Economist's view on us bailout

Economist's view on us bailout

Global financial crisis have forced the wonder that future is not going to be what it was thought to be few years before when there was rapid development and growth in all the sectors including finance industry. Current financial crisis seems too long and intensified with bad news coming from all the sides and that too every day. There seems to be just no end, but the government is trying to stabilise the situation and it always just tries to decrease the fire because to get rid of this kind of fire seems too difficult to achieve.

Economists sees this bailout with a very critical eye and rightly so because this bailout has all the money for the Wall Street and nothing for the citizens. Well, now you must be thinking that it's for the people only and it would eventually make its way to your pockets only, right? In that case, just wait and watch whether you get any kinds of benefits from that bailout or not.

It is evident from the bailout plan that the money will reflect in the books of the big names and nothing in your and my bank. Now, let's talk about bank, banks are getting money so that they stabilise, but by the time they do, you will still owe them money and only benefit you will get is the longer duration of repayment or may be sell of your mortgages. It's not said here that there is no benefit but all the benefits would be illiquid and the main focus of the bank bailout plan is only the big names and banks and not the general mass.

The above is just an opinion, flashing of which is actually tried. Even though the money is coming in to the banks, the markets are still plunging, the negative sentiment along with fear of after effect still prevails and all this comes at the price of 700 billion US $. This is the reason economist's view on US bailout is very critical and sceptic until the results are seen with smiles on the citizen's face, that it really did affect their daily lives.

There are so many incorporations which are cutting down on their long list of employees and people are not able to repay their loans and neither they are able to get a nice job with decent pay package. GDP is decreasing and the earnings per households are not enough to support the debt or loan repayment schemes taken previously.

Housing and infrastructure prices are looming and this industry is seeing its worst ever phase to retract or help in solving the crisis. Too many peaks in all the sectors like derivatives, oil, credit, FII, fed and treasury manipulation, mall rental, automobile manufacturing etc and above all presidential incompetence will only lead to the down fall as it is rightly said that anything that goes up has to come down.
