GOOD!!!! Unfortunately the financiers and politicians will not listen as usual, and the people will not go to the next step required to really change things - civil war and overthrowing governments/bankers.
As long as they are allowed to keep doing these things without real and serious repercussions, they will keep doing it. The politicians are the friends of the very people who caused the problems, so they are not very likely to do anything that will mean a real penalty is applied to themselves or those creating the problems. The media is full of propaganda again - the BBC are referring to the financial disaster that is Europe, as a financial "problem". Europe's problems are so big they are now directly affecting the world economy. Watch the agreement to help the Eurozone carefully too - European members will be bailing it out, not the Eurozone members. That means WE will be paying to help THEM and THEIR screw-ups! No different to having to financially help the US or Brazil or China bail out its economy, but thanks to the smoke and mirrors that is Europe, it is not viewed this way by people. For decades people have been taken for a ride, and now we are paying the price for it. Politicians are professional liars, yet time and time again people forget. Best regards, Vulcan. |

You're not advocating civil war are you Pointy?
By the way, apparently the NYPD are coming in for criticism for their treatment protesters. There's a video on Youtube of a higher ranking officer spraying pepper spray into the faces of young girls that were protesting peacefully.
Other videos too, of allegedly rough treatment of peacefull protesters.

Perhaps more civil unrest is required, in order to make changes. I'm always amused with countries in the middle East, so desperate for their Democracies. To coin a phrase of Star Trek's Spock, they may find that having isn't as wonderful as wanting!

It is disgusting! The Police should be mindful of the fact that they are apparatus of the state. Best regards, Vulcan. |
