    Unless something like in Iceland happens western nations are set for long and slow austerity until the living standards of China, Russia, India and other dev nations have caught up. The NWO is upon us.

    I disagree. The German people are being lied to about how much they already on the hook for in terms of Southern European debts. Elections due in 2013 - they will vote for the status quo.

    If it's any consolation, China are really feeling the pinch too :

    China's economy has slowed for a seventh quarter as problems in Europe and the US hurt demand for its goods.

    The annual rate of growth was 7.4% in the third quarter, down from 7.6% in the previous three months.
    But it isn't all bad news:

    However, there were signs that the world's second-biggest economy was now stabilising and rebounding.
    Phew

    It's a bit like the England/Poland match the other night; the game was obviously over but no one (on the European side) wanted to call it.

    What about AussieLong? I find it incomprehensible that he will ever be right about anything. Being Australian you couldn't even trust him to pick a decent Beer.
