I just saw a policeman yawn in front of the camera. Do you think your possibly over-reacting a bit?

Its far worse than what the link is showing and it will get worse, its make or break time for the country, although the outlook of a full blown take down of the government either by force or by vote has been put on the table by its citizens.

This is the result of what the IMF is all about and to mention the assassination threat on the former prime minister.

Just as soon as the Gov. gets their 130 billion Euro bailout.
Otherwise Nero will fiddle as Rome burns.

Edit: Aww shucks, you beat me to it.

Look here, get a grip.

Whitney is dead.

There is a video on youtube with a dad shooting his kids laptop. its got nearly 20million views.

A racist wouldn't shake hands with a black person in a football game yesterday.

The grammys are on tonight.

If you are in the UK, The BAFTA's are on tonight.

And you wanna talk about what? The tyranny that the EU and IMF are trying to impose on Greek and soon other countries that has caused society to collapse and forced the people to burn down their own city down? What gives?

we dont need no goddam water

I think it will get like this in the US.

Think about it, they raised the debt limit and aren't taking any serious cuts.

The Congress and House need to do a Kaizen.

The country remains beautiful and the people as warm as ever, its just that the people finally woke today and realized that its all an illusion, the pay outs are only for the banks while pensions have been slashed in half, the medical system has all but collapsed, everyone is on edge, you can literally slice the air with a knife like you would butter, its definitely not for the faint heated and this is but the beginning, i hear that spain is getting ready for their battle in several days or weeks.

I hope not.

It's a different problem,a different culture.



The Congress and House need to do a Kaizen.
Difficult to make an improvement without real economic growth.

With all fairness, I think soon enough most countries around the world will wake up to the tyranny. I hope so and so should you. If we fight for our freedom, there will be suffering but for the better and if we don't there will be suffering and then more suffering. Think about it.

Seems more a psychological damage to subdue people with gaps when you can find other ways.

actually it's quite the same with one difference, we can continue for a little while, to print money and they cannot. soon the dollar will fall so far down in value that we will then be just like them.
