Greek rescue in danger as deputy prime minister attacks ‘Nazi’ Germany

“The escalating dispute came as a general strike in Greece spilled over into violent clashes between hooded youths and riot police in Athens. Chants of “burn the banks” are a foretaste of tensions once austerity measures bite in earnest later this year. (vezi aici, aug 2009)
….
They took away the gold that was in the Bank of Greece, and they never gave it back. They shouldn’t complain so much about stealing and not being very specific about economic dealings
….
The euro is overvalued anyway. It is way out of line, and a weaker euro would be quite useful for Europe to stimulate exports.”

Secret Banking Cabal Emerges From AIG Shadows - daca cineva mi-ar fi zis in urma cu cativa ani ca voi citi pe Bloomberg un asemenea titlu as fi ras cu lacrimi. Fast forward in anul 2010 si nu mai rade nimeni, la multi le vine chiar sa planga. Bloomberg a mai avut anul trecut o initiativa in care a dat in 2008 in judecata fed-ul america. Un mic rezumat:

“The idea of secret banking cabals that control the country and global economy are a given among conspiracy theorists who stockpile ammo, bottled water and peanut butter. After this week’s congressional hearing into the bailout of American International Group Inc., you have to wonder if those folks are crazy after all.”
…
“This insight is especially valuable given that the New York Fed is a quasi-governmental institution that isn’t subject to citizen intrusions such as freedom of information requests, unlike the Federal Reserve.

This impenetrability comes in handy since the bank is the preferred vehicle for many of the Fed’s bailout programs. It’s as though the New York Fed was a black-ops outfit for the nation’s central bank.”
….
“Now, I’m not saying Congress should be meddling in interest-rate decisions, or micro-managing bank regulation. Nor do I think we should all don tin-foil hats and start ranting about the Trilateral Commission.

Yet when unelected and unaccountable agencies pick banking winners while trying to end-run Congress, even as taxpayers are forced to lend, spend and guarantee about $8 trillion to prop up the financial system, our collective blood should boil.”

Toate acestea se intampla departe de noi… mai serveste cineva un imprumut a-la FMI?

Huuuaa, hotiiii! S-a urlat, s-a improscat cu material maro, am vazut fanatici, zeloti, primari care au mers cu toata autogara la vot, candidati badarani, santaje josnice, manele, intelectuali aburiti, OTV. Ne-am scarbit de politica din nou, am facut promisiuni ca nu mai mergem la vot, ca nu ne mai intereseaza, ca emigram, ca e tara de cacat. Brucan a mintit!

Stiti insa cine e mai suparat ca noi? E omul cu autobuzu’: Un lider al transportatorilor le cere politicienilor să-şi plătească datoriile din campanie: “Am dat microbuze, autobuze, am făcut turism electoral cât nu s-a făcut «ever» în România”. Din cate stiam eu, hot pe hot nu se fura… da e criza. land of choice, sau mai bine zis: mereu surprinzatoare.

In trecut glumeam cu prietenii ca prin 2020 o sa mancam “paine Microsoft”. In timp gluma a evoluat in “paine Google” (sau goagal, dupa caz). Azi aflam ca Google intra pe piata de energie din SUA prin Google Energy LLC. Poate poate ajunge si la paine intr-un final

Minunatul nostru guvern care se imprumuta de unde mai poate (+1 miliard de euro luna asta) s-a decis sa taxeze o gama larga de produse ne-sanatoase (junkfood). Sper ca peste un an doi cand cu toti vom fi super fit si cu crosa de golf in mana sa apara Base la OTV sa ne vorbeasca despre minunatele calitati nutritive ale lobodei (cu o manea fina in background) si efectele daunatoare ale consumului de carne. Sa traiti sanatos!
