BTW you can tell everyone as many times as you like that they're f*ck*d.

Like I said before you sound more like this every day.

Hot news bud.
Even if the sky is falling, there's bugger all anyone here can do about it.
And you are as f*ck*d as the rest of us.

Now if you have some useful advice on what to do about it, I'm all ears.
Until then, I'll just let you post your doomsday shecht without further comment.

I'm very cheerful, and I'm not one of these doomsayers either, but I am interested in what's going to happen when everything goes, Pete Tong.

You never know, it might mean an Independet Scotland with the SNP, running the show for your new, extremely wealthy and powerful owners. #-o

Think about it this way Gusmac, it's cock suckers like you, that vote these pricks into power in the first place. #-o And maybe if you and the rest of the sheeple out there, woke the fu*k up, and took time to educate yourself, as to how the system really works. We wouldn't be in this mess. #-o

So you see, there is a lot that can be done about it, only you have to be awake, to do it. #-o

Think about it this way skull, it's cock suckers like you who don't vote that let these pricks into power.
If you don't vote, you get whatever the rest decide to stick you with.

Now why don't you get off your arse and do something useful, instead of being wise after the event, and pretending your anything more than the dour faced f*ck you are.

Or is that too tall an order for you?

BTW this is one of the best explanations of what's going on I've read yet.


Euro currency and what went wrong

Comment by Ronnie Morrison

Helga is the proprietor of a bar. She realizes that virtually all of her customers are unemployed alcoholics and, as such, can no longer afford to patronize her bar. To solve this problem she comes up with a new marketing plan that allows her customers to drink now, but pay later. ...

Helga keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the customers' loans). Word gets around about Helga's "drink now, pay later" marketing strategy and, as a result, increasing numbers of customers flood into Helga's bar.

Soon she has the largest sales volume for any bar in town. By providing her customers freedom from immediate payment demands Helga gets no resistance when, at regular intervals, she substantially increases her prices for wine and beer - the most consumed beverages. Consequently, Helga's gross sales volumes and paper profits increase massively. A young and dynamic vice-president at the local bank recognises that these customer debts constitute valuable future assets and increases

Helga's borrowing limit? He sees no reason for any undue concern, since he has the debts of the unemployed alcoholics as collateral. He is rewarded with a six figure bonus. At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert traders figure a way to make huge commissions, and transform these customer loans into DRINKBONDS. These "securities" are then bundled and traded on international securities markets.

Naive investors don't really understand that the securities being sold to them as "AA Secured Bonds" are really debts of unemployed alcoholics. Nevertheless, the bond prices continuously climb and the securities soon become the hottest-selling items for some of the nation's leading brokerage houses.

The traders all receive a six figure bonus.One day, even though the bond prices are still climbing, a risk manager at the original local bank decides that the time has come to demand payment on the debts incurred by the drinkers at Helga's bar. He so informs Helga. Helga then demands payment from her alcoholic patrons but, being unemployed alcoholics, they cannot pay back their drinking debts. Since Helga cannot fulfil her loan obligations she is forced into bankruptcy. The bar closes and Helga's 11 employees lose their jobs. Overnight, DRINKBOND prices drop by 90%. The collapsed bond asset value destroys the bank's liquidity and prevents it from issuing new loans, thus freezing credit and economic activity in the community.

The suppliers of Helga's bar had granted her generous payment extensions and had invested their firms' pension funds in the BOND securities. They find they are now faced with having to write off her bad debt and with losing over 90% of the presumed value of the bonds. Her wine supplier also claims bankruptcy, closing the doors on a family business that had endured for three generations; her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor, who immediately closes the local plant and lays off 150 workers.

Fortunately though, the bank, the brokerage houses and their respective executives are saved and bailed out by a multibillion dollar no-strings attached cash infusion from the taxpayer.

They all receive a six figure bonus.The funds required for this bailout are obtained by new taxes levied on employed, middle-class, non-drinkers who've never been in Helga's bar.

Got it?

It's the system you muppet. That's what you are voting for, not fu*king Alec Salmond. I can't believe you still don't get it. What, I should vote for people like you to remain ignorant of how the system works. So we can all be happy in never, never land, working like mindless units of production for rich pricks who really run the show.

Get a grip for feck sake. I don't believe in the system or Alec Salmond or their policies, but I should vote, because you believe that things might change.

Well, that's a great reason to wallow in your own ignorance.

Gusmac, you need your fu*king head looked at.

So now, you are arguing my case for me. I wish you would make up your mind. It's like you don't know if you are in New York or New Haven. #-o

No skull, I'm not arguing your case for you. I accept many of the facts, I just don't accept your analysis of them.


So we should all refuse to vote and hope things get better while predicting global collapse and the end of civilization as we know it?
Get real.

If anyone needs their head read, it's you. Before you end up in the booby hutch.

No, we should all take to the streets and demand that a system is put in place, which truly represents our interests. And if that day comes, I will be first in line. As I have said before, if you don't have transparency of government, your interests come last.

Your vote is for the status quo, a Government which represents bankers and big business.

You and the ignorant sheeple, are the problem, not the solution. #-o

Christ Gusmac, you believe in all of this Brave Heart Proud to be Scottish the best small country in the world nonsense.

Vote Alec Salmond, Vote Independence, Vote SNP, God is great.

America, America land of the free home home of the brave, Vote Obama.

Allah, Allah, Allah let's prey to the prophet Muhammad and when you blow yourself up you will get 40 virgins.

Do you see a theme developing here? #-o And you wonder why the world is FUC*ED #-o
