2013 predictions

Jamaica bracing for new taxes, America bracing  for new taxes and the rest of the world has some problem or another.

Is thirteen really an unlucky number?

If I was to give my economic outlook for this year , critics would say who the hell is he to make such damning allegations but the truth must be told.

1. Big bad USA may not be so powerful in 2014

2. If Jamaica does get its IMF deal, the bitter medicine will definitely come. Biter medicine including, higher taxes, cuts in employment, depreciation of currency and economic instability.

3. No real academic discoveries (tentative)

4. No developing country will achieve developed status

5. A horrible drought or disaster which spurs artificial international kindness

6. The world will only be fairly better off by only a few people's standards.
