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.
