Why global economy is not functioning well?
A. Purpose:
- Purpose of this memo is to inform you of my conclusions about one of culprits, which are disturbing invisible hands and causing financial crisis in global market.
B. Background:
- Violation of fundamental premises of Economic Theory:
As you know, Economic theory only works under the certain premises such as no restrictions of money flow (free movement), etc.
China is violating a couple of fundamental economic premises as follows:
1. 2 way tactics of holding Money flow in China. (Protectionism)
A. Chinese GEN’s Exchange rate fixation. (violation of free trade)
B. Restrictions of taking out money from China. (violation of free movement)
A. Chinese GEN’s Exchange rate fixation. (violation of free trade)
By setting Chinese Gen at exceptionally low rate and making labor costs as cheap as possible, China gained lots of factory type jobs and succeeded to increase sales as a nation. (Increase of Money in-flow into China)
B. Restrictions of taking out money from China. (violation of free movement)
By placing upper limit of taking out money from China (20,000 GEN), China is trying to hold money flow within Chinese market.
When the above two practices combined, it becomes protectionism of Chinese market.
In other words, China is trying to grow and prosper Chinese economy at the expense of global economy in my opinion.
Chinese economy used to be weak and insignificant in the past.
Now Chinese economy is very strong and significant in global economy having the second highest GNP in the world next to the U.S.
2. Function of global currency:
Of course number one global currency is U.S. dollars, followed by Euro and YEN.
What happened about Chinese GEN?
Chinese GEN is not qualified as global currency due to the following reasons:
3. Restrictions and fixation of Chinese GEN.
Since Chinese GEN is not free flow currency and we do not trust Chinese GEN, Chinese GEN is not functioning as a global currency.
In other words, we do not wish to keep Chinese GEN as reserve money since we cannot globally move it as free as we wish.
This is one of the reasons why Japanese YEN is so strong these days.
The U.S., Europe, and Japan lost lots of factory type jobs while keeping out of job workers at home. (Decreased sales with the same O/H. => bad economy and financial trouble)
The U.S. and Europe has spent lots of money to stimulate its economy before fixing Chinese trap as mentioned above.
Once money goes into China, it is hard to come back and thus money is gradually accumulated in China.
China prospers and economy of the U.S. and Europe gradually shrink since money will not come back from China very easily.
Since Japan has not spent as much money for economic stimulation nor extend money supply as much as the U.S. and Europe, Japan still has some room to take some actions, I guess.
Although China has the second biggest impact to global economy as a single nation, Chinese GEN is useless as a global currency and thus people reluctantly keep YEN as relatively safe reserve money.
4. Conclusion:
China is creating lots of current issues in a way of protectionism.
We should fix this issue of China’s protectionism first; otherwise, most of our efforts will be soaked up by China.
The U.S. government tried to fix it once in the past alone.
Since this is a global issue, please raise this issue at either G20 or United nations and try to solve it altogether once more.

Three Culprits and a Shadow in global economy
Three Culprits and a Shadow in global economy
.
What is wrong and what to do about it?
A. Purpose:
- Purpose of this memo is to macro-economically identify culprits, which are disturbing invisible hands and causing financial crisis in global market.
B. Background:
- Violation of fundamental premises of Economic Theory:
As you know, Economic theory only works under the certain premises such as abundant resources, perfect information flow, no restrictions of flow (free movement), etc.
I learned it from macro-economic Prof., Dr. Auerbach at UCR.
The followings are major factors which violate fundamental economic premises:
1. Oil Money
2. Fund Money
3. Chinese Money
1. Oil Money (violation of abundant resources):
Since oil is no longer abundant; in other words, oil resources are limited, demand-supply function does not work correctly.
Oil price will keep going up endlessly unless substitution energy or replacement of oil shows up.
This is not economically healthy situation but we do not have a solution for it so far.
I would say that establishment of a global government will help solve this issue somewhat.
2. Fund Money ( monopoly):
As economics major students know, where there exists monopolistic condition, healthy competitions are restricted and thus this is the violation of fundamental economic premise.
Right now Fund Money has too much bargaining power, price- influencing power, and economy of scale, there will be no-fair game in financial market any more.
Fund Money always wins.
Fund Money should be divided into smaller pieces, which is the same case as monopolistic companies in business world under the Anti-Monopoly laws.
By the way, Anti-Monopoly laws are not working well globally since global anti-monopoly laws do not exist.
We should create global Anti-Monopoly laws ASAP and apply them to both fund money and global companies.
3. Chinese Money (violation of free economy or laissez fair.):
Exchange rate fixation by Chinese government is hindering healthy cycles of free economy.
What is happening right now is as follows:
China has become a factory site for global companies.
Many global companies moved out factories from domestic site to China.
1. As a result, lots of factory jobs have been created in China.
In China, employment goes up, Chinese people get richer, Government’s Tax income goes up, and etc.
2. On the other hand, in industrialized countries, many factory jobs have gone.
Accordingly, unemployment goes up, total income earned by residence goes down, and Government’s tax income goes down and thus country itself gets poorer, and starts having financial difficulties.
Since labor forces do not move globally as opposed to domestic cases, invisible hands do not work and thus situation will not get better.
A. Job lost deflation.
This is opposite to wage-push inflation.
In Japan many factory type jobs have been lost to China, Japanese income and buying power went down, Japanese demand cheaper goods.
Since Japanese buying power got weakened and never recovered due to lost jobs, even prices of goods go down, sales still go down.
Job lost deflation begins and it gets worse every day.
First of all, exchange rate literally decides costs or prices of labor forces in global market.
Since China fixes exchange rate, invisible hands do not work.
In other words, in order to make Japan’s situations better globally, Japan should lower its prices, which can be done through devaluation of Japanese YEN against Chinese GEN.
According to recent newspapers in Japan, both U.S. and EU have a sign of deflation, which is similar to that of Japan.
China’s exchange rate fixation is not only violation of free economy but also very dangerous knock-out pricing strategy.
China should bear global responsibility as a member of global free economy.
Please imagine caterpillar of a tractor.
If one joint of caterpillar got fixated, it could stop movement of entire caterpillar.
The same thing is happening now in global economy, major countries such as U.S., EU, and even Japan try to ignite engine of global economy, and it always ends in China because of its currency fixation practice, in my opinion.
China should be ashamed of it because everybody suffers including China in the end.
4. Overpopulation – a shadow:
According to U.S. Census Bureau, we have more than 6.8 billion population in the world as of 2010.
More population means more competition.
Due mainly to increased competition and getting scarce resources, we have issues of oil money and fund money, I guess.
We should try to stop increasing trend of world population now.
How can we do that?
When China and India combined, they have 2.5 billion people (1,330,141,295+ 1,173,108,018 = 2,503,249,313), which is about 36% of world population, oh my GOD.
My proposal is to establish a global government and do something about it ASAP.

Prescription for the current situation
Hello, I am Hiroshi Morita living in Tokyo, Japan.
I would like to say something since I tend to believe that I came up with simple solutions for the current situation as follows:
A. Purpose:
- Purpose of this memo is to try to improve current situation for everyone on the earth.
B. Background:
I wondered why world economy started dysfunctioning these days? Why invisible hands do not work well?
I came up with the following several reasons/causes.
In other words, we just need to handle a couple of real causes to improve current situation in my opinion as follows:
1. Assumption of Economic Theory has been changed:
One of assumption of Adam Smith’s economic theory is abundant resources while oil resources are no longer abundant.
This factor contributes dysfunctioning of invisible hands.
a. We need substitution energy as everyone is aware of.
b. Although substantial amount of money flow goes into oil producing countries, money is not re-invested in an ideal way in my opinion.
2. Issue of Overpopulation:
Issue of global warming is mainly caused by overpopulation in my opinion.
Since majority of CO2 is created by activities of human beings, if # of population is reduced, CO2 emission will be reduced accordingly.
3. Globalization:
Anti-trust, anti-monopoly laws are not functioning well globally, since we do not have global regulations for it.
4. Monopoly:
Both fund money and oil money has too much influential power in the market.
As economic students know, where there exists monopolistic condition, invisible hands do not work well.
C. My prescription for the current situation:
As you can see from the above stated, one very important thing is missing, which is a global government.
Unless we establish a global government, we will not be able to solve the current issues since those are all global issues.
1. Issue of overpopulation:
China once conducted one kid policy but it did not succeed because China did it alone.
If we try to implement 2 kids policy globally, it should work.
In other words, we should keep birth rate less than one in order to control population, in my opinion.
2. Issue of monopoly:
We can control monopolistic conditions if we establish a global government and enforce global anti-trust anti-monopoly regulations.
3. Issue of oil money:
Some percentage of Oil money should be spent on R&D of substitution energy in my opinion. Somebody should work together with oil producing countries.
With respect to Dubai’s case, I do not believe that Dubai went through Business procedures such SWOT analysis, pilot marketing research, and test marketing, etc.
As you can tell, this is theoretically very simple but extremely difficult to implement but we have to do it anyway if we want to improve our life.
I hope that this message reaches to Mr. President Obama because he is the only hope we have got in my opinion who can implement the above stated.
To be realistic, since we do not have a global government yet, the above stated issues should be handled at G20 in my opinion.
What do you think?
Thank you very much for reading this far and we need your help.
Please pass this memo to those who can help us in your opinion.
Best regards,
