国外网民如何看待人民币升值问题

(2010-06-23 09:26:20) 下一个

部份美国政客近年来最热衷的事就是让人民币升值。似乎美国的一切经济问题都来源于人民币的稳定(或者小幅度升值).

人民币的是否升值,对美国经济确实是有影响。但美国经济问题的根源是什么?是因为人民币的价值没有正确反应出来?那么当人民币和美元比价在1:2,1:3阶段时,为何美国经济不能腾飞,而中国经济却上去了?

也难怪那些政客,救命稻草总是要抓一把。而美国民众因为人民币升值而必须为消费付出更多的钱财,他们是熟视无睹的。

笔者不认为这些政客智商低到分不清看不到问题的根源。而是借这个话题,达到政治目的罢了。

下面看一下国外普通网民如何看待人民币升值。来源为yahoo留言网站。

OK, but so what will now happen to the worker's of China? Will they need to go on more strikes, until there's blood in the streets? To use a term that the British uppity ups have been using: what about the "little people".

No more cheap Chinese slave goods anymore. China will no longer hold onto out debts either. We will be the next Greek tragedy!

The Stocks around the world because the Chinese currency will soon replace the dollar......In favor of Chineses currency..................That is the sign that soon China will Dominate the Western World......They will Buy all our Asset and Corporation soon....They have money we have debts........Money will move the mountain in China's Favor?......That what it is......The Mighty China?

HAHA, CHINA CURRENCY WILL RISE AGAINST THE WORLD MONEY. SO THAT MEANS UNITED STATES OWED MORE MONEY TO CHINA,....ALSO THAT MEANS CHINA ECONOMICS WILL DRAMATICALLY SLOW DOWN. THERE ARE NO TURNING BACK BABY. ALL I CAN SEE IS THAT THE ECONOMICS AROUND THE WORLD WILL BE DRAMATICALLY SLOW DOWN TOO. YOU'LL SEE. RECESSION AND OR INFLATION WILL HAPPENED WITH THIS YEAR. I JUST WONDERING DON'T THESE PEOPLE KNOW THAT THE POOR FEEDING THE RICH.

Our problems do not have anything to do with the Chinese yuan. A valuable yuan will make life more expensive for Americans. Affording less of what we need is not a fix! China cannot fix the world's debt problem. Debt was the problem to begin with and we have more of it now. US dollar rally is real. 2008 was just the warm up in this deflationary crash. FED printed a trillion and inflation is nowhere to be seen! Do you know why? Let me explain. Our money supply is NOT printed dollars. It is bank credit. We printed 2 trillion dollars. But we borrowed 50 to 300 trillion over many decades. This debt becomes our money supply. And it needs to be paid back with interest! Because banks create money when we borrow. For that reason, credit, which is our money supply, can deflate: http://www.tradingstocks.net/html/banks_create_money.html

Plunger team trying to hold the market up this morning on bad news for the US. China raising the yuan to the dollar would be good for our exports but the only problem is WE DON'T MANUFACTURE ANYTHING ANYMORE!!!!! We have become a useless service sector economy. We are like a 64k computer, useless

Johnny - Monday June 21, 2010 10:37AM EDT

It is a sign the soon the United States will soon be demoted to Third World Nation Category.............China will soon Demand payment for our Debts...........Okay $ 15 trillion Dollar Debts plus $ 750 Billion Dollar service Chargs every year in interest.............Good for China bad for us.......Where will we get the money to pay our creditor......The Mighty China..........

USD will tank sooner or later.China several trillions reserve in USD will convert to "basket of currencies" which meant don't so much rely on USD anymore.What NOBAMA can do?

Yahoo! Finance User - Monday June 21, 2010 10:40AM EDT

China has opened the door for hyperinflation in the U.S. which is good news for the wealthy, bad news for the rest of us. The wealthy will recoup their losses with inflation, the consumer will get hosed with massive inflation, the economy will tank again taking the China economy along with it. Only rich Americans benefit from this move. Look at the stock market, it loves it. Anything good for Wall Street is bad for the rest of us

Turner - Monday June 21, 2010 11:27AM EDT

As US problems start to materialize, China is setting the stage for the removal of the US dollar as the global reserve currency. This will protect them and others in the world from collapsing commodity prices or severe price increases.

Yahoo! Finance User - Monday June 21, 2010 11:40AM EDT

You Fascist's forgot one thing: The rise in the Chinese currency means more expensive Chinese xxxx coming into the USA .... and thr Chinese woker is still paid less than an American worker .... So, tell me ... all you blowhards ... What did you accomplish?

what is happening 2 US - Monday June 21, 2010 12:05PM EDT

"STOCKS SOAR" really? This is just the next chapter in the plan. Manipulate this equals unintended consequenses so manipulate something else, repeat......... manipulation and uncertanty is not good. move to cash on the up days

Yahoo! Finance User - Monday June 21, 2010 12:16PM EDT

Wow, finally we got what we have wanted all the time: $10 a pack of eggs and $400 a pair of sneakers. Are all of us really so dumb to wish buy thing more expensive? Look at the price of groceries; expect it to triple in a very short time? Why do our politicians always try to mislead us that all our problems are someone else's fault? Last time (2005-2008) Yuan increased 20%; our trade deficit increased 34%, please do the math yourself. This is only good for the rich.

Arisian! - Monday June 21, 2010 12:24PM EDT

Jobs in America are the result of more expensive foreign goods and labor. In what way is a rising yaun bad for anyone who wants an American economic recovery? If we keep currency circulating HERE instead of concentrating it and sending it offshore to pile up as foreign debt, we all benefit- except, of course, the one percent that controls forty-five percent of American wealth. On the down side, there is also considerable potential for disaster: if the yuan rises fast enough, the wealthiest among Americans will precipitate a panicked sell-off of the dollar as they attempt to maintain equity

明明32 回复 悄悄话 另一个话题是,钱有什么用?对不起,指的是上千亿美元的钱
货币本身并无意义,代表的实质财富才有意义
但通过货币政策却可以掠夺别人的实质财富这才是现代经济学的精义
纯粹是经济学么?未必
和国家机器的无缝结合更好的为国家服务,是现代经济学的另一个要点
这方面中国要学的东西还很多
明明32 回复 悄悄话 回复JusticeHasLongArms的评论:
在正常情况下,随着经济发展货币自然升值非常合理,益处相当多
但很明显。。现在情况很不正常
美国滥发国际货币同时还要人民币升值就是明抢
由于无法借助武力,只有不断用捧杀这种下三滥招数,并收买无数被称为“专家”的汉奸
(不必恼火,你不够格,指的是投行那些人)
脑子进水才会在被抢的同时还沾沾自喜自己有威望负责任
等被抢到脱裤子美元开始回稳时一屁股屎谁还来管曾经的“世界救主”
太明显的事实。。。希望中国政府能聪明些
最简单的方法给大家升值预期,3年后创造个理由一次性贬值20%再升值回来,帝国主义就了解什么是民主专政了
当然同时请做好军事建设。。拳头才是硬道理

nonsense2010 回复 悄悄话 是否应该坚持自由贸易,这是一个有争议的问题.利与弊同时存在.西方坚持它主要是基于它的自由民主的理念,现在反受其害.看起来应该修改完善.

如果人民币能升到一个合理的汇率水平,如果中国能减少贸易顺差,如果没有其它国家接替中国现在的位置(可能不会有了),西方的经济会好转的.
EnoughIsEnough 回复 悄悄话 回复aac的评论:
Although 国际上公认新疆和西藏是中国的领土, the West is still interested in splitting
China if they ever have a chance. Now some of them hope that 吉尔吉思骚乱 could also
happen in Xingjiang.

左宗棠 has nothing to do with the "Red China", it was very irresponsible and
damaging for the ABC radio station to tell people that Xingjiang was
invaded and taken by Red China 60 years ago.
JusticeHasLongArms 回复 悄悄话 回复高博的评论:1.外汇储备高并不是坏事,尽管美元理论上应该贬值而且会损害储备者的利益。在美元本位的世界经济贸易中,高美元储备可以稳定投资者信心,稳定贸易,防止由于汇率大幅波动带来的不确定性。作为一个新兴国家,这可能是一条不得不走的道路——你会被游戏规则设定者掠夺,但你也会因此致富。2.中国在缺乏积累的情况下,不可能完成经济的迅速发展,在这种情况下,压低劳动力成本吸引外部投资者是经济发展的不二法门。在经济发展过程中,随着基础建设的完善,积累的增加,熟练工人和物流带来的附加值会逐渐增加,现在即使人民币升值(不可大幅度),我也看不出资本外流的可能,因为大量熟练工人/便捷的物流/规范化的交易会使得资本家在其他地方都难以复制中国的低成本,同时,现在逐步升值也会使以内需为导向的企业降低物料成本,增加利润,并鼓励在这方面更多的投资,这对于中国经济结构的转型具有重要意义。
aac 回复 悄悄话 汇率问题是个复杂的经济学问题,谁能研究透彻保证获得诺贝尔奖。很多人在讨论自由贸易的时候,套用一些经济学家的说法,是“伪自由贸易”,只谈资本和商品的自由流通(汇率政策影响资本自由流通),但是却不提另外一个关键条件:劳动力的自由流通。真正的国际自由贸易,你必须象国内劳动力可以自由流通(工作自由)一样,实现国际劳动力的自由流通。否则,那就不是自由贸易了。
ps:新疆左宗棠之前,和西藏一样,可以和中国皇朝的关系,可以介乎于主权和宗主权的关系,也可以说类似于“殖民地”的属性。没有必要去计较什么时候并入中国领土的,只要明确,新疆和西藏,在清朝末年起至今,是国际上公认的中国领土即可,至于到底从1000年算,还是100年前算,没有意义。
captin 回复 悄悄话 回复nonsense2010的评论:
You are loosing the point. What we are talking about is the relationship between the Yuan appreciation and the economic condition in the west. What you have said is that China is doing bad things worse than Japan. Except for the Yuan appreciation, what else you are referring to the "bad things?" What will happen if the economic condition is not improving in the west after the Yuan apperication?
nonsense2010 回复 悄悄话 回复captin的评论:
回顾50-70年代的西方经济,你会发现那时西方繁荣的时代.那时的日本都没现在的中国这么过分.如果中国不改正,西方可能最终会采取把中国排斥在外,建立一个新的经济循环体系.
高博 回复 悄悄话 外汇储备高了有点像手中拿着价值不定的股票,Paper Money。一旦贬值抛也来不及。中国政府人为地追求经济高增长,这是不懂市场经济的表现。现在房市和股市都出现了积重难返的局面。要表面做文章,到时后是自己害自己,老百姓遭殃。
captin 回复 悄悄话 回复nonsense2010的评论:
However, nothing is absolute. there is a good chance that the economic situation in the west will not be better after Yan's appreciation though. What will you say about that then?
nonsense2010 回复 悄悄话 实际上中国现在追求高额贸易顺差是损人不利己.一方面国内多数的外贸企业的打工仔创造了大量财富,却没有得到应有的待遇,积累的外汇也在货币贬值中受损;另一方面造成了大量的西方国家人员的失业,搞乱了世界经济.中国的领导人就是一群傻瓜.
高博 回复 悄悄话 Of course the trade balance is the best way to keep the exchange rate stable, however, normally this is not the case. Theoretically speaking, trade balance could be adjusted by itself if there was no governmental involvement. Personally, I don't think it is a good idea to keep high trade surplus and higher foreign currency reserve since China could end it up like Japan someday.
xhz3 回复 悄悄话 通货膨胀是货币发行者对货币使用者的掠夺。中国不肯让人民币升值,就是不然美元贬值,就是不想被美国掠夺。

肯定的.如果中国有一天达到了外贸平衡,那将是世界的幸运.
高博 回复 悄悄话 人民币的升值问题

国际金融自从金本位制垮台之后就成了以美元为中心的运作体制。所谓汇率就是本国货币和其他外国货币的兑换比率。在没有人为干涉的情况之下,货币的价值应该同其他商品一样由市场机制来决定,即demand和supply这个供求关系来决定。所谓通货膨胀就是因为货币的供应量超过了流通货币的需求量,那么,货币的价值就会下降。而货币的发行量是由各国政府自己控制的,所以一个国家要发展,就必须保持本国货币价值的相对稳定。这是货币对本国经济而言,老百姓都希望自己手中的钱可以保持其购买力。不然就会人心惶惶,发生社会动乱。但是,当本国货币相对本国经济相对稳定时,货币的价值又会受到出口增长的影响,中国的出口换回来的大多是美元,而美元又不能自由兑换人民币,所以这就造成国内对人民币需求的上升压力,从而导致人民币相对美元升值的趋势。要解决这个问题实在很难。所以中国外汇储备越高,人民币升值的压力就越大。其实,中国政府人为操作汇率也不是解决问题的办法,当然这样做,其目的是为了保护国内那些依靠出口生存的中小企业和保持社会的就业率,但是长期这样恐怕将来积重难返,所以最近中国政府宣布增加汇率的浮动幅度。当然美国是人民币升值在欠债上的受益者,但是美国老百姓也不一定受益,因为从中国进口商品价格会明显上涨,美元相对中国制造商品的购买力就会相对下降,从而导致美国的通货膨胀。开放式的经济就是这样相互影响的。这种国与国之间的贸易和货币问题是无法解决的,除非,有一天大家使用国际通用货币。但是哪一个权威机构可以发行这种国际通用货币呢?
captin 回复 悄悄话 回复nonsense2010的评论:
We will see. If you are correct, there should be a possility that the economy in the west will be going better after Yuan's appreciation. Time will tell.
nonsense2010 回复 悄悄话 说实话,这次世界范围的金融危机和中国汇率过低,积攒了大量的贸易顺差,扰乱了国际经济体系的运作有很大关系.
