Sure, but your post does not help much as to what they are and how they could be solved. Then again, you seem to suggest to just keep printing new money (which is what is happening globally, cause we're still in a financial crisis, where we will remain, because the system suggests to be held in a 'crisis state', since that increases the interest of those that hold huge values).

Then again, this doesn't even remotely touch the basic things that are wrong with the global economies and the financial markets, so it's probably a moot point... .
