Banksters and speculators order markets to retreat

Neoliberal dictatorship in Greece ready to end the experiment

by system failure

While Samaras administration was hit by the Baltakos scandal (http://www.enetenglish.gr/?i=news.en.politics&id=1839), markets decided to contribute to the fake "success story" of the Greek government and allow Greek Minister of Finance, Yannis Stournaras, to rejoice, announcing that Greece is ready to return to the markets:

"Investment banks such as Deutsche Bank, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs appear to have decided to underwrite the 5-year bond issue worth 2 billion euros, which is the first Greek government bond since 2010 and two since the infamous PSI. This bond issue will 'test the waters' ahead of further issues in 2015, with a 'full return' expected in 2016." [http://www.tovima.gr/en/article/?aid=583621]

These lines show very characteristically who is the boss and what is the timetable for the end of the experiment. The decision of the "bosses" to open the door to Greece for lending again from the markets comes after the vote of the recent bill with tenuous majority in the Greek parliament through which the small-medium business sector in Greece will be destroyed and replaced by multinational cartels. Banksters also have an opportunity for big profits. [http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/03/greece-debts-for-public-profits-for.html]

Besides, the Greek law is already adjusted to secure the dominance of these banking cartels over Greece without doubt: http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2013/11/an-example-of-how-banking-cartels.html

The systemic establishment will help Samaras or his party Nea Dimokratia to stay in power at least until 2016. What is left to do is to sell off natural resources to multinational cartels and local oligarchs and crush minimum wage to 300 euros.

Once Greece will end the experiment, "bosses" will order spreads to fall further to "normal levels", but the social disaster in Greece is more than obvious. Poverty, unemployment, inequality hit record high [http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/04/a-social-disaster-scenery-for.html], [http://www.enetenglish.gr/?i=news.en.home&id=1841], while public debt is much higher than in 2010, when Greece was excluded from the markets.

Rule by the rich: Western governments are oligarchies, not democracies

Geopolitical Economy Report   Western governments claim to be models of democracy, and demonize their geopolitical adversaries as "authoritarian", but empirical evidence shows that the USA and European countries are oligarchies dominated by economic elites and large corporations. Billionaire Donald Trump is the perfect symbol of this, but he's by no means the only one. Ben Norton explains.
