Finnish government top officials congratulate each other for the beginning of the neoliberal nightmare!
Finland is
about to enter the neoliberal nightmare and it seems that the
government officials are happy about it! The cruel measures are now
adopted even by the most advanced countries inside the eurozone and
Europe generally. The global oligarchy and its puppets do not hide
themselves anymore. The new Feudalism is here. Just check the picture
below:

If one fist bump could endanger
Finland's increasingly stressed tradition of consensus politics,
then Prime Minister Juha Sipila and a cabinet colleague may just
have achieved this dubious distinction.
In a nod to popular culture, a
smiling Sipila and his finance minister Alexander Stubb punched
each other's fist to celebrate a breakthrough in negotiating one
of Finland's toughest austerity deals in decades with trade
unions.
The unions, whose members face de
facto wage cuts in the name of reviving economic growth, were
deeply unimpressed by the public show of exuberance earlier this
month. “Members were very upset. They thought that
they were mocking workers, saying something like: 'now we can
drive them into the ground',” said PAM union leader
Ann Selin, who represents 232,000 workers.
[...]
Relying
on traditional consensus politics, Sipila wants to persuade the
unions to cut labor costs by 5 percent. It is part of his push to
raise the competitiveness of the Finnish economy after three years
of recession with some of the deepest austerity and welfare since
World War Two.

Got it? The
political puppets of the global oligarchy are happy to apply cruel
austerity measures. They do not even pretend anymore that "they
are sad" because they are forced to take measures due to the
"urgent" situation.
If you need
to see more of the cynicism of the servants of the neoliberal
doctrine, take a look at the response
of IMF's head to the Greek PM, after the recent revelations of WikiLeaks, who provided full coverage
to the IMF economic hitmen.
And all
these measures are imposed supposedly because the economy is in bad
shape and needs to be fixed. At the same time, the Panama
Papers, one of the biggest global scandals
concerning the offshore fraud, erupts and proves that there is plenty
of money to save many times, many national economies. Just picture
it: the puppets of the global oligarchy demand fiscal discipline
through further cuts from the people, when at the same time their
bosses are laundering tons of money through the completely
deregulated bubble economy.
