A Quick Look at Bloomberg News's Opinion Section for Sept. 6, 2012

THE EDITORS: Are you better off than you were four years ago? “Yes and
no. . . . Americans on the whole are better off than they would have
been without the stimulus. But (yes, there's always a but) many are

Marois becomes premier and vows to push for a referendum on secession,
“Quebec must come to terms with the painful calculus that the cost of
divorce far outweighs the perceived benefits of independence.” [Read

unintended consequences of making our global banks too small to

less-regulated shadow banking sector.” [Read more]

CAROLINE BAUM: How important is it that a presidential candidate be

JONATHAN MAHLER: The Washington Nationals have decided to end pitcher
Stephen Strasburg’s season. The question this raises “isn't whether the
