A tax on Lloyds, Royal Bank of Scotland and Barclays
British banks might think they got off lightly.
The new bank levy announced by the Chancellor George Osborne will raise more than double the £1bn he said would be generated from such a tax when outlining his plans prior to the election - or £2.5bn a year by 2013/14.
But that £2.5bn is a fraction of what the Tories' coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, wanted to extract from the banks.
And the tax rate - 0.04% next year, rising to 0.07 in 2012/13 - is well short of the 0.15% rate proposed by President Obama (although his tax would die after a bit more than $100bn has been raised).
Which probably explains why banks' share prices didn't move much today (Lloyds up, RBS up less, Barclays down a bit).
So the prevailing mood in the Treasury tonight will be one of slight frustration that they didn't set the rate a bit higher to raise more incredibly useful wonga, given that investors were plainly discounting something worse.
That said, the levy - which is fixed only in the generality, and will be implemented in January after a period of consultation - is an important new tax.
That 0.07% rate will apply to banks' total liabilities, minus Tier capital, insured retail deposits, repos secured on sovereign debt and policyholder liabilities of retail insurance businesses within banking groups.
If that's all gobbledegook to you, I will attempt to translate.
The charge will be levied on that part of a banks' funding that is perceived to be less reliable, viz the money provided by other banks, financial institutions and wholesale creditors. This is the finance which dried up in the summer of 2007 and started the chain of calamities known as the credit crunch - which in turn precipitated the great recession of 2008-9.
So excluded from the levy will be capital that is there to absorb losses, deposits from the likes of you and me - those oh-so-dependable retail deposits - and most financing provided by central banks. What's more there will be a lower levy rate - 0.02% rising to 0.35% - on wholesale funding where the repayment date is more than a year away.
In other words, there are two ways of looking at this levy: as a money raising exercise; and as a penalty for banks perceived to be financing themselves in risky ways with the potential to impose costs on society, on taxpayers, if it all goes wrong.
Or to put it another way, the government is signalling that it wants banks to reduce their dependence on such wholesale funding.
Which may seem like a good thing.
Except that our biggest banks have for some years provided many tens of billions of pounds of loans - especially mortgages - on the back of such wholesale finance.
So if they were to reduce their dependence on wholesale finance, there is a reasonable probability that they would cut back on the useful credit they provide to households and businesses, especially in the short term.
Which would not necessarily be such a good thing while the economy remains somewhat fragile.
That said, the levy has been calibrated at such a low rate that it would probably be wrong to expect massive behavioural changes - apart, that is, from the reduction in dependence on wholesale finance that is being independently demanded by regulators.
So which banks will pay the most?
Well no bank with eligible liabilities less than £20bn will pay a bean. Which would certainly rule out most of the building societies and smaller banks - although on the basis of its 2009 balance sheet, Nationwide would pay the levy.
But the tax would be applied to the global consolidated balance sheets of British banks, the UK subsidiaries or branch balance sheets of foreign banks, and the balance sheets of UK banks that are part of non-banking groups.
What that says to me is that Lloyds, Royal Bank of Scotland and Barclays will all pay a fair whack - because each of them are significant users of wholesale funding, and have very substantial balance sheets.
But HSBC and Standard Chartered will get off pretty lightly, because they are relatively light users of wholesale money and they finance most of their lending through customer deposits.
Which may be just as well, because HSBC and Standard Chartered are the two banks which would find it easiest to relocate their head offices to parts of the world where there's unlikely to be such a levy (in their case, Hong Kong and Singapore, respectively).
As for the related danger, that this levy on the UK operations of the likes of Deutsche Bank, BNP, Goldman and so on will persuade those banks to emigrate from the City of London - thus depriving the UK of employment and other tax revenues - that's much less likely to happen if the US presses ahead with the bank tax I mentioned above and the likes of Germany and France make good on their promise to impose similar taxes.
So long as the home countries of the biggest banks operating in the City also impose new bank taxes, the UK economy can prevent a mass exodus of banks - so long as arrangements are put in place to prevent these banks being taxed twice (which the Treasury says is part of the plan).
That, of course, only confirms my view that when the dust settles, this tax will end up being paid mainly by the troika of Lloyds, Royal Bank and Barclays - and can therefore perhaps be seen as permanent punishment for the way they held the economy to ransom in late 2008.

Going to be a long time before that particular book is balanced.
Meanwhile - when is the current double digit interest rate on loans going to drop, because that is linked to getting things going again. Or are we meant to be held in a permanent lockdown by the banks.

So the banks take money voraciously from the populous through inflationary, fractional reserve lending, mis-selling, onerous charges and any other wheeze that they can design. To punish them the government take some of the money off of them by force and gives it back to members of the populous that it deems worthy. The government then expects the thanks of the populous as we are all in it together.

When a bank takes on liabilities in excess of its capital and insured deposits etc., in order to lend to their customers, the effect on the economy is similar to that caused by a central bank increasing the money supply, especially if the bank's liabilities are in effect underwritten by the tax payer. The important difference is that the financial rewards of in effect printing money accrue to the shareholders of the bank instead of the taxpayer.
If the banks did not lever up the money supply in this way the central bank would be able increase the money supply by QE, which is essentially lending money to the government at zero interest. (Assuming of course that the central bank is state owned so that any nominal interest returns straight back to the Treasury as central bank profits.) So by allowing banks to apply leverage to their reserves, taxpayers are essentially handing the profits to be made by printing money to private banks.
Fairness to taxpayers requires that the levy paid by banks should be at least as high as the current cost of government borrowing - much higher than the rates proposed. The levy should be paid only on sterling liabilities underwritten by the state. Liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, should not be underwritten because of the exchange risk involved.
Apart from the advantage of plugging a leak of profits which could be made by the central bank on behalf of the taxpayer as the economy expands and the money supply is increased, a levy rate linked to Treasury bill discount rate would act as a stabiliser for the economy. The bank levy would automatically increase or decrease as the cost of public borrowing increased or decreased.

The new tax on the banks is in reality little more than a PR exercise. It is public sector workers and those on benefits that are being asked to carry the disproportionate burden of the deficit reduction exercise.
Unfortunately even allowing for the civilising influence of the LibDems it is apparently a lot easier for this government to beat up on the public sector and those on benefits than it is to make the bankers pay their fair share for the mess they created.
Such a policy may be smart politics but it is not fair or just.

What is with this wishy-washy government, in my day, the chancellor got up to speak at 2:00pm, he waffled on a bit till about 4:00pm and taxes (usually petrol, beer and fags) applied from 6:00pm.
So why didn't George do the same format, stand up at 2:00pm, waffle on a bit and at 3:55pm announce that the cost of a UK banking license will rise to £100bn applicable at 6:00pm. Anybody who did not want to comply could hand over their license at 6:02pm for a discounted rate of £10bn.
Bankers pushed for de-regulation, bankers pushed unfeasible LTV ratios, bankers created SIV's. Bankers have cost this country almost £7.2tn (yes trillion) in lost productivity
£3.2bn over 3 years (tax deductable) is a small bonus pot.

"wholesale funding" - What a phrase ! It sounds so real, solid; 'industrial' even.
A worked example of "Wholesale funding" :
The Chinese 'sell' a plastic toy to an Englishman for £1.
The Englishman 'pays' for the toy with his credit card.
The Englishman owes the Credit Card company £1, the Credit Card Company owe the Chinese £1
The Englishman pays the credit card company £1, the Credit Card Company pays the Chinese £1.
But all 'paying' means in the banking world is "re-assigning the liability owed to party A by a Bank to Party B".
So now a UK bank, instead of a Credit Card company owes the Chinese £1. So despite having 'Paid the Chinese'
we are still in debt to them !
The Chinese are then 'stuck' with lots of UK (and US and everyone else's money) sitting in low interest earning current accounts.
If the Chinese jump into the grandiose named 'Wholesale funding market' and buy mortgage backed bonds from UK and US banks then this can help the people who eventually receive this money - from selling their house - to buy more Chinese toys; and the lower the mortgage rate the higher the house prices,,, What a money-go-round ! - These Chinese goods are not so cheap - you pay more than the price on the goods for them - we now pay more to
the Chinese in Interest than our defence budget. There has to be a better way of running these things :
Step 1) - Taking China to the WTO for an unfair uni-trade policy and fining them Trillions
Step 2) Use NEFS - Net Export Financial Simulation

Or do we just need banks to mess the whole process up - at their whim? Just make 'em all very small; that way we would all have an infinite choice about mattresses in which to stuff our cash.

Can anyone explain to me why, after giving the banks almost 1 trillion pounds to "rescue" them we are now hunting around trying to save a million here, half a million there in order to keep the country afloat?
Why can't we ask for some of it back. After all, the bankers seem to be doing very nicely indeed if the record bonuses are anything to go be so why are we cutting services to the bone in order to pay back the deficit which is under 10% of what we gave the city fatcats. A levy of 2 and a bit billion is just a drop in the ocean compared to the profits these people are making.
Obviously I know nothing about the world of high finance but it seems to me that the banks should be asked to start paying us back at a more reasonable rate.
Also, when policy decisions seem to be made on the basis of how they will affect the financial markets rather than the effect on the population of this country are we not relying too heavily on the financial (gambling) sector?
Finally, a lot of these policies seem to be being made on the basis that not doing them would affect our ability to borrow. Surely when you owe so much money that a quarter of our country's income is going to service the debt the obvious answer would be to STOP borrowing. If I have personal debts that I struggle to service I would be considered by all to be extremely foolish to go on and increase those debts rather than paying them off.

Having watched the Channel 4 programme the other night it is clear that the banking system has not changed its ways since the credit crunch. Huge risks are still being taken and the risk of another collapse is almost inevitable. The next time there will simply not be any bailout, as Governments, in simplistic terms, are still struggling with paying the last one. And yet the bankers seem to be completely ignorant of the chaos they have created. Its clear the monetary system is simply no longer fit for purpose, and the bank levy is simply a very small plaster on a broken leg. I have little confidence that the government will have the courage or inclination to make the necessary changes.

No, the problems with our public finances are due to the public sector being too large a slice of the economy. The public sector was funded by an unsustainable housing and debt boom this had to end eventually. The credit crunch was a symptom of the problem not the cause.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the banks, they operated on a unrealistic business model and this needs to be addressed by making them retain more capital (something which the proposed tax might do) but the bloated size of the public sector is a seperate problem.
By the by anybody who imagines the above will be a painless process, had better think again, large sections of the population have been used to living thier lives on a similar model once it becomes impossible for people to roll over thier debts things could get sticky.
The cynic in me notes that holdings of government bonds will not be taxed is this a way to drive done government bond rates by stimulating demand?

The elephant in the room is the UK property market.
The UK is in its current state for allowing property prices to overheat in the ten years to 2008. The massive public deficit, as it stands, is firstly as a result of bailing out the banks, who, awash with notional money at the time, not only gambled unsuccessfully with savers funds, but gave it to property sellers, re-mortgagees, the banks' shareholders and the banks' employees in the form of massive salaries and bonuses.
Secondly the public deficit exists as a result of the government basing public sector expenditure on a continuation of the growth experienced between 1997-2007.
There is definitely a need to re-align public sector expenditure with the affordability of the country's economy, but not to the extent put forward in the budget. The bulk of the required reduction in the public deficit must come from repayments by the banks.
When the economy returns to a stable footing in 3-4 years, interest rates will rise in line with global rates, and as a result (coupled with continuing high unemployment, high personal debt, and the requirement for a significant deposit), house prices will fall. And, if you remember, this was the cause of the problem in the first place.

Taxing the banks 'solves' nothing...
They are too few banks. So these living wills will simply say, when the envelope is open - you have to bail us out! We must split the banks up (and stop them re-merging) unless we do this they will remain 'too big to fail'. 'Too big to fail' must be seen as the death sentence of all mega banks. Split all of the main banks up into at least ten banks each. Prevent them joining together to invest in the same projects with their former partners.
The banks have, through the operation of the market and their ultra protected position, connived together to destroy the value of money. They have created far more money that there are assets for it to purchase, or that is needed to lubricate the wheels of commerce. This is the real problem - too much money in circulation causing the value of money to become almost nugatory. We cannot hope to genuinely 'recover' unless the price of money issue is addressed.
[Note that interest rates are still one fifth of their previous lowest rate (in the last 350 years) - that is we are so bust that we are still dead men walking. The Banks, assisted by the Bank of England, have destroyed our money, by the simple unconstrained procedure of creating far too much of it. This is why it is worth nothing, with many savers getting as little as 0.01% interest. It is not freely available of street corners because of the extraordinary monopoly position of lenders. This is the real catastrophe - and it is not even being addressed! We must have (and return to) real competition for savers funds and real competition for lending. The Banks MUST be broken up.]

I only wish that was true. It is a line the Gordon Brown apologists keep trotting out, sadly the Lab govt own statistics show this to be wrong. Before the credit crunch spending as a %age of GDP was 44% tax about 37% of GDP. To put that in historical context, 44% of GDP is roughly what govts spend in a rescession not when we were supposedly in good times.
I am not to saying Banks have not caused public finance problems. There are 2 types of problem - one off financing/guaranteeing of banks this stopped being added to public spending in mid 2009 (not the guarantee stopped merely that it had already been accounted for) and secondly the decline in taxes from the financial sector - but that is in effect to blame the banks for not making profits in bad times.
I do think the budget missed a trick. I would have provided that any bank which relied on govt finance (from any country) could not make use of losses from 2007-9 to offset against profits. This would allow tax revenue to flow from the banks earlier, without this it will be many years before banks pay any corporation tax

The retail section of the banks stopped being banks along time ago. They became loan companies injecting funny money into the economy. I was employed briefly in a retail bank in 2004; the employees were heavily targeted to lend money. The sales staff were unscrupulous in their actions in order to meet their targets.

1. How does the levy proposed in the budget compare with the above investment made by taxpayers in bailing the banks (and bankers) out ?
2. Everyone appears to think that this problem was caused by bankers and they should pay, not the entire public. Therefore, my Question - what % of the deficit was caused by the financial crisis ? As far as I can remember, the taxpayer money is the money invested in banks (which has appreciated already), Northern Bank guarantee cost and the money provided as funding by Bank of England.
If (2) is zero in the sense that the money is showing positive returns, then the levy is all about future. Whereas if the amount is say GBP 30 bn, then the levy is too low - will take 15 yrs to recover!

If the taxpayer paid £Xbn direct to banks and provided £Ybn in free of charge guarantees to their failing 'businesses' that is only part of it.
The total cost also needs to include the loss of national income caused by their behaviour - example all the productive businesses which went bust due to catastrophic reductions in trade and the same banks refusal to provide credit.
£30bn is no where close to the total amount.
But don't wait for Bertie Wooster to start taking serious money off these parasites - remember who is paying for the tory party and who holds Bertie's purse strings.

Two comments on the points made above:
1. It is the financial crash created by the banks which is largely responsible for the current deficit NOT the size of the public sector. See the links referred to above.
2. The Institute of Fiscal Studies has now confirmed that it is the poor who are hit hardest by this budget.
So the poorest are made to pay for the mistakes of the bakers. That is simply immoral.
Shame on you Mr. Cameron and Mr. Clegg.

re public spending as percentage of gdp
Here are the OECD figs UK public spending totals for 2004 to 2008 (GBP millions) -
516 794.0 553 391.0 584 512.0 617 037.0 684 996.0
Quite meaty rises dont you think.
Here is a link to trends in public expenditure -
The table 3.1 ends at 2005/6 at 41.9%, this appears to be higher than the data in your link.
Here is a link about a report re public spending trends -
'The 2020 Public Services Trust – a "dead centre" commission that includes both Labour and Tory luminaries such as Blair's former policy guru Matthew Taylor and the Tory MP Stephen Dorrell – calls for a "system redesign" of government to head off a permanent fiscal crisis.'
'Public spending as a percentage of GDP will rise to more than 63% of national income by 2030, a thinktank says, to meet the rising costs of ageing, an unexpected fertility boom, climate change and the price of replacing decrepit infrastructure.'
You ask me somewhere else who owns debt, I'm more interested in who has the liability of paying for it. As debt servicing costs generally rise as debt rises all things being equal it seems reasonable to seek to manage debt. Part of that mix is surely to keep it under control.
One thing I am sure of is that public services can be managed to meet needs more effectively than appears to date.
With regard to long ago eg Thatcher. I havent trugged thru it all, and I have no intention of doing so, but I do know PPP and PFI and Utility privatisation were undertaken to get figures off the PSBR so it is, as usual, probably difficult to compare apples and pears.
GDP has been reported as recently rising due to public spending ie borrowing. That would hint at problems.
I dont see it makes any difference who is in number 10 the cuts will have to be made, the timescale may have varied but the cuts would still have come.
You might also be interested in this link
''Public expenditure in the North East of England is now 64% of GDP.
Public spending in the North West, Yorkshire and Humberside, the West Midlands and in Scotland is around 55% of GDP.
Meanwhile, public spending as a share of GDP in London remains low at 35%.
For the UK as a whole public spending as a share of GDP has risen from 37.4% in 1998/99 to 48.4% in 2010/11.''
Facts are not political are they. It all looks a bit of a problem to me but I'm just a simple guy. The regional figures are alarming. I suspect the financial sector being London based has a local effect. If the finacial sector diminishes, however much an outside chance that is I would expect problems. So by all means explain my concerns away. I am keen to know.

Responding to couple of comments made above
1. It is popular to blame the bankers, but it has been discussed that the failures are fairly spread out, including the regulatory bodies of various kinds - Mervyn King as an example.
2. The bankers did not cause the deficit to reach the levels that it did, we have Gordon to blame for that. And guess who picks up the tab for Gordon's failures..
3. In terms of banks having to pay and the customers ultimately picking up the tab, this is incorrect and has to be challenged.
- The supernormal profits have already been picked by (OFT?), which is trying to understand why such banks charge the money that they do, therefore we have regulators stepping up (as they should) to protect customers at various levels.
- Banks also pay too much (??) to their investment bankers, which again the government should look at..
Therefore it is possible that the banks pay, the bankers compensation decrease and banks profits/ customer impact is zero.

I am minded of the old adage in relation to setting targets and incentives e.g. to Sales people..... you rarely end up getting what you set out to achieve. And, I fear, the Government is carrying on in much the same way, setting targets/directives/taxes which will have unintended consequences.
Various Governments allowed Bank Execs to make huge sums through extending risk, and we are now in a mess. And this was pointed out by many people over the past years, so far from being wise after the event. Consequently, I would just like to stake my claim for pointing out that yet more Government action is almost certainly going to continue their illustrious track record.

This is appropriate but should be applied more widely. Every employee of a bank should pay a tiered payment:

+ earning over £120k but less than £250k pays an additional 25% in tax
+ earnings over £250k pay an additional 40% in tax.
Dont give me the arguement these people at the top are worth the money they are not. The majority are characterised by gread and arrogance in equal measure. For the highest paid earning over £250k it should apply for 5yrs and in all cases extend to pensioners who became liable to draw their pensions from 2008. In this way we could also catch "Fred the shred".

I'm not assuming anything. But I have to say that cuts look part of the mix. But explain away, I'm interested. Your suggesting the swedish model I presume. I would like to meet her.
''3. I don't think even you could deny that the banking crisis and the bail out of the banks has had a dramatic negative impact on our public finances.''
Chicken and egg I think and a lack of governance, as shown de facto by the introduction of new rules before the GE. I do know we have a problem and I do know who got us here.
''4. Even if we were to accept everything you say surely not even you would advocate making the the poor pay more than the well off. And yet that is precisely what this budget does - see report of Institute of Financial Studies referred to above.''
I have never proposed the poor pay more. I would propose we have less poor by getting an economy working. I would be interested in knowing if you have ever been poor. I have as it happens so please do not talk down to me, Ive got the tee shirt. The problem is despite record funding going in stop the problem we as a country still have over 20 percent of kids being brought up in poverty and it is rising.
But as I have said - facts are not politcal are they, and the facts are UK public sector spending is as given in the links. Surely you do not think 63 percent, which is the estimated trend destination, is sustainable - thats even more than the Swedes can deal with. So let me know how you would deal with it. Meanwhile I'm with Lord Desia - stop subsidising the middle class. And nobble the rich if need be. So exactly what party am I in. I'm not in any party other than the Beach Party. But I reckon whatever way you go we are all going to pay. And bills dont go away if you wait.

I'm afraid I'm one of the heretics who point to the impact of the debt mountain and abandoning common sense in the search for bigger margins as being the prime cause in this. We're 30 years into the experiment and the Ponzi scheme has now run out of options because the debts run up are now threatening to take out governments because the taxpayer is now responsible for them.
So, erm, at £2.5 billion a year, how long is it before the banks repay the 30 years of money they've screwed out of us?
Should have let them go to the wall, guaranteed the depositors and started again. Looks like that would have been the cheaper option as it seems like, now the debt has shifted to the taxpayer, the banks and bonds markets want to play some more.
Any news on tightened regulation for the city on some of its more dubious practices which have contributed to this mess? By tightened, I guess I mean 'some'. By 'dubious practices', I mean pretty much anything which is blatant gambling but which has the direct or indirect intention of leaving the taxpayer to cover any loss.

Governmental economics: tax the people, give money to the banks, the banks pay small tax and receive absolution for all past wrong doings, banks invest taxpayer money in growning Asain economies and use profits to pay small tax which is also less than the interest they are charging the government to borrow back the monies provided by the taxpayers. Cuts in services are needed because the government can not afford the interest being charged by the banks to borrow the money that the government has given them.

A rather interesting question which this levy raises is the additional liability that Lloyds will pick up as a result of its acquisition of HBOS. Given that there is a forthcoming action against Lloyds management and the government for concealing the true extent of HBOS financial troubles during the takeover it will, presumably, be part of that action to recover the part of the levy attributable to the acquisition if the case succeeds in court. I await with interest the order of the court to disclose all minutes and correspondence (from both Lloyds and the government) relating to these issues. If I were the coalition I would go for pre-emptive full disclosure on this case and treat it as an exposure of Darling and Balls.

I believe they (Barclays) eventually took the Queen's shilling in the form of a guarantee for their dodgy assets. Only HSBC, of the Big Four, avoided taking the Queen's shilling. And, just to prove a point, they have *already* moved their HQ to Hong Kong, possibly to avoid onerous British taxes on the vastly greater international earnings !!

While bashing the banks is all fun and good the minor point the previous government was spending £4 for every £3 raised in tax is the main issue. At the end of the day the government (read taxpayers) will get their money back from the bank bailouts and provided they don't sell to early could make a nice profit for the country, the problem of the public sector being to large and costing us all more seems to be lost on many people.
If you ran your own personal finances the way the government was spending you would be in your overdraft, all your credit cards at their limits while trying to pay your mortgage and a car loan. End of the day the government spent the money so we all have to pay for it, there's no point in blaming the banks for the black hole in public spending.

A THEORY OF THE FIRM: GOVERNANCE, RESIDUAL CLAIMS AND ORGANIZATIONAL FORMS, Harvard University Press, December 2000, (Book)
This paper analyzes investment rules for various organizational forms that are distinguished by the characteristics of their residual claims. Different restrictions on residual claims lead to different decision rules. The analysis indicates that the investment decisions of open corporations, financial mutuals and nonprofits can be modeled by the value maximization rule. However, the decisions of proprietorships, partnerships, and closed corporations cannot in general be modeled by the market value rule.

Summary | Excerpt | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
Set in Bethlehem in the early 2000s, Matt
Beynon Rees's first novel depicts a city under siege by the
Israelis and torn from within by gun-wielding gangs that extort
money from businesses and control local politics. Set against
the backdrop of real events and inspired by real people, the
story hinges on Omar Yussef, a 56-year old Palestinian teacher
from a well respected but not particularly wealthy or
influential clan. Yussef is an honorable man who questions the
way society is deteriorating around him and maintains his
intelligence and decency even when others around him descend
into hatred.
Yussef used to teach history at an international school but now teaches at the U.N. girls school in the squalid Dheisheh refugee camp. Long ago, he dreamed of leaving a legacy behind him in the form of the young minds...
Welsh-born Journalist and author
Matt Beynon Rees has covered the Middle East for over a
decade from his home in Jerusalem, following six years as a
financial journalist in New York. The Collaborator of
Bethlehem is his first novel following Cain's Field:
Faith, Fratricide, and Fear in the Middle East (2004).
Rees arrived in Jerusalem at a time of relative peace between the Israelis and Palestinians and was therefore able to focus his reporting on the internal conflicts within the two societies. He points out that, "Dissatisfaction with the way their society is run is very much how ordinary Palestinians feel. They don't always express it to foreign correspondents, because they're eager to vent their frustrations about Israel and the journalists are usually keener to hear that (because their ...

Language Switcher for WordPress
I've recently had occasion to install the Language Switcher WordPress Plugin on a website I've been building for my family's Cider Mill business. The business operates in Quebec, so it was desirable to communicate with customers in both English and French. I mention the plug-in here, because the archaeological community has always been naturally multi-lingual, and it would be good if archaeological websites could reflect that multi-lingualism. The problem with designing multilingual websites though are two fold – getting everything translated, and then managing the mass of pages, since everything needs to be duplicated, triplicated, or what have you. It … Continue reading Language Switcher for WordPress

Investment and Long-term Productivity Growth in the Canadian Business Sector, 1961 to 2002
This paper employs the databases that are used to construct Statistics Canada's Productivity Accounts to examine the sources of growth in the Canadian economy and the history of productivity growth in Canada over the period 1961 to 2002. It makes use of a new time series using the North American Industry Classification System. The growth accounting system provides the framework for the analysis. This framework provides estimates of the relative importance of labour inputs, investments in capital, and productivity growth. The data that are required to address this issue also allow changes in the composition of capital and labour inputs to be investigated. In addition, the underlying factors that determine labour productivity (multifactor productivity, capital deepening, and increases in skill level) are outlined. Since the database is constructed at the industry level, all these relationships can be pursued both at the level of the total economy and for individual industries.

Current Problems in the Availability of Insurance
129567: Mar 4, 1986
GAO discussed its 1979 report on issues and needed improvements in state regulation of the insurance industry. GAO found that insurance availability was affected by: (1) redlining, which is the arbitrary denial of insurance to everyone living in a particular neighborhood; (2) subjective underwriting practices which could result in consumers being denied essential insurance because of unsubstantiat...
Taxation of the Insurance Industry

A speech was given presenting GAO views on: (1) the taxation of the insurance industry; (2) property and casualty insurance companies' pricing strategies; (3) the impact of certain current tax provisions on the industry; and (4) the consolidation of property/casualty companies with parent companies that are not in the insurance business. Because the ability to offset underwriting and investment in...

The Taxation of the Property/Casualty Insurance Industry
128019: Oct 1, 1985
Testimony was given on the taxation of the property/casualty insurance industry. GAO found that, as a result of certain tax advantages: (1) many property/casualty insurance companies have not paid federal income taxes for a number of years and have qualified for refunds or have been able to carry-back or carry-forward losses for tax purposes; (2) insurance companies can exclude interest income fro...
[Taxation of Property/Casualty Insurance Industry]
128329: Aug 20, 1985
GAO views on the taxation of the property and casualty insurance industry were given. GAO believes that Congress should reexamine several aspects of the tax code dealing with property and casualty insurance companies because, although they had about $28 billion in underwriting losses from 1974 through 1983, they had about $100 billion in investment gains during that period, resulting in a total ga...
Congress Should Consider Changing Federal Income Taxation of the Property/Casualty Insurance Industry
GGD-85-10: Published: Mar 25, 1985. Publicly Released: Mar 25, 1985.
GAO examined the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code which are used to determine the taxable income of the property and casualty insurance industry. These companies are similar to other companies in that the premium income is analogous to the sales receipts; however, a difference lies in claim payments which may not be made until a future year, while the premiums are received currently. In exa...
Taxation of the U.S. Property/Casualty Insurance Industry
121657: Jun 13, 1983
Testimony was given concerning GAO work on tax policy issues pertaining to the property and casualty insurance industry. GAO has found three areas where tax code treatment for insurance companies differs in important ways from the concept of economic income. Because of the definition of taxable income that is currently used, the tax burden of property and casualty companies is lower than it otherw...
Taxation of the U.S. Life Insurance Industry
121314: May 10, 1983
Testimony was given on the taxation of the life insurance industry. The Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act changed some facets of the tax treatment of the industry, but many of the provisions included in this legislation will expire at the end of the year.

Modified Coinsurance and Its Use by Some Life Insurance Companies To Reduce Taxes
PAD-82-33: Published: Apr 14, 1982. Publicly Released: Apr 14, 1982.

No, there really isn't any excuse for using raw inline SQL given the existence and ubiquity of parameterized query APIs. They provide all of the flexibility of raw SQL but with guaranteed proper escaping of value text and thus no SQL injection vulnerability (bugs in the API implementation notwithstanding).

- By date
Oct 31, 2012Unlike White Trash with Money, there is no unifying sound or theme here: it's just a satisfying set of strong songs.
Oct 31, 2012Bocephus-like clarinets, old-timey lyrics and Toby's smooth-as-whiskey delivery assure purists that there is still Hope for classic barroom singalongs.
Oct 31, 2012The Oklahoma country singer and songwriter who's reached the top of the country charts with such quaff-minded odes as "Beer for My Horses," "Whiskey Girl" and "I Love This Bar" clearly hasn't exhausted that wellspring of musical inspiration yet, returning to the corner watering hole several times in the 10 new songs on Hope on the Rocks.

A burn in my eyes, As the fire hit the ground
I could hear the screaming, My inner thoughts hurting.
No one was there to help me, Alone in my shadows I stood
Anywhere was better than here, The fire raging up high.
hitting the ground, as people tumbling down
Before my eyes, lye the biggest surprise
?I wished this could stop, As i burned to the ground
?There was no one around, Now I'm gone because i burnt with no sound..

Have you thought about putting your thoughts down directly, maybe as a story, not as poems? Even if not for posting on the site. I've been in a similar place to the ones you describe, and worked my whole life with kids who have terrible troubles. One of the reasons for the way I write is to escape from all that, but the darkness always manages to find its way back in. Good things pass, but so do bad things. This poem is maybe my favorite of yours, and makes me think of 9/11. Keep up the good work.
This is really intense. I enjoyed it a lot. You are an excellent writer.
your emotions show within your words a very intense and profound poem yet a pretty layout of colour
Wow, the ending was powerful!!! Keep up the great work, that was just so amazing. Wow.
Nice setup well done
Even though your description says you don't know what it's about, it was still good and had a nice layout :)
Wow.. painful poetry. Like it.
That ending was really powerful.
A very short poem but very intense. I would have liked to see a bit more of the story behind the fire but that is what makes it so great, any can relate to it because there are so many different fires! Great Job!!!!
