    Does IMF Stand for Impressive Macroeconomic Flexibility?

    So the IMF is holding a meeting on rethinking macroeconomic policy (I was invited but couldn’t make the timing work.) And the Fund’s chief economist has already made it clear that he’s open to some serious revision of the prevailing paradigm.

    
    

    Blame the unions.

    Greek Premier Faces Impasse Over Demand to Cut Private Wages

    section A - page 7

    By RACHEL DONADIO 

     

    "Even as government officials denied the rumors on Friday, it was clear that the prime minister was fast running out of options. To get the bailout money Greece needs and to complete an agreement with private creditors on a write-down of Greek debt, Mr. Papademos must persuade his coalition to support a new round of austerity measures that could drain them of their little remaining political capital.

    In a climate of intense economic and political uncertainty, it remained to be seen whether Mr. Papademos, a former vice president of the European Central Bank with little experience in the blood sport of Greek politics, would be able to maintain control of his government, with a critical meeting with the three parties expected as soon as Saturday."

     

    http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/05/business/global/greek-official-says-barriers-remain-in-talks-with-creditors.html?ref=global
    
    "Agreement was reached on issues like the recapitalization of Greek banks and the privatization of state assets, Mr. Venizelos said.
    
    “Two major, interrelated, issues remain unresolved — labor relations and wages in the private sector, and the fiscal measures that must be taken to ensure we are within target for 2012,” Mr. Venizelos said after a two-hour conference call with euro zone officials. Despite the barriers, a deal must be reached in bailout talks by Sunday night, he said.
    
    Earlier in the day, state television announced that a meeting scheduled for Saturday between the Prime Minister Lucas Papademos and the leaders of the three parties in his coalition had been put off until Sunday afternoon as talks between the government and creditors dragged on. Mr. Papademos is expected seek political support for a new round of austerity measures.
    
    “Everything must be completed by tomorrow night, all the issues must be resolved, commitments made and procedures set in motion to ensure we are on deadline in view of the bond expiry in March,” Mr. Venizelos said. He was referring to a 14.5 billion-euro payment that Greece must make on March 20 or face a potentially disastrous default." 

    This looks like a "NO!".
