May 15, 2012, the Group of 20 industrialized countries (not for long maybe?) will be meeting in Mexico, in June. Already Mexico and Japan are calling for G-20 members (mainly those of the BRICS: Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) to give the U.S. based International Monetary Fund another $430 billion USD!!!
This is because the European economies are crashing and burning. Italy reported a minus 0.8% GDP for the January to March quarter. That’s three quarters in a row of declines! Spain reported a minus 0.3% GDP, for the second quarter in a row. But Greece reported a huge minus 6.2% GDP!!!
The only “good” news came out of Germany, which reported a stagnant 0.5% GDP. And Germany is supposed to be the economic powerhouse of Europe! Of course main stream western media reporting it as a “bounce back” in the economy, idiots!
Overall, the entire 17 member European Union reported a stagnant 0% GDP for January to March 2012!
To make matters worse, China is reporting that European investment into China has declined for six months in a row! Chinese officials admitted that their country’s explosive economic growth can only be driven by foreign investment (like unAmerican Corporate America shipping U.S. jobs to China).
From January to April 2012, European investment into China dropped 28%.
