Ich kann den Einwand verstehen, sehe aber erhebliche Differenzen zwischen Griechenland und Kalifornien. Kalifornien kommt immer wieder in die Schlagzeilen, es sind die IOU´s, das Budgetdefizit, die Abstufung des Kreditrating usw. Kalifornien hat die Besonderheit, dass ein Haushalt und Steuergesetze fast ausschließlich einer zweidrittel Mehrheit bedürfen.
Daher die häufigen Schlagzeilen und der Eindruck maroder Finanzen. Die Finanzen sind nicht solide aber eben lange nicht so marode wie die von Griechenland. Somit hinkt der Vergleich.
Die Propanganda in den Medien ist überwältigend und in ihrer Fokussierung sehr fragwürdig.
Malko07 hat es in einem gestrigen Posting sehr gut zum Ausdruck gebracht: Wenn der Euro aus dieser Krise gestärkt hervorgeht -davon gehe ich persönlich nach einer längeren Durststrecke aus- dann bekommen die Briten und Amerikaner ein Problem mit ihrer externen Verschuldung, dann sinkt die Bereitschaft die Defizite zu finanzieren da sich der Euro spätestens dann als alternative Leitwährung anbietet.

Nennt mich Hasenfuß, es spielt keine Rolle. Die Positionen DAX Short, Euro Short waren ungefähr gleich groß.
DAX Short bleibt im Depot, Ziel 5350.

The Federal Reserve could begin pulling back its unprecedented stimulus for the U.S. economy by first removing some cash from the financial system and then raising interest rates, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said Wednesday.
The U.S. central bank has pumped more than $1 trillion into the economy after it slashed benchmark rates to near zero to combat the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.
While the economy has grown for the past two quarters, unemployment is at a lofty 9.7 percent. Bernanke made clear the time for tightening monetary policy was still some ways away, even though the Fed's thinking on its exit strategy had advanced.
"Although at present the U.S. economy continues to require the support of highly accommodative monetary policies, at some point the Federal Reserve will need to tighten financial conditions," Bernanke said in remarks prepared for a hearing of the House Financial Services Committee.
The hearing was postponed because of heavy snow that shut down transportation in Washington, but the Fed decided to go ahead and make Bernanke's testimony public.
Bernanke offered his most detailed description to date of how the Fed aims to dismantle the extensive emergency support facilities it put in place to bolster the economy. These exit steps include potential sales of assets from the Fed's balance sheet and the likely widening, soon, of the gap between the discount rate the Fed charges banks for emergency loans and the overnight interbank federal funds rate, its main policy tool.
The Fed could begin by testing tools to absorb the massive amount of reserves it had pumped into the banking system, such as reverse repurchase agreements and term deposits for banks at the central bank, in small amounts to prepare markets, Bernanke said.
As the time to tighten financial conditions drew nearer, the Fed could ramp up reserve-draining operations. Shrinking the central bank's bloated balance sheet would give policymakers tighter control over short-term interest rates, Bernanke said.
Ultimately, the Fed would increase the rate it pays on reserves banks hold at the central bank as its way to take its foot off the wide-open monetary accelerator pedal. Raising the interest rate on reserves would encourage banks to park funds with the Fed, taking the money out of circulation.
The Fed has greatly expanded its balance sheet with purchases of mortgage-related debt as part of its efforts to revive the economy. Those mortgage-related assets are on track to total $1.45 trillion by the end of March, when the buying is due to end.
Bernanke said the Fed is not likely to sell any of those holdings in the near term, "at least not until after policy tightening has gotten under way and the economy is clearly in a sustainable recovery."
However, when the recovery has advanced and more tightening is needed, the Fed could sell securities, Bernanke said. Any such sales would likely be gradual and markets would receive ample warning, he said.
The Fed will also return its vast array of emergency lending measures to pre-crisis norms, including raising the discount rate and shortening the duration of loans at its emergency lending window, Bernanke said.
The Fed expects "before long" to consider a "modest increase" in the gap between the discount rate and the fed funds rate, he said.
Before the crisis hit in the summer of 2007, the discount rate was 1 percentage point higher than the benchmark borrowing costs. The discount rate is now 0.5 percent while the fed funds rate is between zero and 0.25 percent.
Changes to the discount window should be viewed as steps to normalize lending, not a change in the outlook for monetary policy or an effort to tighten financial conditions, Bernanke stressed.
The outlook for monetary policy currently remains "about the same" as it was at the Fed's last policy meeting on Jan. 26-27, he said. At that meeting, the Fed held rates near zero and promised to keep them exceptionally low for an extended period. Bernanke repeated that pledge Wednesday.
With the Fed's balance sheet abnormally large, controlling the fed funds rate can be difficult, Bernanke said. During the transition, the Fed will likely communicate its policy stance through an alternative short-term interest rate, he said.
"It is possible that the Federal Reserve could for a time use the interest paid on reserves, in combination with targets for reserve quantities, as a guide to its policy stance," Bernanke said.

Nun gibt es einen neunen Ausdruck: unter Schnee, was es bedeutet weiß ich noch nicht.

Griechenland steht für 3% des EU BIP, Kalifornien steht für 13% des US BIP
Griechenland ist die 27. größte Wirtschaftsnation, Kalifornien (alleine) ist die 8. größte Wirtschaftsnation
Griechenland Schuldenstand beträgt 100+++ in Prozent des BIP, Kaliforniens Schuldenstand beträgt 7% in Prozent des BIP
Hier hatte ich bereits eine Begründung für die verzerrte Wahrnehmung geliefert:

Aus meiner Sicht bleibt folgende Anmerkung zum Schluss:
Grichenland leidet unter einem Braindrain, Kalifornien wirkt nach wie vor magnetisch auf Brains speziell in der Hight Tech und Biotech Forschung.
Die persönliche Verschuldung Menschen in Griechenland ist geringer als die der Menschen in Kalifornien.
#0000ff">Allein das Debt to GDP Ratio zeigt eindeutig, dass es sich nicht nur um Propaganda handelt, unsere griechischen Freunde haben zu lange zu gut gelebt.
Anmerkung:
Ich mag nicht ganz objektiv sein da meine Frau gebürtig aus Kalifornien stammt, außerdem verbringe ich meinen Urlaub gerne sowohl in Kalifornien als auch in Griechenland.
