Capitalism works for you(3)?: We could also have "public service" market

Newark’s Booker Lures Wall Street Millions to City Few Have Seen Bloomberg(Oct 3, 2012)
This is a case that Capitalism/Market economy indeed helps people to improve their conditions.

When people talk of Capitalism and criticize about it, they usually cite how "unjust" of these phenomenons: millions bonus, luxurious mansion,  super cars and excessive spending on meals and clothing.  However, that is only "the surface" of how a group of people exhibit their fortune. These, frnakly speaking, has little to do with Capitalism. Along the course of history, any of the "have-it-all" class would do the same.

Yet, capitalism is about competition, about marketplace, and about how marketplace could be an efficient mechanism to allocate resources. This news also tell us that, capitalism can also be applied in political occassions and do "good" to the public.

Too old to get employed, too young to retired?

This article aims to share two articles, having a very different views on aging.

2012 Sep. 7: BMW never-too-old assembly insures against lost engineers by Christian Wuestner

In crisis time, labor markets are always under the spot light. Of course, lots of talks are on financial system. Yet, to my belief, human, as we see in labor markets, is the only core of economy.

A brief look of London (2)

Bloomberg Report: Occupy London

I recall my conversation with a Englishman in the bar called "The Old Bell Tavern" Before going into the details, I would really recommend this Bar for friends going to London. A interesting part is that they have a  tradition to ring the bell before the bar is going to close.( I think they ring it twice: 30 mins ahead and 1 hour ahead)

European Debt Crisis: Spanish Theater 歐債危機西班牙劇場

I have two reasons to write this article: The first is that, regarding to my love to Catalunya, I feel I shall write something to clarify how situation is over there. The second is that I am so fed up with the questions constantly asked by my Taiwanese friends about European debt crisis. Their arguments are built up by local news, which  only delivered partial facts leading to wrong conclusion.

So, I decide to write this one. Same as other articles: This article is written both in English and Mandarin.
