittle the future of the financial markets.
There must be change of that global financial system. We're not in the day's of Bretton Woods anymore. Europe is almost united in the EU and the far east plays another important role. The world isn't anymore what it used to be.
The EU has come to an agreement (under chairmanship of French president Sarkozy) on climate change, the credit crisis, the Irish no previous this year and other things.
While googling on some international English news about the EU-top, I found an artivle of Martin Kettle in the Guardian of 12 December 2008.
You should know that there are some tensions between the Anglo-American (Great Britain) and Rhineland bookkeepers (France, Germany, the Netherlands, etcetera) which model is adequate dealing with the present crisis. I think none of those models because of the reflexivity of the markets. Soros explained that in a 1998 book, tittled The crisis of global economy, subtittle the downfall of the free world.
The person who makes a model which explains the problems we face now, can earn a lot of money when he also knows the shortcomings of his model (because everything is liable to error as Soros said)

Trivia
Do you know that Ian Fleming created James Bond based on the Dutch Prince Bernhard van Lippe-Biesterfeld.
I googled on Prince Bernhard and found this paragraph... The Bilderberger group, founded after World War II by Britain’s genocidal Prince Philip and the Nazi SS Prince Bernard of the Netherlands, represents one of the key nodal points where the international finance oligarchs meet under US-UK leadership to ratify consensus on larger strategic initiatives. It was for example the Bilderberger meeting held near Stockholm in Saltsjøbaden, Sweden in the spring of 1973 which secured the final consensus for the Royal Dutch Shell plans for the October 1973 Middle East War and the attendant “Arab” oil boycott, which looted Japan and Europe and imposed global austerity to stabilize the US dollar and the Atlanticist banking system. That financiers’ staged oil boycott was the 1973 version of today’s “peak oil” hoax. read more on this site
if you put it in today's context you know nothing has changed and that the western banking system has failed and that the failure goes back to times just after World war II
