The one thing I don't understand is why people are just taking this. It leads me to believe there are one of two scenario's going on here.
-This whole thing is made up. Not saying the banks aren't confiscating folks money but the scope is being way over hyped.
Or...
-People really are sheep. Someone takes your life's savings, your life's work, your life's worth and flushes it down the toilet. You just take it? You don't even put up a fight?
Why are there no stories of people burning buildings (aside from the bank fire)? Why aren't there people in the streets?
It makes no logical sense to me.

I don't think you understand his situation. He was poor, moved to Australia and worked for years in his own little store to save up 1 million, not alot in todays dollars, to retire. Then moved back to cyprus. And now is destitute in his retirement and everything he did for an entire lifetime, all the sacrifices and work was for nothing. They stole his whole life from him.

My answer is no, but there are far worse off people out there without 100,000 euros, without anything in fact.

This man's video's are extremely deceptive for he tells people over and over again, to Get Money Out, and thus is promoting everyones bank accounts to be seized. A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing.

Now he knows how it feels! He will just need to get buy like the rest of us now!
I do feel for him and his family regarding the culture shock that will undoubtedly follow.

Tensions are high between supporters of the two parties because they are blaming each other for the situation. Also the parties like to keep these tensions high so that the people don't realize that they are both the same sh*t. There have been lists with names of people who withdrew all ther money just days before the haircut and these people come from both big parties, but people are such fanatics about whose party is right that they blame each other instead of their leaders.
