...further big rise in price would do shocking damage. For example, a jump to $30 per bbl. would lift OPEC's total 1980 revenues to about $300 billion, constituting a huge new international tax on economies everywhere...
...payments deficit for all industrial nations would climb from this year's $16 billion to perhaps as much as $40 billion in 1980. Developing nations would be hurt worst, since many of them have no exports of real value to count on at all. Their debts, which already total some $300 billion, would swell by perhaps another $60 billion, requiring poor nations to borrow yet more billions...

But the Boeing seats seven passengers abreast and the Airbus eight. The TWA order for 767s will probably grow to 40 or 45 by 1987. Total cost: $2 billion. Coming on top of orders from United, American and Delta, the TWA deal further assures Boeing's world supremacy in commercial plane manufacturing...
...stiff regulatory costs, a decision last week by the Environmental Protection Agency was a breath of fresh air. Rather than fixing stern limits on the air pollutants discharged by each and every smokestack or other source in a plant, the EPA will permit state authorities to set a total on the gunk that the entire plant can discharge. This is called the "bubble concept" because environmental regulators will treat a plant as if it were contained in a bubble and all its pollutants emerged from a single hole in that bubble.

That was a puzzling claim, since Byrne herself was confusingly mixing together two separate problems-last year's operating deficit of $43 million, and estimated total indebtedness to bondholders and others...
