Finally, after a good start, the ECB has now placed on hold the additional monetary stimulus that the eurozone needs. Indeed, ECB officials are starting to worry aloud about the rise in inflation due to the oil shock.

The euro s exchange rate has held up remarkably during the four years of crisis. Indeed, the currency appreciated further when the ECB declined to undertake any monetary stimulus at its March 6 meeting.

There was nothing inevitable about this outcome. Just last month, ECB President Mario Draghi provided a textbook example of how these negotiations could, and should, have progressed, when he outmaneuvered German opposition to the monetary stimulus that Europe clearly needed.

It's called the trillion dollar stimulus package.

ECB President Mario Draghi has said much the same. Indeed, the upcoming summit is missing an important agenda item a European Fiscal Authority (EFA) that, in partnership with the ECB, could do what the ECB cannot do on its own.

To fund these redemptions on behalf of some member states, the ECB would issue bonds in its own name, guaranteed solely by the ECB, but repaid, in full, by the member state. Upon the issue of such an ECB bond, the ECB would simultaneously open a debit account for the member state on whose behalf it issued the bond.

That is what the ECB is now throwing away.

There will also be potentially dangerous consequences for the ECB itself. The use of the Lisbon Treaty clause means that the ECB must be given these additional responsibilities.

Without the stimulus of danger you no longer have any libido.

So I really cannot understand Barro s last paragraph The fiscal stimulus package of 2009 was a mistake. It follows that an additional stimulus package in 2010 would be another mistake...

But the stimulus that is needed on both sides of the Atlantic is a fiscal stimulus. Monetary policy has proven ineffective, and more of it is unlikely to return the economy to sustainable growth.

If savers in Portuguese banks start moving their money to Germany, the ECB will recycle these euros back to Portugal through interbank deposits. Again, there is no limit to how much money the ECB can recycle, provided Portuguese banks remain solvent which they will, so long as the ECB continues to buy Portuguese government bonds.

And for that we need fiscal stimulus ideally, the debt friendly stimulus that raises taxes and expenditures equally. The increased tax burden for all who are employed is analogous to the reduced hours in work sharing.

So far, the social partners, as ECB president Jean Claude Trichet likes to call the unions, have been quiet. Should this change, the ECB will have to raise rates even if Europe s economic growth remains slack.

And then we do the OPEC stimulus package also known as 200 dollars a barrel.
