‘Political manipulation’: Germany wants new Greek govt to obey forced administration — RT interviews Ernst Wolff

EF: I think this maneuver by the German government is just a threat to the Greek working people, because they have been paying for the mistakes made by the finance industry. Look at the situation in Greece nowadays. The social systems have been devastated, the old system has been taken down, unemployment is at 26 percent, youth unemployment is at almost 60 percent. The social situation in Greece is terrible – and what Germany wants is to implement even further austerity measures. And they know that the Greek people are fed up with this, they don’t want any more of this. So the German government is telling Greek voters: “Do not vote for a party that is against our domination.”

And boat loads of people arrive daily fleeing civil war in North Africa, Libya and I.S. violence.

The thing that I think is odd is that people don't make the connection between economic instability in Europe and the wars on her borders. When Europe is prospering and the benefits flow out, the world is more stable, even in the shaky countries. When Europe is ill, the weak neighbors are very, very sick. Europe didn't directly cause the wars, the other countries had their problems already, but if Europe acts responsibly for a change, as the largest economy in the world is expected to be managed, much of the violence would probably go away too.

I like the bit where Ernst Wolf says “So if Greece actually leaves the euro that….. could bring down the whole financial system, worldwide.”

So here we go again: big sacrifices must be made by the population at large so as to save bankster-criminals.

I’ve had enough of this. Sod banksters. If Greece wants to leave the EZ and default on its debts then let it. As to the deflationary effects of banks going bust, that can be countered by creating new fiat and handing it out to Main Street, not Wall Street.
