• Europe's Savior: ; Viable Economies Need to Break Away From Collapsing Euro Currency

The utopian dream of a United States of Europe is coming apart at the seams. Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain are all on the verge of default, which would push the rest of the common market into the abyss. For once, Paris is refusing to surrender and continues to fight the inevitable downgrade of France's credit rating. The European Central Bank isn't strong enough to do much to prevent a continental banking meltdown. Overall, European economic chaos makes U.S. fiscal indiscipline look manageable. This is slim comfort, however, because in the modern global economy, we all sink or swim together. There is growing interest in numerous capitals to pull out of the eurozone before all of Europe goes down with the ship. The anxiety is especially acute in the richer northern countries. Hans-Ol...

• New Study: Closing Internet Sales Tax Loophole Would Boost Florida's Economy ; Press Conference Call Includes Discussion of 'Revenue Neutral' Approaches That Would Cut Tax Rates Elsewhere

TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Nov. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Efforts to close Florida's internet sales tax loophole gathered steam Wednesday with the release of a new economic study showing that ending special tax treatment for internet-only sellers could pave the way for reductions in the state's corporate, sales or property tax rates. The Florida Alliance for Main Street Fairness, which includes the Florida Retail Federation, the Florida Chamber of Commerce and Associated Industries of Florida, held a conference call with reporters to discuss the study. Unbeknownst to most Floridians, current state law requires individual consumers to remit sales taxes for the purchases they make online. The Alliance wants to change that, saying internet-only sellers should be treated the same as Florida's local ...

• Esa Talks End in Stalemate; While Major Disagreements Remain, Pombo Claims Consensus

The panelists agreed that the government needs to create more incentives for landowners and industry to preserve habitat. Their soon-to-be-published final report will include suggestions to strengthen habitat protection programs in the Farm Bill, and to legally authorize, for the first time, "cooperative conservation agreements" between landowners and the federal government. The panel members also agreed that a better definition of "species recovery" would help wildlife agencies create scientifically sound, financially reasonable and politically credible recovery plans. The general perspective from the conservation community inside Keystone and out is that you can give the feds more resources to do good science and you can integrate habitat protection into recovery planning," says Jo...
