According to the papers, there's mass demonstrations all over Europe. I understand completely people take to the streets: bankers just don't want to behave responsably, it seems. The Belgian and the French governments just bailed out the Belgian/French bank Dexia. Turns out those wnkers took huge risks. And we're picking up the bill - again. Pretty sweet deal for them, eh? They gamble, and if they lose, the taxpayer (and his kids ...) coughs up the cash. Based on the numbers I've read, I just 'gave' those thieving twts €6000.

When are we ever going to learn?

Don't blame bankers...

It's far too convenient and more importantly, conspiratorial, to blame bankers and big corporations for mess. All this does is to 'allow' already lazy politicians to wriggle out and away from their responsibilities.

Blame governments!! They are the real culprits! It's governments who make the rules, the big decisions on how your money is spent. Not individual corporations or bankers!

[Rodentpete]

The thing is when Governments screw up they can be voted out - when Banks and Corporations screw up they suffer few consequences (especially if we bail them out because they're 'too big to fail')

Also who do you think influences the governments bad policy decisions with all of their money?

governments : bankers/corporations : sameo-sameo

Lyrics

O friends, not these sounds!
Let us strike up something more
pleasant, full of gladness.
Joy, beautiful divine spark,
Daughter of Elysium,
We enter, drunk with fire,
O heavenly one, your holy shrine.
Your magic once again bonds together
What custom strictly divided,
All Mankind become brothers
Where your gentle wings hold sway.

He who has the great good fortune
To be friend to a friend,
He who has won a dear wife,
Let him mix his rejoicing with ours!
Yes--and whoever has but one soul
Somewhere in the world to call his own!
And he who cannot, let him steal away,
Weeping, out of this company.

Joy is drunk by every creature
From Nature's breast;
Every good one, every bad one
Follows her rosy pathway.
She gave us kisses, and wine,
And one friend, tried unto death;
Even to the worm ecstasy is given,
and the cherub stands before God.

Gladly, as his Suns fly through
The magnificent plan of the heavens,
Run, my brothers, your own course
Joyfully, like a hero off to conquest.

Joy, beautiful divine spark, etc.

Let me embrace you, O millions!
This kiss is for the whole world!
Brothers, above the starry firmament
A loving Father must surely dwell.
Do you fall down, O millions?
Are you aware of your Creator, world?
Seek Him above the starry firmament!
For above the stars He must dwell.
