California's water problems would be nonexistent if they just charged farmers market rates. And had environmental laws that allowed construction of desalination plants.

CA's water reservoirs have more than enough to keep up with their current usage. This 'crisis' is totally overblown, but it serves Moonbeam's purposes in shredding water contracts dating back a century.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

It depends on where the bonds were sold. When Argentina turned into deadbeats, for the fourth or fifth time in 80 years, U.S. courts actually had jurisdiction because the bonds were under written and issued in New York. This has caused them huge legal troubles.Originally posted by Dauphin View PostTry http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

Argentina had to issue them in the US in order to make them dollar denominated. Argentina needed to do that because no one was willing to get paid back in Argentine Pesos.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

Yep. I looked up the reservoir numbers for year over year and they are down about 10 percent from the year before. Crisis? What crisis?It's deflating like a flan in a cupboard.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

What do you want to bet the Greek debt bonds were under written and sold in places like London, Frankfurt, and New York?Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

About 10% are issued under foreign law. Most are Greek law.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

I suspect that the most pressing issue may be the ECB's continuing quiet support of Greek banks. The bonds are bad, but if the ECB pulls the plug then it is game over for Greece."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003Comment

People are pulling money out of greek banks. I think that's the best sign that an exit from the eurozone, or capital controls, is becoming likely. http://www.wsj.com/articles/greek-pr...mit-1434711032If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?
