Greek Tragedy ( Capitalism in crisis....again! )
#16
RE: Greek Tragedy ( Capitalism in crisis....again! )
Well whadda you know, 12 months on and despite massive opposition from ordinary Greeks, the first wave of austerity measures has come and gone, along with widespread cuts in jobs and services and all to no avail. The country is still in financial crisis and a second bailout is being sought from the fatcats of the eurozone and IMF. any second loan will mean a second wave of austerity measures with yet more cutsi n jobs and services and hugely unpopular privitisation programme.
Once again, ordinary Greeks see through the political rhetoric and are taking to the barricades to try and stop the capitalist juggernaut of destruction.
Progressives everywhere wish them well!
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
