EDITORIAL

Panic is a bad counselor The global economic crisis has entered a most critical and dangerous phase. All signs, most recently the rejection yesterday by US lawmakers of a $700 billion bailout for the financial industry, indicate that the world's markets should brace for a lengthy period of uncertainty. There are signs that European economies will not escape unscathed. To be sure, it is still too early to draw any final conclusions about the deeper causes of the ongoing crisis or the right remedial action.

EDITORIAL:AthensPlus

Waste not, want not Greece consumes more than it is able to produce. It is also relatively poor in the natural resources necessary for manufacturing and fuel production. This means that it has to import a lot more than it can export, which leads to an endless cycle of borrowing to finance the imports and, consequently, ever-widening deficits that undermine the country's future development. A natural solution would be to pursue better waste management.
