India Suffers from Inflation and its not going Down Anytime soon

India is currently suffering from inflation back in Jan. inflation reached from 8.23% to 9.35% later it went back down to 8.23% and as economists began to get exited that it was going back down it went back up to 8.9% it  according to the International Monetary Fund it does not look like it will go down again but on the contrary it will go back up.  Such inflation will only be hurt those small businesses,  it sad how India has finally started to come up in the economy side and going up.  I just hope that whatever economic boosts the government decides to grant the money does disappear by the the scamming political parties and leaders that exists.

Full Veil Band for Everyone

After years of argument and debate in Europe on full face veil was banned in France,  causing so much controversial with the Muslim community for those complete devout women who are accustomed to wearing the full veil or niqab. The law is not specific to just Muslims with niqab but to all full face covering  in public places. Many people believe that this is just another way for the government to discriminate against a religion that seems extreme.  To me it seems perhaps a bit discriminating but still safe, many extreme groups have benefited from this religion's custom to hurt others.  Being able to see the face of the person next to you on the bus or train to make sure they are not some extremist ready to hurt other for their crazy cause.

Japan's Disaster Boosting the Economy

So history has actually proven that every time Japan has had a major disaster recovery has boosted their economy, and according to the World Banks this time wont be any different.  Especially since this disaster has caused a triple disaster, earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster. It's almost like a stimulus package, as depressing as it seems it is amazing how something like this actually helps. To me Worlds Banks are just way to exited with the thought how once again Japan is going to depend on outside help.  And every country that has sent relief is just waiting in line for those big contracts to come, so ya I stand by my belief nobody anymore does anything "good" or "helps" without expecting something in return especially when you are the bigger winner.

China's Perfect Economy Not so Perfect

With China as the second largest Economy in the world the pressure is really starting to catch up in their own backyard. With inflation reaching up to 4.9%, the Chinese government is struggling  to keep it under control, the public is really starting to feel the pressure as food prices go up by 11%. How will China stay on the top without there being such painful consequences? China is going to have to forget about the worlds Economy and branching out for a while. After resenting and making fun of the US for trying to fix the world's economy China is starting to fall in the same pattern lets just hope they don't end up in the same black hole.

Egypt's Economy is Run by it's Military

So with the new changes that Egypt is trying to implement it's main source of Economy might be the hardest after kicking out their President-Dictator.  In The New York Times we got a broader picture of what type of economy Egypt has, all ran by the military were they have divisions that "make television sets, jeeps, washing machines, wooden furniture and olive oil, as well as bottled water (...) named after a general's daughter, Safi."
Some scholars believe that if change is to really happen in Egypt military based business's have got to go in order to obtain a Free- Market Economic Reform, well the military is sure not hiding how displeased they are with this idea, and are showing they will do anything to keep their business interests in check.  They showed this by accusing of corruption two advocates of economic openness Youssef Boustros-ghali and Rachid Mohamed.  This really makes me wonder who was really pulling the strings when Mubarak was "running things"and if the military continues to interfere there wont be much change happening, i wont take any credit from the military that the this "revolution" has yet to get completely out of had but they have as much to lose as did Mubarak. So I wonder when will military's true intentions will come out and how far will they go to protect their interests?

Media's Impact in Modest Clothes in Baghdad

In Baghdad there is a store that sell's the "proper" clothes for women, but as a display the owner of the shop put a few female mannequins with blond hair and bright colored scarfs covering their heads loosely, the clothes were very moderate by western standards. This whole displays come with a message “Whoever fills his eyes with the forbidden, on judgment day God will fill them with fire.” At first when I started reading this I thought it was an extreme way to send out a message of a families man frustration with today's media.  But of course it does not have anything to do with true values, all I got from this was how weak men can truly be this whole demonstration was because with women not being forced to wear the veil. All they are worried about is women wearing clothes that will inflame men’s imaginations. Instead of worrying for themselves and how they can do things themselves they want everything the easy way.  which unfortunately we cant close the media so my only thing to them is Suck it Up, and get your heads out of the Gutter.
