guess what Kissinger and Scowcroft are up to

FX Trading
The US administration has turned to its cadre of elites who span the Cold War and hot ones to "urge" China to revalue its currency by at least 10%, according to a story in the Financial Times Tuesday. Henry Kissinger and General Brent Scowcroft are on the scene. As an aside, I'm sure Kissinger and Scowcroft will be quite pleased with a 10%+ revaluation, given the amount of dollars Kissinger & Associates and the Carlyle Group most likely have invested in strategic - read politically well connected - places throughout China. Same old players - same old game. No matter that Fed chairman Alan Greenspan said not even a 20% revaluation would do anything to improve the US trade deficit with China.
