The Greek people should haul a giant guillotine in front of their politicians
Edited on Thu Jun-23-11 08:18 PM by brentspeak
and seriously promise to literally use that guillotine for those who vote 'yes' to austerity measures that actually pass into law.
What is happening to Greece is highway robbery in broad daylight, abetted by their own spineless and/or bought-off politicians: the nation will have to eventually default on its debt, anyway. A second bailout will only postpone the inevitable -- but it will allow the criminal selling-off of Greece's public assets to private interests.

people need a revolution
it's obvious they aren't being represented nor will they be unless they take matters into their own hands.

4. The same thing happened in France.
Governments no longer care what the people think. They are working for THEIR bosses.
Something needs to be done. They took over the world and destroyed it and now are forcing the people to pay their debts. The arrogance is beyond believe and I don't think it's going to end the way they think it will.

6. Kick. They need to take up that municipal workers union
Edited on Thu Jun-23-11 08:25 PM by socialist_n_TN
program. A POLITICAL general strike, local and regional strike committees and worker's councils, occupation of local and state parliaments, and shutting down the national parliament so they can't vote on any more "austerity" programs OR loans.
Then they need to take it further. Armed worker's militias to protect strikers and demonstrators and an INDEFINITE general strike until the SYSTEM falls and a true worker's democracy is installed. Set up a TRUE dual power situation and see who the Greek PEOPLE support.
Oh yeah and the guilliotine idea is good too. But they need to bring it in front of every corporation HQ in Greece too. Not just the politicians.

^^I like this reply. :lmao:
DUmmie you fail under such extreme proportions. An "indefinite strike until the system falls"?! Yeah,....alright.

Aaw... the poor widdle babies in Greece. Gonna have to actually be responsible for their own lives now. Guess what Grecians (sp?)... for years you voted in these politicians that bought your votes with other peoples money. Well other people's money has dried up and now you gotta take care of yourself. I have no sympathy. Suck it losers.

Threatening the politicians isn't going to help, DUmmies. At some point, you have to face the fact that broke is broke, and you have to still pay the piper. Couple that with the fact that Greece alone can take down the EU and the euro, to say nothing of the issues with Spain, Portugal, and Italy, the Germans want to go back to the Deutschmark, etc., etc...
But hey, your little socialist experiment was fun while it lasted, wasn't it?

I fear that is going to happen here... and sooner rather than later. And our politicians dither.

They could take a page out of 0bama's book, and just print more dough.

And what the idiot DUmmies again fail to realize is that the guillotine they rolled out to lop off some politician's heads can just as easily be applied to their necks.
Just ask a few folks during the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror about that one. Hmmmm...the name Robespierre keeps coming to my mind.

I can never figure out what the primitives think the workers and peasants got out of the French Revolution.
They just replaced one oligarchy with another oligarchy, while their own conditions of life remained the same.

Ah, sir, but you see, that's EXACTLY the point! It matters not that their lives didn't change a whit, but they FEEL better about what they did, even if it did result in the deaths of several hundred thousand of their countrymen and give rise to freaking Napoleon, which led to the deaths of several hundred thousand if not millions more.

Once again the the DUmmies prove to be the poster children for the "insanity" definition
