As I have said before on another thread, I like Carney's speech. Are you able to provide more info on Carney himself re your last line?
Carney Says Bankers Must Improve Conduct or Face Tougher Rules
- Collector commented Jun 10, 2015
Yes, it's called 'Playing both sides'. In business this is usually done surreptitiously. The contrary plan has to be to break up the power centres that perpetuate this modus operandi.

IMO, the real offenders who cynically took advantage of the laxness of the system should already be in jail. The fact is, the rules of the game and a general resignation and, at times, willingness of the the rest of us to let them walk, worked in ...
Carney: Building real markets for the good of the people
- Collector commented Jun 10, 2015
Actually, I think the article is very good and addresses many of the structural reforms in financial markets that require attention - including the 'too big to fail' banks. All economic jurisdictions should pay attention. Perhaps one way to deal ...

Not to mention 'zero-hours' contracts which the US is almost sure to see more of in the future. Predictably, as trades unions have had their wings clipped around the world, large corporations have atmost completely dominated and abused the labour ...

To me, this still does not corroborate the claim that he said anything about the dollar.

A filter for individual users wouldn't work. It needs to be a policy decision by FF not to allow tweets at all, or only after moderation by admins based on published guidelines - so we all know what the ground-rules are.

No, no surprise, but has been depressingly 'normal', long before we started to sit up and take more notice. The most depressing thing, however, is that 'we' still tend to treat these types (look up to them, even) as if we still believe they are ...

Hi Lazlo 1 Thanks for your reply and your time. I'm not sure of my ground here, but the scenario you describe would be possible and more likely in a situation where (two grossly) unequal economies have a common currency and capital flows were free ...
Greece needs a second election

I think these guys - the Greeks - seem to be political novices, and will cook their own goose, if they don't wise up and learn when to shut up to the press.
