the unbalanced evolution of homo sapiens

“ The ascendance of finance in recent decades has oriented understanding of ‘the economy’ toward financial terms and policies. The Federal Reserve at the heart of ‘monetary’ policy in the U.S. is a public- private consortium run by bankers in the interests of Wall Street. The history of Fed policies in the modern era, from the end of WWII to the present, is of engineering periodic recessions to protect bank ‘assets’ from depreciation through inflation.” “ When considered in historical context Mr. Volcker’s actions were at the vanguard of the corporate-capitalist coup that goes far in explaining present circumstance.” “ That Fed Chair Volcker was appointed by Democrat President Jimmy Carter in the midst of broad moves to ‘de-regulate’ the U.S. economy and the wholesale abandonment of the Keynesian policies that had guided the U.S. since the Great Depression is more than an accident of history. The epic that followed, finance capitalism, is still under way and it represent...

Golden Dawn free to participate in euro elections The Greek Supreme Court decided that Golden Dawn's participation in euro elections is legal, as rejected the objection based on the fact that MPs and executives of the neo-nazi organization have been accused for establishing a criminal organization. http://www.tvxs.gr/news/ellada/areios-pagos-kanonika-i-xrysi-aygi-stis-eyroekloges Neoliberal dictatorship is expected to support neo-nazis in order to attract voters in euro elections and break the anti-austerity front, as being promoted as an anti-systemic force while in reality they are the fourth hidden component of neoliberalism and a secret card of the systemic establishment: http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/05/the-31-heads-of-neoliberal-monster-in.html As the timeline for the Greek experiment has been set already - IMF and EU executives have made statements implying that the experiment should end with Samaras administration completion in 2016 - neol...

Exclusive information by Kostas Vaxevanis and koutipandoras.gr According to Kostas Vaxevanis, the American company Cleary Gottlieb Steen and Hamilton suggested to the Greek government a way to avoid the new Greek bonds to be governed by the English law and therefore, to avoid mortgaging country's public property. The journalist reveals a document in his website koutipandoras.gr, from the company to the then General Manager of the Public Debt Management Agency, Petros Christodoulou, through which makes the suggestion. Key parts of this document follow: “ The dealer managers are insisting that all new bonds issued in connection with Project Oak be governed by English law. Only a very small percentage of Greece's existing debt stock is governed by foreign law so this would amount to a wholesale switch of the governing law of Greek public debt” “ The dealer managers have argued that a continuation of the practice of issuing Hellenic Republic bonds...

“ The finance ministry said that first batch of the dividend, an amount of €133.2m, had been transferred to the bank accounts of 205,912 citizens whose applications had been approved by May 3. The average payment was €647 per household.” “ Entitled to the dividend are those on low-incomes, who are unemployed or certain self-employed professionals who have seen their work dry up. The dividend starts from €500 per beneficiary and may exceed €1,000 in the case of large families. The deadline for electronic applications, which takes 2012 incomes into account, is the end of June.” “ Although the law prohibits the banks from seizing the dividend payment to pay off debts, on Friday there were reports that some institutions were withholding the money from beneficiaries. ” Source: http://www.enetenglish.gr/?i=news.en.economy&id=1908 Banksters ruined the last attempt of the government to win euro elections, or not? Another probable risky trick by the Gree...

EU ELECTIONS A recent TV spot from the Right-wing government coalition party, Nea Dimokratia, for the euro elections, gives another small example of how the systemic establishment in Greece uses propaganda to present to voters a false "success story" for Greece. The PressProject website reveals: “ In the Greek subtitles the translation is begun with a capital letter and ends in a full stop. According to the ad, Barack Obama said a full sentence and that sentence was, ‘The Greek people see a light at the end of the tunnel.'”  [...]  “ A quick search on the White House website reveals the full transcript and video of the statements Obama made to reporters after his brief meeting with Antonis Samaras. What he really said was, 'And I think Prime Minister Samaras is committed to taking the tough actions that are required, but also, understandably, wants to make sure that the Greek people see a light at the end of the tunnel.'” In details: ...

by system failure Connecting the dots one can discover the most nightmarish scenarios. Destructive capitalism's next phase is the total substitution of the human labor force with robotic machines, or in other words, the hyper-automatization. There is a process taking place right now, and no one (or nearly no one) knows what would happen after its completion. The true picture behind unemployment From a latest article in PressTV: “ Did you know that there are nearly 102 million working age Americans that do not have a job right now? And 20 percent of all families in the United States do not have a single member that is employed. So how in the world can the government claim that the unemployment rate has “dropped” to '6.3 percent'?” “ Well, it all comes down to how you define who is 'unemployed'. For example, last month the government moved another 988,000 Americans into the 'not in the labor force' category.” http://www.presstv.ir/detail...

του system failure Προκύπτουν όλο και πιο εφιαλτικά σενάρια αν συνδέσει κανείς τα κομμάτια του παζλ. Η επόμενη φάση του καταστροφικού καπιταλισμού είναι η πλήρης αντικατάσταση του ανθρώπινου εργατικού δυναμικού με ρομποτικές μηχανές, ή αλλιώς, η υπερ-αυτοματοποίηση. Μια διαδικασία που βρίσκεται σε εξέλιξη και κανείς (ή σχεδόν κανείς) δεν γνωρίζει τι θα σημάνει η ολοκλήρωσή της. Η πραγματική διάσταση της ανεργίας Υπάρχουν αυτή τη στιγμή 102(!) εκατομμύρια Αμερικανών, σε ηλικία εργασίας, που δεν έχουν δουλειά και το 20% των οικογενειών στις ΗΠΑ δεν έχουν ούτε ένα μέλος που να εργάζεται(!) Η κυβέρνηση παρόλα αυτά ανακοινώνει ότι η ανεργία έπεσε στο 6.3%. Πώς είναι δυνατόν; Η απάντηση βρίσκεται στα "μαγικά" που κάνουν οι κυβερνήσεις και την αναθεώρηση του ορισμού της ανεργίας. Για παράδειγμα, μόνο τον τελευταίο μήνα, η Αμερικανική κυβέρνηση "θεώρησε" απλά, ότι άλλοι 988.000 Αμερικανοί δεν ανήκουν στην εργατική δύναμη. http://www.presstv.ir/detail/...

How many more must die? 22 dead according to some info: 12 women, 6 men and 4 children – 3 boys and 1 girl. 36 saved. Survivors claimed that there were 65 immigrants on board. Therefore, there is unfortunately a possibility for more victims. The shipwreck took place 4.5 nautical miles north of Samos in the sea area of Agios Konstantinos. http://www.koutipandoras.gr/article/113138/stoys-22-oi-nekroi-stin-samo-oi-18-egklovistikan-mesa-sto-nayagio-anamesa-toys-kai More: http://www.enetenglish.gr/?i=news.en.home&id=1898 http://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2014/05/05/22-migrants-drown-when-boat-sinks-off-shore-of-samos/ Related: http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/01/farmakonisi-tragedy.html http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/03/another-human-tragedy-in-aegean-seven.html http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2013/12/tortures-and-modern-auschwitz.html   A new tragedy with illegal migrants was averted in the last minute: ...

EU ELECTIONS by system failure All indications point to the fact that the oncoming euro elections will be marked by a rise of the eurosceptic forces. According to a recent research, the percentage of the eurosceptics in the new European parliament could reach 30%. According to Open Europe, these parties could not build a coherent alliance since they cover a quite broad ideological spectrum. ( http://www.openeurope.org.uk/Article?id=19919 ) There is a different picture for the traditional parties in power which, according to the research, will maintain the majority in the euro parliament, although with less power. These parties are the three components of the neoliberal doctrine that strikes Europe and European humanitarian values to serve the big businesses and banks. The first component is the conservative Right which has completely adopted the neoliberal perception. Traditional values of the conservative-patriotic Right in Europe have been corroded by the inter...

The Greek Police announced that has detected genetic material in the powerful explosive mechanism that had been mailed to the police department of Itea in Fokida, which coincides with that of the former November 17 member, Christodoulos Xiros. ( http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/01/breaking-former-member-of-armed.html ) According to some information, the genetic material has been found in the wiring assembly of the mechanism. The organization "Conspiracy of Cells of Fire" took responsibility for sending a package of an explosive mechanism (neutralized by the police through a controlled explosion) on April 29, at the police department of Itea. http://tvxs.gr/news/ellada/genetiko-yliko-toy-ksiroy-ston-ekriktiko-mixanismo-tis-iteas A culmination of provocative operations as we approach EU elections? “ In case that Christodoulos Xiros will stay out too long, it would be a strong indication that the systemic establishment uses now every mean to disor...
