Greece

[xerxes]

I didn't call you a nazi cunt though. Just said you were sounding dangerously close to one with your choice of language. You should choose better really.

Godwin's law proved once again.

 

EU heads of state cancel tonight's summit, citing lack of progress at finance minister level over Greek crisis.

 

It's looking grim for Greece.

[Gnasher]

Considering you called me a nazi cunt, and considering that the nazis murdered some of my relatives, I think I was pretty restrained. But I am seriously close to not caring any more.

Considering your family suffered at the hands of the Nazi's don't you think your bright and breezy manner of hrowing the "nazi, fascist insult to people whenever you get a bit miffed trivialises what they must of went through a tad?

 

I'm no expert but if someone,

 

A, agrees with jackbooting through Poland, believes in the superiority of an Aryan race, agrees with the mass murder of millions of Jews, has portraits of Adolf Hitler all over his house, he's probably a Fascist Nazi.

 

B. calls Nick Clegg a spineless little twat on an Internet forum, probably not a Fascist Nazi.

[Jairzinho]

Yes, B is significantly less of a fascist than, for example, Netanyahu.

[VladimirIlyich]

They could be fascist anarchists, it still doesn't change the fact that I don't own a car.

I'm sorry to break it to you,but your lack of material wealth indicates your stupidity.

Well,somebody had to tell you, eventually.

Anubis doesn't do it for money, he's a street lawyer taking law to the lawless. He sits there all day on TLW not doing any work unless someone walks in, at which point he grabs his phone and shouts 'for Christ's sake Alan why are we talking 5 to 7, I could plead him out in 3 to 5!'.

[SasaS]

I'm sure Stronts will be along shortly to tell you that your lack of fiscal conservatism is the reason for not owning a car

 

 

 

Well, buying a car was by far the stupidest investment I ever made.

[PestiRed]

Well, buying a car was by far the stupidest investment I ever made.

Only car I've ever bought was a banger at the age of eighteen that I spent 2 years saving up for. Since then, I've only ever had company cars and I'm now very lucky in that I live in a country with no company car tax and the company pays for all aspects including petrol and tolls for personal use. My car does not cost me a single penny.

 

When I see how much cars cost, I have no idea how people afford them - or rather I have no idea why someone would want to spend that much on a car.

[dennis tooth]

Company car? Communism for companies, socialism for the rich, fascism for the corporations, capitalism for the poor.

Well yes, obviously I should return it and ask for a pay cut at the same time to show solidarity with the poorest members of Hungarian society but my missus won't let me. Women hey! Biggest barrier to true democratic reform ever

[dennis tooth]

No im just saying a company car, sounds a bit commie

Now Eurogroup cannot reach a deal. This is getting ridiculous.

[Jairzinho]

Seems to have caused a bit of a North/South divide. 

[Gnasher]

It's the Finacial equivalent of this

The bankers, euro hawks and creditors are playing the part of Jack Pallance to a tee

Going to be war between the hardworking, disciplined Protestants and the lazy, feckless Catholics

I'm really glad the mainstream media hasn't taken this opportunity to push some Europe wide divide and conquer rhetoric to distract people. 

[Red Phoenix]

[SasaS]

Fear not, Greece fans, Alexi has arrived . Will Merkel also step in, discipline Scheuble so they can hammer out some kind of a deal? And who the fuck is that Finnish Farage now flexing his muscles?

 

Is Varoufakis feeling relieved now on his hols for walking away, or itching to get back in? This is a weird game now, right up his alley.

[Jairzinho]

He looks more like a fucking Finnish Gok Wan. 

 

 

"Implement harsher austerity to get bailout"

 

Oh, okay, thought the problem was you didn't trust them? 

 

And, er, do you think that by further decimating the economy you're more or less likely to get the money back?

[SilverSong]

One of the basic problems with the current financial system is that it places too much emphasis on money being a store of value, instead of it being a means of exchange.

 

The free movement of money (for profit) is undermining economies and their stability.

 

Taxation needs to drastically change to catch the movement of large profit into tax havens. I'm a firm believer in flat taxation (paye) and a financial transactions tax, as well as the usual consumption type tax.

 

The burden of tax falls on too few people.

KopOut knows.

I meant the True Finns leader Timo Soini, not  Finance Minister Stubb. Apparently, he threatens to bring down the government if Stubb signs.

Just like World War 2 then...

[Anubis]

Varoufakis is sitting in his underwater base that he spent the last bail-out money on, training his laser satellites on Germany and Finland. I reckon he'd make a great Bond villain.

 

As for my car comment - it's a sad day for the GF when nobody recognises a Ferris Beuller quote.

[Gnasher]

Just like World War 2 then...

 

Eh? Not really, not really at all.

[SasaS]

The Texas Brussels sun is blazin' and I need a place to rest my weary bones
Whatever got me this far has long since left me out here all alone

And now it sure is a long walk back to San Antone Athens
