International seminar to discuss how to exit the financial crisis announcedHe criticized the conduction of economic policy by Brazilian Central Bank. "The CB is throwing money in the market without taking a specific concern with the change in the economic model, with public investment." Our concern is to analyze the crisis from the perspective of individuals, of the nation, and not from the perspective of the market, because the market heralds want to resolve now what themselves caused, with their bad International seminar to discuss how to exit the financial crisis announced Brazilian Paraná States’ governor Roberto Requião announced, Sunday (9) night in the auditorium of RTVE (Paraná State’s Public TV), that the State Government will sponsor a world seminar at Curitiba, to discuss the economic crisis. He says the biggest obstacle to Brazil overcome the crisis and get strengthened out of it is the Central Bank’s President HenriqHe says the biggest obstacle to Brazil overcome the crisis and get strengthened out of it is the Central Bank’s President Henrique Meirelles, formed by the Bank of Boston, and that will do nothing that would undermine the private banks. Carlos Lessa proposes control of exchange rate for Brazil to overcome the crisis. The economist Carlos Lessa, former rector of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and former president of BNDES – National Bank to Economic and Social Development, proposes control of exchange as the primary measure for Brazil overcome the economic worldwide crisis, responsible for bankruptcy of several banks and even nations such as Iceland and Russia, which are at the verge of a moratorium. Dollar is over, says Carlos LessaTo Lessa, "dollar is over" and it’s necessary that a new "Bretton Woods" establishes new parameters to global economy. Former president of BNDES (National Bank on Economic and Social Development), economist Carlos Lessa swims at counter-current of federal commissioners: identifies immediate risks to Brazilian economy, cause of crisis’ worsening in the United States. No to the Bailout of the Capitalist Speculators!The financial crisis that has been heating up since early 2007 reached the boiling point in late September. Credit markets virtually stopped functioning. A full-blown panic swept stock markets worldwide. The U.S. economy is in the throes of a recession that could turn into a Depression lasting for years. In these dire straits, the Wall Street speculators who set off this crisis are demanding that the government rescue them with a bailout priced at $700 billion. The actual costs will be far higher, a trillion dollars or more. Meanwhile, the Democrats are pushing hardest for the Bush bailout of the banks. Presidential candidate Barack Obama blames "greed" for the crisis on Wall Street (capitalism without greed?) and says there must be no "blank check to Washington" -- meaning he's for putting in a few conditions as window dressing. Following in the Democrats' footsteps, the AFL-CIO labor bureaucrats called a demo for "No Blank Check for Wall Street." Yet no amount of regulation will stop the boom-bust cycle of capitalism. Meanwhile unemployment lines are growing and a million families were thrown out of their homes by bank foreclosures in the last year. While the fat cats, Democrats and bureaucrats are all going for the Bush bailout to prop up U.S. capitalism, revolutionary Marxists oppose this trillion-dollar giveaway to the Wall Street speculators, calling instead for a program of transitional demands leading to the expropriation of the banks and the entire bourgeoisie through workers revolution. Expropriate the Bourgeoisie Through Workers Revolution!No to the Bailout of the Capitalist Speculators!Down with the Dictatorship of Finance Capital!
