15. To this end we are implementing the Action Plan agreed at our last meeting, as set out in the attached progress report. We have today also issued a Declaration, Strengthening the Financial System. In particular we agree:
• to establish a new Financial Stability Board (FSB) with a strengthened mandate, as a successor to the Financial Stability Forum (FSF), including all G20 countries, FSF members, Spain, and the European Commission;
• to endorse and implement the FSF's tough new principles on pay and compensation and to support sustainable compensation schemes and the corporate social responsibility of all firms.
The new Financial Stability Board could be seen as an embryonic global watchdog – or as another slow-moving collection of regulators. The attack on "rewards for failure" comes straight from the court of world public opinion, although as usual there are few specifics. Tax havens also come under attack but what the "sanctions" primed by the G20 will be remain to be seen.

The G20 agreement is nothing more than a set of regulations for controlling fraudulent economic actions like the ones that led to the current crisis.

Why are international "regulations" required to control fraudulent Wall St. banksters?
Just like Jekyll Island and Bretton Woods, the whole thing stinks of Hegelian problem/reaction/solution.

Product Description
Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magicians' secrets are unveiled. We get a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, their pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A dry and boring subject? Just wait! You'll be hooked in five minutes. Reads like a detective story — which it really is. But it's all true. This book is about the most blatant scam of all history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity. Creature from Jekyll Island will change the way you view the world, politics, and money. Your world view will definitely change. You'll never trust a politician again — or a banker.
A little biased source I think. Hell, I am a moderate conservative and when I read crap like this it makes me laugh. These people want Obama to fail. I disagree with most of his policies but I still am not going to start making crap up to scare people and bash him. He is our president and I will support his him, somewhat. He doesnt have the power to do what her article says. It is just fear mongering so when the next election comes along he will not be reelected. Hell, I was 100% against him coming into office, I voted for John McCain, but I will be damned if I am going to make stuff up about this man while he is the president of the USA. It is detrimental to the overall health of our nation and I will not be apart of it, neither should you.
