Democrats and Republicans are unable to agree on a plan to reduce U.S. debt, which has just reached 15,000 billion. The reasons and consequences of this blockage. The President of the United States Barack Obama
The debt crisis in Europe has almost been forgotten that the U.S. also face their great difficulties on their debt. European stock markets closed sharply lower on Thursday. Paris (-3.4%, below 2900 points), Frankfurt (-3.5%) and London (-2.6%) fell sharply in the wake of Wall Street lost more than 2% at the end of the afternoon. Democrats and Republicans should agree on a plan to save 1,200 billion over ten years to hold their huge debt. But after two months of negotiations, they were still far from an agreement a few hours from the end of negotiations scheduled for Monday evening.
Congress had in effect established a commission to decide on a plan to reduce debt. Composed of twelve members of Congress – six Republicans and six Democrats – the "super-committee" was intended to relieve an abysmal debt that comes to exceed 15,000 billion (you can see it evolve in real time on the www . usdebtclock.org). The six Democrats proposed a plan for 2900 includes 1,300 billion billion tax increase, the six Republicans on the other hand opted for a plan of 2,200 billion euros, with "only" 200 billion of tax increases. Without ever reaching a consensus.
Why the lock?
This blockage occurs less than a year of presidential elections scheduled for November 2012.

The payment of a new tranche of eight billion euros to Greece was approved Friday by the finance ministers of the euro area, which, however, have found their remaining differences on the reform of the support fund euro and put their decisions on this issue later.
Meeting in Brussels, they also discussed at length the contours of the new rescue plan for Greece and the participation of banks capable of reducing the Greek debt to sustainable levels.
A report prepared by the "troika" – IMF, ECB and European Commission – representing the international donors, a 50% discount on Greek bonds held by private investors is necessary to reduce the debt to 120% of GDP against 162% today.
If it was intended to reduce debt below 110%, a discount of 60% would be necessary, the report says, as a basis for decisions of Heads of State and Government of the euro area summits on Sunday and Wednesday.
The outcome of these meetings, which should lead to a new Greek plan, a formula to maximize the funds to support the euro area and a wide recapitalization of banks on the continent, is considered crucial for the single currency.
"We decided to authorize the payment of the next tranche of financial assistance to Greece in the context of the current program of economic adjustment.The disbursements must be made in the first half of November, once approved by the International Monetary Fund, "said the finance ministers of the euro area in a statement.
Athens immediately welcomed the European decision, saying it was "a positive step."
The decision "provides the fiscal targets in 2012 and paves the way for necessary structural reforms," said Greek finance minister, Evangelos Venizelos, in a statement.
CONTINUATION OF DISCUSSION ON EFSF
According to several sources, the Europeans, however, remain largely divided on the level of the discount to be applied to Greek bonds as well as the voluntary and non-bank participation.
The German authorities, in particular Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble, insist that the envelope of 50 billion euros negotiated on July 21 is significantly revised upwards, if necessary by forcing banks to make an extra effort.
Paris is reluctant for fear of triggering a credit event with unpredictable consequences.
The ministers, however, only discussed the various options available to "maximize" the firepower of the EFSF, which also divides Paris and Berlin.
The Minister of Economy, Baroin said that France continued to believe that the conversion of cash in bank was the best solution but it did not make "one final point of confrontation."
"What counts is what works.And what works is what will go towards deterrence and effective firewall and it is around this that we try to work, "said the Minister after the meeting.
Granted a banking license in EFSF would allow access to funding from the European Central Bank to increase its capacity for action by a factor of up to five.
But Berlin rejects this possibility, which would be to accept that the institution of Frankfurt finance the countries of the euro area, one of the dogmas explicitly excluded by the European treaties.
The other members of the euro area are also divided, Belgium and Spain having voted for a reconciliation BCE-EFSF while Slovakia and Austria have indicated that this solution was not studied.
The countdown has started, however, for not only the peaks of Sunday and Wednesday but above the summit of Heads of State and Government of the G20 in Cannes in early November.
Thursday night, U.S. President Barack Obama spoke on the economic situation in Europe with his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Knowing that all of this will be discussed in the fall during the budget debate in 2012 with the goal to bring 12 billion euros. However, these emergency measures are far from unanimous, even among the majority.State of Play.
Stay for abatements on real estate gains?
One of the most important steps is one of the most contested. The government intends to eliminate deductions on real estate gains (excluding primary residence) for any sale agreement signed after August 25. Knowing that the current system reduces the taxable gain on resale of 10% per year from five years in prison. This opens the way for a full exemption after 15 years. The removal of this niche could yield 200 million in 2011 and 2.2 billion euros in 2012.
Problem, if not convicted on the bottom on the left, it is hotly contested within the ranks of the majority."The government is open to criticism and amendments, provided they do not involve the amount of effort or their balance," said François Fillon at the close of the summer university of the UMP party this weekend.

A measure that sickens mutual
The plan discussed Tuesday also plans to increase from 3.5% to 7% special tax on insurance agreements "caring and responsible." Or most of the contracts offered by mutuals. The measure could yield 100 million in 2011 and $ 1.1 billion in 2012. But it suffers, too, the fire of criticism, the opposition is doing this over from another. "The government did not want to touch the heart of its policy, but he has not forgotten detaxerles middle and working classes", then "it is already becoming increasingly difficult to treat" was criticized in Martine Aubry reaction."
This calls into question deeply the objectives of access to care and control advocated by the French Mutuality. (…) The taxes on health insurance organizations additional (…) were multiplied by twenty "protested the president of the French Mutuality, Etienne Caniard, in a letter to Nicolas Sarkozy.
Two taxes more consensual

The president of the U.S. central bank, Ben Bernanke, called on lawmakers to enact fiscal stimulus to support U.S. growth, which shows serious signs of slowing down. The chairman of the Federal Reserve (Fed), Friday, August 26 urged elected officials to take additional fiscal stimulus for employment.
The president of the U.S. central bank (Fed) Ben Bernanke on Friday called the political authorities in Washington to make fiscal stimulus to complement the effort of supporting the institution to grow. "The Fed will certainly do its utmost to help restore growth rates and employment rates in an environment of price stability," said Ben Bernanke in a speech in Jackson Hole, Wyoming in the mountains (Western States USA)."However, most of the economic policy measures to support the long-term growth is a spring outside the central bank," he added.
For him, it is for elected officials to take additional fiscal stimulus for employment. Ben Bernanke does not really paved the way for further monetary easing as many had hoped. At most, he has not ruled out this possibility, stating that the regular meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Fed planned for September 20 would be extended by one day to allow a "fuller discussion" on the policy. While the economy seems to get bogged down, the head of the Federal Reserve believes that "the foundation of growth" are still there in the U.S., despite the persistence of "risks". He said GDP growth "should improve" the second half.
About the situation in Europe – one of the "risks" mentioned with that of the long-term situation of public finances U.S., Mr Bernanke said his optimism. "I am confident that our European colleagues are fully aware of what is at stake in the difficult problems they face today and that over time it will take all necessary and appropriate measures to deal effectively and fully, "said his speech.
Analysts polled by Dow Jones Newswires had forecast a decline in the index to -26 points. The barometer and exceeds the level of January 2009, where he was at -31 points, and is close to the depths it reached in the second half of 2008. In July of that year he had marked -63.9 points and -63 points in October. Far supported by a robust economy, the monthly indicator has been the backlash in August concerns about growth, which slowed sharply in Germany in the second quarter.
German gross domestic product (GDP) grew by only 0.1% in the first quarter, said last week the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). In the euro zone, GDP rose by only 0.2% from April to JuneThe fear of a recession in the United States, with the downgrade of the sovereign debt of the country by Standard & Poor's, also made the financial community more pessimistic, according to the Zew in a statement.
"The skepticism already expressed by financial professionals for the future development of the economy has amplified dramatically," said Wolfgang Franz, president of the institute, in a statement. Their assessment of the current economic situation in Germany "is certainly positive, but it is much worse than the previous month," he adds. It stood at 53.5 points against 87.5 points expected by the consensus of Dow Jones Newswires and after 90.6 points in July.
This deterioration of the index "was to wait," said Thilo Heidrich, Postbank. But the magnitude of the fall surprised economists."This is a response to fears of recession in the U.S. combined with the debt crisis in the eurozone," said Christian Ott, an analyst at Natixis. Jennifer McKeown of Capital Economics, the barometer "suggests that the worst may be yet to come."
The reaction in financial circles is "exaggerated," said Mr. Ott the contrary. "Foreign trade, less dynamic, will be offset by very strong domestic economy," he says, referring to the large investment of German companies and the positive outlook for consumer spending. "The most likely scenario is a pause in growth through the end of the year," his colleague Judge Christian Schulz, Berenberg Bank, a recession are "less likely". Mr. Schulz said that this survey was conducted in market turmoil in early August, when fears of an economic downturn seized markets."Surveys such as the Ifo (to be published Thursday, ed), the business climate, are more indicative of current developments," said Ralph Solveen for its part of Commerzbank.
