The committee members, however, in the bill - sponsored Representatives of the USA.

Proposals of the Stump

The race for president has a new hot topic: what is to the economy of credit Crunch. And the candidates, as usual, disagreed.

The former senator John Edwards (DN.C.) wants to inform the owners’ excesses of mortgage debt in bankruptcy “and create a large Home Relief funds, to avoid foreclosures.

Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) on the other hand, it is eager to avoid a large bailout expensive, and perhaps to reduce and using only the borrower, have been put on loan by donors.

During recent weeks, markets at home, mortgages and other types of debts are frozen, and millions of homeowners have begun to fear he is not in a position of its monthly payments. Securities markets, shops wild as a consequence, financial monitoring, and authorities have amounted to assuage many owners and investors.

Sensing an opportunity to connect with voters on an issue important to their futures, presidential candidates have collapsed from a multitude of rules for these woes, with most Democrats propose solutions aggressive.

Edwards and Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill.) opted for the creation of a fund by the federal government to help homeowners refinancing their mortgages to avoid partitioning. Edwards has not said, especially where money for the Fund would. Obama said spokesman Bill Burton thinks Obama, the Fund should pay part of sanctions on lenders, acted irresponsibly and committed fraud. ”

Edwards is also a family and Savings Commission for consumer protection and consolidate what he calls a “crazy Quilt” of the federal ordinance.

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (DN.Y.) is more reticent in its reaction. She recommended that borrowers more “face-to-face financial advice on the risks and the mortgage that the government, more truth in lending” as “Plain talk, no-fine-print” : Data to the new owner., Like other candidates, including Senator Christopher J. Dodd (D-Conn.), would also be more Low-Cost Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loans available to buyers at home.

Dodd, most tedious number of proposals and the greatest opportunity to implement. As chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, it works, the group that oversees housing markets and Home Buying rules. He made a leap this week by the burden of nation the two highest authorities of financial regulation - Ben S. Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve, Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. - it runs about this.

Dodd, the FHA for more credit insurance, who need it. It also put an end to penalties for early payment Subprime mortgages. And he, like all other Democrats, to finance the mortgage giant Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy more mortgages for their portfolio, which inject liquidity needed in the verendende sector.

Chairman of Republican candidates have been less activist in its response to the tightness of credit. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, said a spokesman for the government must punish the “bad actor,” the simplification process mortgages, so that people know what their credit, and ensure that regulators a better monitoring of mortgages.

The former mayors of New York, Rudolph W. Giuliani seems even less likely, press for a broad government intervention. He warned that policy makers in Washington rather exaggerated and in this way more harm than good. On CNBC, Giuliani said, “Let’s get us through this first, then take a look back and see what can no longer be required.” He added: “I think most of the more transparency, more information should be added to the system.

Sue motorists oil giants

Think gas is expensive? It is even more expensive hot summer days. Essence expansion where temperatures are rising. This means that motorists receive less energy from a gallons so-called “hot fuel” as a cold.

If Brent Donaldson, owner of a restaurant in Kansas City, Mo., discovered that the beginning of this year, he joined hundreds of consumers in more than a dozen countries complain, oil and gas companies, retailers, has been denounced, overworked billion.

“The consumer is always against the table and not to consider fair treatment,” says Donaldson. He says he spends $ 60 a week filling his Acura.

Appeals to assert that rising temperatures gasoline detriment of consumers between 3 and 9 cents per gallon at the pump extra.

The dispute must be strength in the oil industry to install gas pumps, temperature compensation.

Drivers of heavy vehicles and motorists in seven countries, including California, Delaware and New Jersey, presented the first of more than 20 costumes end of last year. Since then, complaints have been filed in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Louisiana, New Mexico, Nevada, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia.

Dan Gilligan, President of oil, Head of Marketing Association of America, provides that appeals fail, because they claim, fraud, who said he had not taken place. He disputé billion estimating costs for consumers.

“There are a lot of misinformation, human beings are advising,” he said. “You have no idea what the temperature of the nozzle. We need facts, not Hype. ”

The legal drama deployed hundreds of years in the historic centres of oil and gas industry competitively priced scientific and mathematical expert testimony on both sides. The price of natural gas was established on the basis since the early 1920, in a formula that measures taken by a gallon of gas, if it’s 60 degrees, according to court documents filed by motorists.

According to estimates by industry and government leaders, a gallon of gas at 60 degrees measures 231 cubic inches. Consumers buy 231 cubic inches of gas per gallon, regardless of its temperature, so that, if the gas expands in the heat, the amount of energy per gallon to prevent falls.

The industry has made a habit of price adjustments to temperature for wholesalers, not consumers, motorists’ court claims.

The appeals were last month, the Federal Court in Kansas and linked to U.S. District Judge Kathryn Vratil to monitor, is preliminary. More than 100 accused are in costumes, titans of the oil industry Exxon Mobil, Chevron and retailers, including Wal-Mart, QuikTrip and 7-Eleven.

The applicants are hundreds of motorists, as Donaldson and long-distance is concerned, drivers of trucks and other commercial pilots.

The problem has also attracted the attention of Congress, which plans to adopt provisions on how the gas costs. A House subcommittee report released last month concluded that consumers pay 1.5 billion U.S. dollars for the premium “hot fuel” this summer alone.

The National Conference on Weights and Measures, a member organization of 2400, written standards of weights and measures on the market, the issue at a meeting next week.

Roosevelt period the USA

What followed, the USA has seen a large rise of the mass of workers and oppressed peoples, the rebels almost a character. The capitalist class, under the auspices of the Roosevelt administration, has in the mantle of liberalism, appear to support the increased power of workers and citizens’ rights, or even a few promises, but only promises. The Roosevelt administration preempted the struggle of workers and oppressed and people here who have created a new liberalism.

Roosevelt’s program when he ran in the first year 1932 was not so different from Hoover’s, ie, a Reagan or Bush. But under the effects of the collapse of the banking system and the closure of factories and shops, Welfare many innovations have been legally in Europe, decades ago have been implemented under the Act l ‘hotel Roosevelt.

The collapse of the global capitalist system has come in an era of liberalism, the USA, Europe, the Liberals phase has been exhausted, bankers and industrialists (some of the USA) supports the fascist movements as Insurgent against the masses in France, Spain, Germany and Italy.

Regarding the development of capitalism in Europe, we can see that in their early phase, when the system is stable and grows, it was more amenable, under pressure from workers, a major liberal reforms. It appeared then an integral part of the capitalist system. The collapse of capitalism in depression showed that it is a concept totally false.

In the USA, Roosevelt in 1937 against the militancy of the labour movement in the small steel strike, when he said “ a plague on both your houses.”The Supreme Court as a representative of the more conservative wing of the capitalist class, then cancelled the main aspects of Roosevelt’s welfare program with the name of “New Deal”. It was then that the USA has begun the reconstruction of industry - not on the basis of the old structure of capitalism, but by the transformation of large industrial and technological equipment the U.S. military in a fortress , A trend that has since few interruptions and has no end in sight.

The liberalism and Marxism

Marxists differ from liberals in a fundamental way. The Liberals want a reform of the system, while Marxist try to remove them. Marxism has demonstrated that liberalism is a historic phase in the evolution of the capitalist system and their alternates with periods of severe reaction. Marxists are constantly struggling with liberalism as a current of political thought.

However, Marxists and liberals often find themselves in the same camp in a number of important issues. Both can be the same manifestations of protest poverty, unemployment, homeless people, police brutality and racist attacks against oppressed peoples.

Of course, it is the duty of every part of the working class to work with all progressive currents in the struggle for the mobilization of the masses against the political reaction.

The position of liberals, however, is that poverty, racism, or registration of most wars - as the current struggle for Kuwait and Iraq - is the result of bad policy, which could be corrected by a hotel newly elected government.

Your voice can betray you

It is time a tool and hearing honour a staple of film noir: Lie-detector test load or discharge.

But these tests do not need someone to strapping with a machine. Indeed, they may not require the subject of the presence - or awareness - for everyone. And whose use is growing well on criminal investigations.

Increasingly, Lie detector using voice analysis tests of stress, a technology that has existed for decades but has gained in popularity because the software in his heart remains evolved.

“It can really be done anywhere,” said Detective Pat Kemper of Springfield Township Police Department in Ohio, he said, voice-based tests in question, thousands of suspects over the past ten years. “It can be done by phone on a disc. It can be done face down. You can use it for everything. ”

In fact, their applications in the crackdown, supporters of voice technology-based see their usefulness in all that telemarketing Match Making. In the United Kingdom, a growing number of insurance companies were to screen telephone claims in the hope of the fight against fraud - a goal they say have been made, both in the detection of fraud and deterrence. One insurer, Admiral, says 25 percent of the auto-theft claims have been withdrawn since it began with the system a year ago.

But the reliability of the technology is still debated, and their migration from the interrogation of space in call centres, fears concerning the possible effects on privacy. Voice analysis of this type, after all, can easily be done without the loudspeakers placed at the disposal of knowledge. Now, since it is used in the insurance sector, for example, concerns, as a suspect likely to prejudice a right customer for subsequent applications for insurance.

The engineers of a system, called Computer Voice Stress Analyzer, try for this kind of concern for the control of access to technology. “We only sell the criminal prosecution authorities and the government,” said David Hughes, director of the National Institute for Truth Verification, the company selling the system.

The analyzer has existed since 1988, and the company suggests, it is more than 1400 law enforcement authorities of USA, as well as other state and federal authorities, including the Defense Department. “In the private economy, you do it for profit, there is always a concern about violations of ethics,’’said Hughes.” You can not cavalier. ”

But this distinction is not appease everyone. “Government is not growing as head of private industry,” said Bob Barr, a former member of Congress from Georgia, privacy is a consultant for various organizations. “The government may is in prison, if she does not like that it determines. ”

The many applications of technology to work on the same basic principle: that the human voice contains signals betrayed witnessed a spokesman for the emotional state, as the intention to deceive. Through analysis of young, often hear the evolution of language and their visual representation on a computer screen, the techniques are thought to recognize not only the accuracy, but also a range of emotions ranging from fear to excitement.
