America’s Greece:Fixing Puerto Rico Could Provide Answers for Europe
An Essay By Barry Eichengreen

About the Author
UC Berkeley
Barry Eichengreen (born in 1952) is a professor of economics and political science at the University of California, Berkeley.
This is what the professor says in the introduction to his essay:
The Greek crisis could have been stopped years ago if European politicians hadn’t been so stubborn. They should have followed the example set by the United States in dealing with Puerto Rico’s problems.
Here is a link to an article about the despair and agner in Puerto Rico:
Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother,
Mother and Wife of German Descent
I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com

One thought on “Something about Puerto Rico”
I like Ellen Brown’s proposal better – that the ECB apply some of their quantitative easing to Greece. This is how the US addressed $16 trillion of bank debt – they simply created the money on a computer.
The ECB has already embarked on this sort of debt purchasing program. In January, it announced it would purchase 60 billion euros of debt assets per month beginning in March, continuing to at least September 2016, for a total of €1.14 trillion of asset purchases. These assets are being purchased through “quantitative easing” – expanding the monetary base simply with accounting entries on the ECB’s books.
The IMF estimates that Greece needs debt relief of €60 billion – a mere one month of the ECB’s quantitative easing program. The ECB could solve Greece’s problem with a few computer keystrokes.
