Follow on Google News | Real Causes for US Financial Meltdown and Global RecessionA comparison study between the great depression and this global recession, the author concluded the extreme inequality in capital market and inappropriate government economic policies are real causes.
By: Jonathan Wang 1. Two major economic expansions led to two episodes of extreme inequalities in the United States. Both ended in severe economic crisis. 2. When the share of total income going to top 10% group approached 50% in 1929 and again 2007, the capital market crashed in the United States. Does this suggest 50% is a threshold separating expansion and turmoil? Should we develop an inequality index as an key indicator measuring health of the capital market? Please debate. 3. It is the extreme inequality that had led house market to crash in 2007 and most likely in 1920's. 4. Government's improper interventions in the capital market before both episodes of crisis had accelerated the extreme inequalities and ultimately intensified the crisis. 5. It is author's opinion that government must focus on stabilization rather than expansion in any economic crisis. The most effective measure to stabilize a down turning capital market is direct investment. In order to do so, raising taxes on top income groups becomes necessary. Such tax increases can also reduce inequalities so to prevent bubbling economy from happening.
