Thanks for that link, I'm amazed by the quotes there.
What bothers me is that people, middle class people doesn't seem to care any more or are just repeating some stupid phrases they read in the newspapers. There used to be a time when people would show at least some form of a protest, nowadays they seem apathetic at best.
It bothers me that people are just so willing to be blind and to believe anything they see or hear.
I think that is set to change
Nothing has been done to reform the financial sector. We are basically walking right into another economic crisis. The government is currently cutting public services in order to get money ready so that they can bail out the banks again in the next crisis. (this idea has been put forward by Professor John Van Reenen, the Director of the ESRC Centre for Economic Performance, London School of Economics). Even Mervyn King the head of the Bank of England has said as much in the press.
So what does that mean? I'm guessing it means inflation, possibly hyper inflation and more public wealth handed over to the private investors. When countries borrow money, they basically borrow it from global bankers....which means we are all collectively indebted to the global investors due to the actions of our politicians
Inflation essentially means that your money is worth less. That is why we are seeing rising fuel and food costs. What it will do is eat up the savings of the middle class leaving them impoverished. This will create a chasm between the capitalist class who have invested their wealth in ways that won't be eroded and then the rest of us
The 'conspiracy theorists' might suggest that we will all be left looking into an abyss; at that point the global investors will offer their solution (which they have had prepared all along). Suggestions include ideas such as a global currency and a global government
Greece has already been forced into making savage cuts in order to pay off the debts its politicians have run up. the people have been rioting in the streets...but many of the protestors are middle class, because they have been affected as well....so teachers, doctors and nurses etc are also out protesting
In the UK there is going to be a massive public demonstration against the governments cuts next weekend in London
The government is all about privatisation. What privatisation is all about is access. Access to goods & services, access to places, access to the means of production. The people who have the money to buy up the items being privatised are the global investors. So what we are seeing is a small proportion of humanity controlling the access to everything. The rest of us will have to work very hard to be able to pay for access to things. The capitalist class won't work very hard at all....their accountants, lawyers and managers will take care of business, while they soak up the sun in Monaco
