Zero Hedge
Wednesday, October 12, 2011

Remember the country that started it all yet was “so small nobody should worry about it.” Well, it turns out its size was juuuuust right, and while the Eurozone is now fighting contagion fires everywhere up to and including the heart of the core (thank you most-bailed-out-by-the-Fed-bank Dexia), Greece still has yet to see any benefits whatsoever from all the so called bailouts, including the 5 previous tranches from the US taxpayer funded IMF. Well, it appears Greece has effectively shut down, after the country’s Finance Ministry – the nerve center coordinating not only the country’s economy but its continued bailout requests, has announced the start of a 9 day strike beginning October 17. May as well call it indefinite, and may as well put a fork in it.

From Bloomberg:

Greek finance ministry workers blocked access to the ministry’s main building in central Athens as part of protests against government plans to cut jobs and wages.

 

Members of the Federation of Finance Ministry Unions hung a banner reading ‘Occupation’ from the roof of the eight-story building and hoisted black flags around the roof. The federation plans a nine-day strike beginning Oct. 17, according to an e-mailed statement today.

  1. The poverty level is going to continue to
    increase.

    This administration is only concerned about
    how they can get more and it looks like
    they are out to bankrupt our nation
    so they can reform it into a socialist state.

    The economy is going to continue to go down.

    A lot of manipulating is going on right now
    to try to keep up the image that we are getting
    better.

    Don’t be fooled.

    Your dollar is losing value more and more each
    day.

    Robert Kiyosaki and many other financial
    experts are saying

    “cash is trash”…

    Just a matter of time cash
    won’t be worth anything

    just like has
    happened in Germany

    and many other countries
    in the past.

    Thank heaven several months ago
    someone referred me
    to some info put

    together by a millionaire
    which has helped me

    prepare for the future
    in several different ways.
