Time.com People Fortune EW Economists: Rising personal debt poses growing threat BALDWIN, Georgia (CNN) As the U.S. Federal Reserve Board is expected to cut a key interest rate Tuesday, experts warn that increasing personal debt among U.S. consumers poses a severe threat to the nation's economy. U.S. consumers who once saved an average of 8 percent of their take-home pay only a few years ago now spend about 1 percent more than they earn. Payments on personal debt for such things as credit cards and student loans used to consume less than 6 percent of after-tax income. Now that figure is at nearly 8 percent, the highest level in more than a decade, and still rising. "What we have here is a dangerous mix of fast-growing debt and fast-rising unemployment that could quickly put the brakes on consumer spending," said John Lonski, chief economist, Moody's Investor Services. Making things worse is the fact that more families are falling behind on credit card payments. The nation's delinquency rate has grown steadily to well over 5 percent, more than one account in every 19.

The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), composed of academic economists from Harvard, Stanford and other universities, joined a chorus of economists and investors who were saying that a recession had already begun. The group posted its decision on its Web site. It ruled that the long expansion ended in March and the nation's tenth recession since the end of World War II began at the same time. The declaration means the longest expansion lasted exactly 10 years. The previous record for uninterrupted economic growth was set in the 1960s, a period of eight years and 10 months lasting from February 1961 to December 1969.

The scale and scope are so big, we are just trying to take it in. But there are bigger things at stake than profits and losses Nick Parsons Commerzbank While they say they cannot even begin to quantify the economic cost, some expect the US to take measures including a military attack to try to rebuild faith in the world's largest economy. The US economic slowdown may also be deepened by the attack on New York City, the country's financial capital, whose bread-and-butter industries were already hurting. The main objective, in the short-term will be to re-open the main US stock markets. The American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq announced on Tuesday evening that they would remain closed throughout Wednesday.

[Back To List of Economists] John Kenneth Galbraith John Kenneth Galbraith: Affluent Society The New Industrial State Galbraithian Philosophy: ... [TOC] John Kenneth Galbraith John Kenneth Galbraith was born in Ontario. His first degree was earned in his home province, and, then, turning to the United States to continue with his studies, he was to eventually receive a Ph.D. in 1934 from the University of California. Galbraith was to teach at both California and Princeton before joining the faculty at Harvard in 1948. During WWII he was in charge of wartime price control. It is interesting to note that "Galbraith's attitude towards price and wage control is not really central to his position." During the Kennedy years he was an ambassador to India. Galbraith's works include: The Great Crash The Affluent Society The Liberal Hour Made to Last (1964), and The New Industrial State [TOC] Affluent Society Galbraith's first big seller was his Affluent Society (1958). It most likely contributed (and likely to a significant degree) to the "war on poverty," being a disastrous government spending policy first brought on by Kennedy and Johnson. This policy (both in the United States and in Canada) not only brought on ruinous levels of debt but split the country in to those who have the jobs and those who do not. "The war on poverty of which so much has been made since then has been able to make excellent careers and many thousands of civil servants of academic people who have been able to do study after study on poverty."

73. 09.16.98 - $72.7 Billion: Smoking’s Annual Health Care Cost The total cost of caring for people with health problems caused by cigarette smoking is about $72.7 billion per year, according to health economists at the University of California. You expect a figure of this magnitude for the impact of smoking on health care, when you consider that one in five deaths per year is due to cigarette use, said the study's author. Smoking accounted for 11.8 percent of all medical expenditures in the U.S. http://www.berkeley.edu/news/berkeleyan/1998/0916/smoking.html

Chancellor Berdahl Teaches Freshman Seminar This Fall Regular Features News Briefs $72.7 Billion: Smoking's Annual Health Care Cost By Patricia McBroom, Public Affairs posted September 16, 1998 The total cost of caring for people with health problems caused by cigarette smoking counting all sources of medical payments is about $72.7 billion per year, according to health economists at the University of California. The figure is almost six times higher than the cost per year of smoking-related Medicaid payments alone, reported last spring by the same Berkeley and UCSF economists. The new total estimate "translates the adverse health effects (of smoking) into dollar terms, the universal language of decision makers," said t he analysis published today in Public Health Reports . All payments made in 1993 by Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Administration medical programs, military medical programs, private health insurance companies and out-of-pocket payments were analyzed for that fraction of illness caused by cigarette smoking. By comparison, the March report counted only the cost of smoking-related Medicaid payments $12.9 billion that year. "I am not surprised by these costs," said Leonard Miller, an economist and professor in the School of Social Welfare at Berkeley, who is first author on the report.

NEW YORK (Reuters) Forecasters have once again upgraded their forecasts for U.S. economic growth, according to a survey by the Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank. The quarterly survey of 32 forecasts found analysts now expect the economy to grow by 4.6 percent, up from the previous estimate of 4.3 percent. At the same time, expectations for both unemployment and inflation have been revised down. The survey's forecast compares with the Federal Reserve's own estimate that the economy will grow between 4.5 and 5 percent in 2004, according to semiannual forecasts released earlier this month. The Philadelphia Fed survey also found forecasters have lowered their expectations for job gains, to about 91,000 jobs per month this year from 104,000 per month in the last survey. The survey covers such diverse forecasters as Wall Street economists at JP Morgan Chase and Lehman Brothers; Verizon Communications; Fannie Mae; academic economists and private forecasting firms such as Economy.com.

But the bad news is that they feel the world economy was pretty much headed in that direction anyway. Over the last few days, the financial community has been attempting to compute the economic costs of the attacks. While most predict that they will take a hefty bite out of economic output over the next few quarters, many also feel a vigorous clean-up effort has the potential to turn things around quickly. That won't, however, do much for the global economy, whose underlying troubles have been all-but forgotten amid the rubble. Indeed, the main economic effect of the attacks will be to multiply the scary number of imponderables already blurring the outlook. The US will slump...
