programs are for the people, they still keep forcing them on these countries where people are now desperate. All to protect the Banks and force the people to pay their corrupt gambling debts.

What is happening in Europe is tragic. If an invading army had marched through Europe, Greece, Spain, Ireland, Italy, Portugal et al, they would at least have met with some resistance. But this Economic invasion, which has stolen their resources, their sovereignty, their hopes for the future, was aided and abetted by their own elected officials.

The sheer gall and stupidity to continue, for years now, doing what has zero hope of succeeding and has cause so much harm, is sure to go down in history among crimes against the people of that region of the world by Global Cartels who robbed their resources and then used their puppets to force them to pay for their gambling debts.

And still there have been no arrests, no charges against those responsible.
