This explains a lot.

According to you, income is increased by having the government repeal a tax you didn't pay anyway.

First Ireland, now Spain

So, why can't Greece?

The bored sign was because it was collected. it was also an unjust tax.
It will be replaced with a just one.

I didn't read the link with Spain and Ireland but I know they keep throwing families out of their houses in Spain speedily en mass and with great efficiency.
This hasn't happened here and it will also stop in Spain pretty soon when Podemos win.
It is good to care about the people first the numbers second (or really, not at all)
If this butthurts some people like our dear cha ching, it means we are solodily on the good track.
I will worry when you don't complain.

Maybe one day you will learn that individuals are anecdotes and that if you really want to see how ALL the people are doing, you must pay attention to the numbers. In any case, I no longer trust what Geeece says, but will wait and see what Greece does. As for unjust taxes being replaced with just taxes, let me know when Greece's tax receipts match their projections.

I have no illusion that the vast majority of your comments are completely cluless, so I don't pay attention to you.
If you actually said something that matched reality, I would.
But even then, your end goal is indifferent to me, so meh

IIUC, a CDS isolates all factors that are not part of a "credit event" - i.e. partial or complete default.

Not fully, but at least it substantially reflects the default risk, which is why I told you to use it.

What you miss again is that you claimed that the existence of a positive interest is evidence of default risk. It isn't.

So define evidence of a default risk then.

What? I just said the CDS was sufficient. It also includes an adjusting factor though.

Then the CDS rate is just stronger evidence than positive interest, but positive interest is still some sort of evidence. :

So, if you were completely guaranteed that I would pay you back, you would lend me $1million at 0% interest?

What are the other options?

[pchang]

The other option is to say no. But, if your answer is no, explain why.
