...they quickly paid off. Over the many deals, BVG received cash payments from the American investors totaling €68.9 million, or about $90.6 million at current exchange rates. BVG in turn paid the American investors monthly rent to use the equipment, a return the Americans enhanced with that big tax break. For its part, BVG used the money it derived from the deals to pay down debt, which has saved it €35 million ($46 million) in interest payments. It was a shell game of sorts, but everyone made out - except, of course, the U.S. taxpayers, who were unwittingly subsidizing...
...they’ll first have to beat University of Kentucky in a few days to secure a spot. Nick, the men’s captain, is not prone to exuberant flourishes of emotion, but he whistles and growls, low and off-key, to a Johnny Cash track blaring from the car speakers. He is confident of a victory against Kentucky and hopeful—perhaps even sure—of success at the tournament.

Desperate for cash, U.S. financial institutions have been liquidating foreign assets and repatriating the funds, pushing up the value of the dollar. As that process plays out, a key support of the dollar's value could be removed. Currency markets are clearly jittery. In late March, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner sent the dollar tumbling when he said he was "actually quite open" to China's proposal for a greater role for SDRs. The dollar lost 1.3% against the euro within 10 minutes...
...deeply flawed before the evaluation process has been finished. The Administration wants to set measurements for whether large American private banks need to raise money. If 10% unemployment is a critical determining factor, many of the biggest financial firms will need extra capital. In the current credit environment, that cash is highly unlikely to come from any source other than the U.S. government. In that case, the sums needed for the TARP and other programs will almost certainly increase. And, the amount could easily be several hundred billion more dollars. Rising unemployment will also move the budget deficit higher...
