Default Europe creating risk-free bonds

Well, for banks, anyhow. Risk will shift from banks and other private creditors and onto the backs of European taxpayers.

Quote:
European governments may ease provisions in a planned permanent rescue fund requiring bondholders to share losses in sovereign bailouts, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble suggested.

Schaeuble signaled that Germany may retreat from demands that private creditors contribute to rescues in exchange for European treaty amendments toughening rules on budget oversight.

European efforts to speed the setup of the 500 billion-euro ($662 billion) European Stability Mechanism from its planned mid-2013 debut have lost momentum as Germany and the Netherlands resisted pleas by France, Spain, Portugal and Ireland to drop its bondholder-loss provisions.

I wonder if that transfer of risk action is what all the Capitalists on Wall Street are oinking about today? They seem so excited. DJI up 300.

Vote for less corporate campaign and lobby influence, more Joe and Josephine Sixpack influence.

Stop voting! Occupy!

Seriously, OWS has changed more in two months than two decades of voting have.
