EU now aiding memberstates in money laundering
 

You can read it in the news this hour that Cyprus has successfully made the EU to agree on bailing its banks out. Which is not really a surprise. But it is even more bad news, and on two levels: the EU now formally gets engaged in supporting money laundery.

Gotta love EU. Its getting better and better.

Meanwhile the EU Central Committee has given a dementi on an agreement already being reached. However, everybody seems to think that it will be just a question of time.

Greeks again. :o

I doubt there'll be any agreement this time round.

The Greeks will not be allowed to leave and go bancrupt before German elections in autumn next year. Else the German government would need to explain BEFORE the elections why all their promises to the Germans had been broken and why all the billions of German taxes sunk into Greece are lost.

It's always the same story. Democracy just ruins itself every time, by democratically voting nations into self-imposed bancruptcy. Another reason why I do not defend the concept anymore.

I just have read a nice little book, "Prolokratie", a pamphlet, but a very well-researched and solid based one. It argues the same way: when every Peter and every Paul are allowed to vote and thus influence poltical fates of nations, although they lack information, education and in quiz shows answer with "BMW" when being asked for a German car brand with four letters that starts with "A", they will of course vote for those promise makers who increase debts and ruin finances to bribe such voters by making them tax promises, avoid needed financial harshness before elections, and distributed gifts to get elected.

My next book to read I have borrowed already, "Die Asozialen". About the very rich and the social low class who both parasitically abuse the middle class, grow themselves, suck money and erode the financial health and social integrity of society by numerically reducing the middle class and overburden it with payment obligations. the mechanism are known, but I hope for some well-sorted number material and statistics.

It could well be every country has similar concerns then...not just Germany :hmmm:

But they will all worry about what "message" it sends to foreign money lenders if the EU seems to illustrate that it cannot even bail out a financially and economically unimportant dwarf state like Cyprus.

They were laundering the books when they let the PIIGS in.

Anything for legitimacy...Or to outdo the USA's stranglehold on western trade.

But that is all falling apart. A delicate house of cards, built up to enrich the few, and enslave the populace.

Good attempt at a New World Order, but....

EPIC FAIL.

Not saying my countries house of cards is sturdier than yours, just saying emulating Americas financial system was the dumbest thing Europe did since Operation Barbarossa.

The largest failure of the Euro, is the fact that culturally all Europeans are different, they seemed to want to rush multinationalism, on a people who do not want it.

Then I would say "So be it"....the EU caused this mess and nurtured it for long enough...you often reap what you sow.

Just another reason why we should rid ourself's of this stinking vile corrupt nest of money grabbing pigs who are the lowest form of life on this planet.

I take it your not a supporter of the EU then? :)

I'm a Big fan of the EU....:shifty:

Howay then...what in your mind does EU stand for? :)

Yes,we now :haha:

HAVE BRUSSELS BUREAUCRATS MADE THE COUNTRYSIDE OBESE?

Sorry, wrong thread.
