High-paying/full-time jobs are disappearing. Benefits are eroding en route to eliminating them altogether. Ruler/serf societies are planned.
People have two choices - rebel or starve. Fight back or face heart of darkness big brother conditions. Prioritizing monied interests over popular needs assures the worst of what Conrad and Orwell conceived.
"The horror! The horror!" reflects what at stake.
A Final Comment
On July 19, Germany's Bundestag overwhelmingly approved bailout aid for Spanish banks. European Financial Security Facility (EFSF) funds will supply it.
Despite criticizing Chancellor Angela Merkel's handling of crisis conditions, Social Democrats and Greens largely supported her. Germany's Left Party voted no.
Spain gets $123 billion. It's coming in several tranches through yearend. It's a down payment on what's needed. Expect hundreds of billions more before crisis conditions end. Major Spanish banks are insolvent. They're drowning in toxic debt. It's impossible to repay.
Instead of being nationalized, shut down, or broken up, bailouts hand them taxpayer money. Eurozone countries contribute EFSF funds. Troika (EU/ECB/IMF) diktats control policy. Ordinary people have no say on how their money is misused and spent.
