Greece:An Island Of Stability (2)

If anyone had said, in a bar or in a taverna in Greece last week, the following remark, " Greece is an island of stability. " or:

" Greece is on a new page ", I strongly suspect  that the speaker of such gems  would have been looked upon as highly delusional or having a joke; he certainly wouldn't have been taken seriously.Some would have probably thought that he was mad.

And yet, a man in a blue suit and blue tie who no doubt wishes his eyes were blue, who goes by the proud title of Prime minister said these very strange words at the Trade Fair in Thessaloniki last week.

See:http://mikeselleylyicsplus.blogspot.gr/2013/09/greece-island-of-stability.html

How did his audience react ?

Well, if they had been normal, one would have thought that they would either collapse in laughter or swear at him.

They didn't though. did they ?

They just sat there looking like they believed Mr. Samaras. A name that will certainly go down in history, but not for the reasons the holder of that name believes, I believe.

Didn't just one person dare to call out," 3000 suicides in the last two years, doesn't make this country look very stable in my eyes .Why the hell d'you think they're topping themselves ?"

See:http://mikeselleylyicsplus.blogspot.gr/2013/09/greeks-suicide-rate.html

" With unemployment going up , almost reaching unheard of numbers, you call this a stable country?"

See:http://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2013/05/09/greeces-youth-unemployment-skyrockets-at-64-general-rate-at-27-in-feb-2013/

" With mental health issues at an all time high, and you think this country is stable ?"

No one though said a dicky bird; not one word. I find that rather frightening.

Hey, maybe they did and the newspapers were told not to report it .

The audience at this Trade Fair - I must admit I find it amazing that anyone would actually want to hear so much spin , spin and spin- must have been absolutely confirmed fans of extreme austerity, and they must adore Mr Samaras.

And adored he is meant to be. According to the main-stream media  35% of Greeks think that he is the most suitable Prime Minister. Mind you that means 65% think that he is not which sounds a bit healthier .

I don't believe that even 35% of Greeks think of him as the most suitable Prime Minister. I suspect that it's a downright lie. Why ? Because I talk to people on the street, that's why. Look at the comments on Facebook about Samaras; look at the graffiti; where is this view reflected in the real world ? It's not..

It just goes to show how much the media is controlled.

If 35% of people actually, really did say they thought he was the most suitable Prime minister, I can only suggest that the Greek T.V has mastered the art of  brain-washing, and the chemtrails have a new ingredient that shuts down critical or intelligent thinking.

 Greece ' an island of stability' ? It's an insult to the intelligence of the people, to make such a remark, when all around them they can see the exact opposite.

The Orwellian 2013 Hell.

"You asked me once,what was in room 101.I told you that you know the answer already.The thing that is in room 101  is the worst thing in the World". This a from Orwell's book ,'1984.'.

Room 101 is described as a place of torture,where prisoners are forced to face their worst fears.Even a citizens nightmares are known  to the Party.In the book,Winston Smith was going to be attacked by rats, as this was his worst fear.

As we are now in a sort of almost 3D version of the afore-mentioned book,although we don't have a room 101, (as far as we know) torture has been inflicted on thousands of people in this so called,'war on terror'.
Most of the torture was done by America and Britain, though America claims  this practice has now ceased.Britain denies that torture has been used, but the truth is slowly emerging that certainly seems to contradict that highly suspicious assertion.

As Ron Paul said on 12.November 2011 ,"Torture is illegal by our laws.It's illegal by International Law."


Big Brother.

In the book everyone is under surveillance by the authorities.This was done mainly by Telescreens which is quite amazing, as T.V. did not become a fixture in people's lives until the nineteen fifties. The book, remember, was written in  the mid nineteen forties.

In our World some people claim that computers and T.V's have cameras  that are watching us.But most of the spying is done by cameras everywhere.

Big Brother IS watching you.Every major city has  thousands of lenses watching people. In the United Kingdom they really fell in love with surveillance..According to an article by Paul Lewis in the Guardian on 2.3.2011, there is one CCTV camera for every 32 people! The London tube network has 11,000.Altogether it is estimated that there are 1,853,681 CCTV's in the U.K.!

The trouble is though, they tend to malfunction, as they did .on 7.7.2005, when the London bombings took place.Strange that.

I wonder if the T.V. reality shows with Big Brother  watching the people who participate in these  games are broadcast to take our minds away from the fact that it is us who are really being watched .Psychologically, to re-direct our focus and attention on one particular event in the attempt to prevent us from acknowledging(maybe subconsciously) that Big Brother is watching us.In the same way that a phobia is only concerned with one fear,whereas it may well have started life as a feeling of general fear.

Facecrime.

"It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in a public place, or within range of a telescreen.The smallest thing could give you away.A nervous tic.a look of anxiety.....There was even a word for it in Newspeak; Facecrime.This is from the book'Nineteen Eighty -Four'.
'.

I understand that at airports ,officials are now being trained to observe peoples facial and body mannerisms to ascertain whether such people are looking suspicious and might commit a crime.If the officials are of the opinion,say that Mr.Simm's face has a perplexed, shifty look( the fact the Mr.Simm has had this expression all his life-he just generally feels perplexed, and he looks shifty because that look runs in his family,is not taken into consideration.) they have the power to detain him and interrogate him,and in fact make his life very unpleasant.

In 'Nineteen Eighty-Four', Facecrime is described as follows; an indication that a person is guilty of Thoughtcrime based on their facial expression.

Prolefeed.

In' Nineteen Eight -Four', the general population(the masses) are called proles.The Ministry Of Truth tries to keep the Proles content, and at the same time, make sure that they don't become too knowledgeable, lest they realize how awful the society they live in, is,and do the unthinkable and revolt.

To keep the Proles content the Ministry produces rubbishy newspapers containing almost nothing except sport, crime and astrology; sensational cheap novels, films oozing with sex and sentimental songs( composed by a machine) and the lowest kind of porn.

Put a few modifications to the above , such as  not sentimental songs, but songs about hate and material goods and songs with sick lyrics and what do you find?

A society very much like the one we live in.Hear my song,' George Orwell '. Click here:

As the Greeks are now discovering.

Greece : Island Of Stability ?

'.

               

" If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed."

Adolf Hitler.

" How fortunate for governments that the people they administer, don't think."

Adolf Hitler.

                               Thessaloniki       Trade        Fair        2013.

 Or:                         An Amazing Greek Parallel Universe.

 Or                          A major plug for E.L.O's' Mr. Blue Sky'.

Or                           An Extreme Case Of Cognitive Dissonance

Or                           You Can Fool Some Of The People......

                     

"" We have turned the corner, " said the blue-suited man with the blue tie who had blue skies in his eyes, blue skies on his tongue and blue skies up his trousers.

Meanwhile in the Troika- German controlled world outside:


" Malnourished children turn up at school with nothing more than rice or stale rusks for months ."*

The blue-suited E.L O. fan(1)  man cleared his throat near the microphone in a desperate attempt to drown out
the police outside shouting anti-government slogans.

See:http://news.yahoo.com/photos/police-officers-uniform-chant-anti-government-slogans-during-photo-202029318--finance.html

He looked at the audience and smiled," yes," he said, " we are on a new page". He looked proud of this statement; he hadn't used this one before and thought  maybe his scriptwriters were getting better.

In the real world though:


" The Greek Orthodox Church alone feeds an estimated 55,000 people a day." *

Back in the rose coloured Trade Fair-

" And, what's more we can see the light at the end of the tunnel we are in !"

He beamed with delight at this oh so original statement.

Outside though as these soothing words were being delivered , thousands of people , including Union workers, rallied in the country's second largest city, Thessaloniki to protest against cutbacks and the lay off of public workers.

See: http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/09/08/322659/greeks-hold-mass-antiausterity-protest/

He  gently punched his fist onto the desk in front of him as he delivered his next line, steadfastly staring with
 what he hoped was a sincere expression , at the strange people in front of him , who had actually turned up to listen to him.

" A new day is arriving !!", he exclaimed triumphantly.

This was said while:

"Municipal Authorities distribute another 7,000 meals at soup kitchens around Athens. "*

The sound of shouts and screams  outside where some say 50,000 people were demonstrating
suddenly rose and the faint whiff of teargas could be smelt.

To try and drown out the sound he raised his voice and almost shouted," Greece in an island of stability ".

Just a short distance away 4,500 police were trying to control the angry people in this island of stability.

He moved his head down to read his notes on the lectern. What was this written in red?

Say first part very slowly , and then say second part so fast as to be almost unintelligible.

He took a deep breath and spoke as if speaking to 6 year old children, as indeed , in reality, he probably was.

" Greece's economy will start to recover next year. " He wondered if he had spoken a bit too slowly, but for this soundbite to be headline news , maybe his delivery was about right. He paused, then putting his hand over his mouth mumbled at lightning speed so all the words joined up.

" Andby2020will reachpre-crisis" Suddenly, he stopped, as he saw some more red writing on his script. What was this ? Say very firmly and slowly and raise both hands in the air. Right, he thought, here goes.

"And probably higher levels of prosperity.! "

He wondered whether anyone had caught his bit about 7 more years of austerity, but no, they hadn't twitched. Were they all on some heavy medication, he pondered.

Feeling more confident  he came out with the following.

" My optimism is fueled by data ." Unfortunately he was forced to stop as an awful crashing sound could be heard, even though the demonstrators were not allowed near the place where he was speaking. Another whiff of teargas fumes could be detected.

"Fueled by teargas," ,he started to say. He smiled a sort of' it's us wise ones in this room against those fools outside ' smile .

" Fueled by data, " he shouted, " that showed the economy shrank less than expected in the first half of 2013."

Meanwhile, in the real world-

" In Neos Kosmos, a working class district  locals are often spotted scavenging for food at the weekly fruit and veg market. " *

" It used to be 1 in 10 who went to soup kitchens, but today it is 9 in 10." *

Back in the world of the have's-

Jeff Lynne's greatest admirer then proclaimed his favourite saying.

" This year, 2013 we have had record tourism." He beamed at his audience as he threw   these honeyed words at them.
Well, look at this:http://mikeselleylyicsplus.blogspot.gr/2013/06/17-million-tourists-in-greece.html


" This could add ," he sounded almost hysterical now, " more than 11 billion euros directly, and 30 billion euro indirectly into the economy.

30 Billion from one tourist season!!  Does this guy smoke something ?



There was silence. Phew, he thought, they have, as the finance minister said they would, swallowed this ludicrous statistic.

" No one understands you when you talk about really big figures, because the guy in the street has had no dealings with them; he gets confused." These had been the Finance Minister's words, and he had been right. It must be his Oxford education.

He, with blue skies spewing from his mouth, then told the faithful," Talk of' Grexit,' Greece's departure from the Euro, has been replaced by ' Grecovery' "

He walked back from the lectern, with the look of a man who had just told someone that they have won the lottery.

Not looking at the world through  red, red, rose-coloured spectacles though one sees the following.


 '' They said the crisis would pass in 2012, and now in 2013, they say we'll see the light at the end of the tunnel  ( they really like this saying ) in 2014." *

" The truth is it's only getting worse. Greeks have spent their savings. There's no more fat." *


UNICEF estimate that nearly 600,000 children live under the poverty line in Greece, and more than half that number lacked daily nutritional needs.

" In poorer families we are seeing an inability to cope with children's health, social and educational needs."

This was said by Lambros Kanellopoules, the head of Greek's UNICEF. He added:

" Social exclusion is growing. I am seeing it in the middle class where incomes have been hit hard by the the cuts. "

Interesting that no mention of how the Greek people are suffering was even touched on.

Post Democratic Greece.

 "Greece isn't democracy now; 

it's run through a troika-

 three foreign officials that fly into Athens airport 

and tell the Greeks what they can and cannot do."

Nigel Farage, leader of the U.K.I.P. party in the U.K.

Thicker Than Thieves- A Lot Thicker.

According to the Troika ( those dark-suited, black- hearts from the Tower Of Babel) they forecast in 2010 that unemployment in Greece would peak at 14.8 % in 2012, before declining to 14.3% in 2013.

Where did these dudes go for their higher  ( brainwashed ) education ? The London School Of Economics ? Ah, well, that explains it .  Did you know that most of the Dictators in the world ( especially leaders in Africa) went to this Elite Establishment ?.
Going off track, so did Mick Jagger. And what rebels the Rolling Stones were ; they actually wrote a song about spending the night together with a girl! Wow, how naughty and how the media was shocked by this , way back in the sixties. The song was' Let's Spend The Night Together '. I believe it was headline news at the time.

Anyway, to get back on track, instead , unemployment in 2012 in Greece averaged 24.2% : O.K, that was the official figure, so I think we can double that easily. I have two children, now in their twenties, and none, but none of their friends could find work last year. Actually ,one young man had a job, earning 480 euros a month and working 14 hours a day, six days a weeks .He said he worked only so he could pay the bills. Oh yes, and at the age of 23 he started going bald; I wonder why. I dread to think what his sex life was like.

Unemployment figures for 2013 are said to be 26% : so let's double that to get the true figure. So the Troika using the 'official' figures was 600% and 500,000 people adrift !!

How much do these people earn ? How many mistakes they make, and yet, keep their over-salaried jobs.

The Greek economy has contracted by more than twice the amount forecast in May 2010. Prices have risen 1.6 times faster ( official figure, so it's probably at least double that : you think these people tell the truth? Look at their track record.) Also , unemployment has been 60% higher than predicted. Once again this is an official figure, so let's say it is more likely something like 70 to 80 %.

The Greek Finance Ministry recorded a huge leap in overdue payments from citizens by 800 million euros. in March 2013, bringing the total outstanding to more than 2.17 billion euros.

The fresh arrears brought the total amount of debt to the state from all sectors to 57. 26 million euros.

And only the other day Samaras, The Greek Prime Minister,- Mr. Blue Eyes himself- said that ' Things are looking up '.

Applying my golden rule, which is, whatever a politician says , read the exact opposite, his statement makes perfect sense.

The Fluoride Scientific Fraud.

Hitler And The Surgeon-General.

Every Surgeon-General  in the United States since 1950 has promoted fluoride.

Fluoride is a poison.

Dr.Dean Burke who worked for 34 years at the National Cancer Institute in America for 34 years said;

" In point of fact, Fluoride  causes more human cancer deaths, and causes it faster than any other chemical."

So, the Surgeon - General promotes a poison.

In the Second World War, both the Germans and the Russians added Sodium Fluoride to the drinking water of prisoners to make them stupid and docile.

" Repeated doses of infinitesimal amounts of fluoride * will in time reduce an individual's power to resist domination by slowly poisoning and narcotizing a certain area of the brain , and this will make him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him. "

Mr. Harley Rivers Dickinson, Liberal Part Member of the Victorian Parliament for South Barson, as recorded in Hansard on 12. 8 1987.

* Anyone for toothpaste ? Do you know how many adverts for toothpaste there are on Greek T.V.? I never watch myself, but I have been told that there are loads. I wonder why.

Most of Europe is, thankfully free of Fluoride in the water, but not in toothpaste and food.

America though has a problem with 60% of the U.S population having access to Fluoridated water.

In the states it seems that Fluoride is everywhere. Almost all beverages sold in stores and restaurants are made
 with tap water.

The following also contain this poison.

Toothpaste.

Baby Formula.

Canned Soup.

Chicken Nuggets.

Soda Pop + Soft Drinks.

Fruit Juices .

Beer ( made in America )

Wine ( made in America ) .

Coffee ( if made with fluoridated water.

Tea ( if made with that poisoned stuff ).

I guess the solution is to buy European products.

This is what Fluoride does to the body and the brain.

1. It accumulates in the body, in the bones and the Pineal Gland ( at very high levels )

2. Bottle fed babies in the U.S. receive  the highest doses of Fluoride.

3. Fluoride given to animals in high doses destroys the male reproductive system.

4. Two studies showed an reduced level of Testosterone in males living in high fluoride area.

5. It has the ability to interfere with the function of the brain. ( The National Research Council 2006 ).

6. One hundred animal experiments show that Fluoride impacts learning and behaviour.

7. Twenty- four studies have shown that it lowers I.Q.

8. It can lead to an early onset of Puberty.

9. It lowers Thyroid function.

10. It causes symptoms of Arthritis.

11. It causes bone defects.

12. It may increase hip fractures in the elderly.

For more info see :http://www.cheeseslave.com/top-10-dangers-of-fluoride/

It gets worse.

 According to the National Toxicology Program  ( NTP ):

" The preponderance of evidence from laboratory studies indicates that Fluoride is a Mutagen ( a compound that can cause genetic damage ), and is likely to cause, or to contribute to the development of Cancer.

Fluoride has also been suspected as a cause  for lung and bladder cancer.

All in all, I'd say it's a must to avoid.

Can we all sue Colgate ?

See:
http://www.fluoridealert.org/issues/health/cancer/

And get this: not one statistically acceptable trial exists which proves that Fluoride benefits teeth, so we are lied to and lied to all the time.

Now isn't that strange. I guess they really want to keep us stupid, and to kill us at the same time.

Recent worldwide studies involving 480,000 children , found no significant difference in tooth decay between Fluoridated and no Fluoridated communities.

In fact, one study showed that decay was greater in areas where they had Fluoride in their water.

Fluoride actually harms people's teeth and causes Dental Fluorosic ( white flecks on tooth surface or in some cases brown pitting/ mottling.

If you have this, it is the first sign that your body is overloaded with Fluoride, and this can lead to brittle bones, and a host of other nasty possibilities.

Drinking just 4 cups of tea ( in a country that has Fluoride in the water ) plus brushing your teeth twice a day for only ten or twenty years can put you in danger.

Bone cancer is 3 to 7 times higher in Fluoridated areas than in non Fluoridated areas.

Studies in China showed that Fluoride causes:

1. Memory loss.

2. Headaches.

3. reduced Concentration.

4. Depression.

5. Confusion.

Yes it goes on. It also causes skin irritation, mouth ulcers and stomach upsets. Oh yes, and Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

It is, of course, flushed away, ending up in streams, lakes and the sea. This has lethal effects on the ' endangered Salmon species.

Enforced uncontrolled medication without our informed consent is a breach of human rights over the individual's freedom to control his/ her bodily processes and standards of health.

One final parting shot just to make us realize what lunatics run our world.

There is enough Fluoride in a tube of toothpaste to kill a small child.

See:http://www.aislingmagazine.com/aislingmagazine/articles/TAM26/Fluoridation.html

Love Your True Self.

Here is yet another  gem from the Buddha.

"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of  your love than yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserves your love".

How strange, you may say. I thought we should be ignoring our self,  having no ego, and here you are saying I've got to love my ego! This is surely contradictory?
It would, at first sight, appear to be but you are not meant to love your ego, as why love something that is not real, and is only an illusion?. Your real self is hidden under the   cloak of the ego and that is the one you should love.

The Dalai Lama teaches a simple but highly powerful exercise,that if done on a regular basis can change your life. All you have to do is the following:

1.As you breathe in -cherish yourself.

2 .As you breathe out- cherish all beings.

 "We can never make peace in the outer World, unless we make peace within ourselves".Dalai Lama

"The more you are motivated by love, the more fearless and free your action will be." Dalai Lama.
"If you focus only on yourself and neglect others you will lose, but you will gain if you value others as much as you cherish yourself."Dalai Lama.

What Is Beyond Thought ?

The worst addiction in the World is not what most people think it is. Surprisingly enough, it is not Heroin. It is something you can't see, hear, taste, smell or touch. Unfortunately, we are all addicted to this elusive, invisible drug.

Everyday from the moment we open our eyes in the morning, to the time we lay our head on our pillow at night we consume this narcotic. Even then we continue, sometimes for ages letting the drug dominate us, overwhelm us, and like all addicts, we are its slave.

It is thinking. Thought, follows thought, follows thought, day in, day out, every morning, every afternoon, evening and night of our lives.
We worship this fake God. We think that without thinking we would be idiots, empty shells and no better than dumb brutes.

How do we know this  ? Well, we don't, because we have never stopped thinking. If you had never drunk water, you would not know what it tastes like. It is our misguided belief that by thinking about a problem we can solve it. In fact, most thinking involves imaginary situations that you fear might take place in the future , or thoughts about some past event. Even if does address the problem head on, all it really does is put a not very efficient plaster on it, and think that the real problem is solved, but it's not.

The problem will only arise under a different name. I bet you have noticed this. It seems that the root cause of the problem is not dug up by thinking, but a few  branches may be cut off the tree, leaving the root still stuck in the ground.

So what would happen if  we stopped thinking ? Would we be like a lost child in a thick, dark overgrown forest with frightening shadows and wild animal noises that terrify us ?

No .We would be in a place of peace, harmony and understanding and real love, not the sort of love we think we experience in our normal lives. A place where answers to problems come without any problem, because we then know there aren't any problems. 



.
So, what is really beyond thought ?

It is that which makes you be.

It is that which makes the whole wonderful universe up.

It is true awareness.

It is, if you like, God.

It is, if you  like, the Buddha.

It is, is.

It is the real you.

That is why the great spiritual ( for want of a better word ) teachers of mankind spoke with such authority and gave us great truths. They were speaking from the ground of being, not from their ego thoughts.

You too can return to where you have always been, always are, and always will be. You have access  to this place ( though , of course, it is not a place ) by letting go of that heavy weight on your shoulders- your thoughts. It is the only route you can take.

Thoughts are like the dark clouds that are blocking out the sun. It is so blocked out, you find it hard to believe the sun is still shining behind them.It is though, and it is shining all the time.

In the dark of the night the sun is still up there with all its brilliance. This could be compared to those times when you have dark, depressing, ego- centered thoughts that are so heavy you feel far, far away from your true state. Your life is dark and frightening: you feel far from your home.

The Greek word for Devil, in its original meaning, meant to divide or separate. That is how we feel if we only live in our world of thoughts.We are separated from our true nature.

Our formless thoughts have created formed monstrosities in this world, and formed systems that are leading us to destruction. It is time to stop thinking: to have a wider more open compassionate awareness that comes from beyond thought.

If only for a few moments every day we  practice  being in the now, being simply ( without discrimination ) aware, we will be on that road  that too few ever dare to walk upon.

It's our road to our home, where we already are, but are unaware of this.

Everyday try and jump off the wheel of life that is going so fast. Take time out and meditate with the aim of stopping thinking

It's a lot more beneficial than watching that dreadful T.V. !.

This Picture Says It All.

Greek Constitution ? My Foot !

Greek Constitution ? My Foot.



Want a laugh ? O.K. it's good to have a laugh in these grim, grim times.

How about reading the Greek Constitution ?

Yer, it's dry I admit, but  the following bits I found in it, had me rolling on the floor.

                                            Article 1.

" All powers derive from the people and exist for the people and the nation ." I thought all power derived from the E.U,and the New World Order. 

                                             Article 2.

" Respect and protection of the value of the human being constitute the primary obligation of the State.".Protection and value of the human being !!What can one say.

                                             Article 4.

"All Greeks are equal before the law. " Yes, of course , they are. Take a look around.Erm

                                               Article 7.

" The general confiscation of property is prohibited . "  Erm, erm, no, of course this never happens in Greece, does it. Does it ? 

                                                Article 11.

" Greeks shall have the right to assemble peaceably and unarmed." Unless some bigwig is coming to town.

                                                  Article 14.

" The press is free. Censorship and all other preventive measures are prohibited. "As free as a bird in a cage. Greece is one of the most censored countries in the E.U. 

" The seizure of newspapers and other publications before or after circulation is prohibited."

                                                   Article 17.

" No one shall be deprived of his property, except for public benefit."Public Benefit or Banks benefit ?

                                                   Article 21.

" The family, as well as marriage shall be under the protection of the State."

" Families with many children, disabled war and peace veterans, war victims, widows and orphans, as well as persons suffering from bodily and mental ailments are entitled to the special care of the State." Disability benefits could never be cut, could they ?Pensions surely couldn't be cut?

" The State shall care for the health of citizens and shall adopt special measures for the protection of youth, old age, disability, and for the relief of the needy." Youth unemployment at an all time
high, pensioners have had their pensions slashed, disability benefits slashed, and where, oh where, is the relief of the needy?  

"The acquisition of a home by the homeless or those inadequately sheltered shall constitute an object of special state care. "Yes indeed, special state care, as can be observed.

                                                  Article 22.



" Work constitutes a right and shall enjoy the protection of the state, which shall care for the creation of conditions of employment for all citizens, and shall pursue the moral and material advancement of the rural and working population."I really don't know what to say, I mean, can anyone read this and not want to get down on your knees and howl?

" All workers shall be entitled to equal pay of equal value."Yes, of course, look around, and see the equal value.




                                                  Article 78.

 " A tax or any other financial charge may not be imposed by a retroactive statute effective prior to the fiscal year preceding the imposition  of the tax." Really ? Tell that to the faeries.



I said it made me laugh, but really, maybe I should cry. I do believe that these  bank front men who are only there for themselves and the masters they serve, have broken almost every article in the Greek Constitution.

And they have got away with it.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again, why on earth haven't the Greek Journalists pointed out  these facts?

Where are all the Lawyers ?

I suppose they have fled the sinking ship
