domestically owned and its gdp is in the top 10 worldwide devaluation would help its still substantial industrial base posted by purple at 1 06 pm no comments friday october 28 2011 a debt that can t be repayed won t be greeks have launched a wave of civil disobedience against the embattled government s austerity measures designed to appease international creditors which provided rescue loans to the country the latest example of rebellion is the athens municipality of nea ionia where authorities are urging people not to pay a much reviled new property tax being charged through electricity bills our constituents can t pay they don t have the ability to nea ionia mayor iraklis gotsis said we consider the new tax to be illegal but in essence the truth is our people just can t pay 1 civil

kill us class resistance makes the elite uneasy in italy but angelino alfano secretary of mr berlusconi s people of liberty party said on tuesday night that an agreement on reform measures had been reached with the northern league that would hold the coalition together and assure economic growth details were not immediately available talks between the coalition parties continued into the night indicating no substantial agreement on reforms had been reached mr bossi said later he was pessimistic and dug in his heels over pension changes if we touch pensions the people will kill us he told reporters italian government on brink of collapse ft posted by purple at 9 43 pm no comments sunday october 23 2011 getting something for nothing the teachers who took the survey were given a list of 15 things that might help to retain the best teachers higher salaries ranked 11th on the list behind benefits like more time for preparation and opportunities for professional development 1 style padding left 20px apparently bill gates does not believe the law of self interest as he would define it in every other sphere of economic activity applies to teachers surely if pay doesn t matter then he and his boadroom buddies would be happy to take massive pay cuts the fact that music and the arts is argued for inclusion in our schools primarily as a way to raise math scores shows you how useless the whole exercise in education reform is posted by purple at 9 32 am no comments saturday october 22 2011 the diversity fetish there is a diversity fetish that vexes people on the left and occasionally finds expression in public debates for instance when ows is denounced as too white but bringing in some materially comfortable people of color hardly represents a real solution though certainly in the context of the left s diversity fetish it would if one actually lives in the developing world white folks are far a few between and the local exploiters are universally people of color that they are often on the low rung of the international ruling class is not a question of importance the world s most powerful steel corporation is owned by an indian consortium based in luxembourg whose children very well may attend elite american universities where they would be people of color in equivalency with a sharecropper from tj in the political context of a common leftist analysis the ruling class as long since incorporated diversity into their worldview and with the planet s billionaires increasingly people of color one would hope the left could go back to some common sense class analysis if it doesn t it will certainly maintain its irrelevancy posted by purple at 9 03 am no comments thursday october 20 2011 enough with the exclamation points if you are bidding for a contract you do not need to pepper your letter of intro with exclamation points to prove your enthusiasm this reliance of emotionalism is very culturally reminiscent of fascism posted by purple at 10 47 pm no comments the disgusting freedom fighters of libya killing an unarmed man in vengeance is not noble it is a lynching what happened today and over the last weeks in sirte was barbaric and a war crime no wonder the liberals are salivating the only redemption if one can call it that will be that these neanderthals will completely run libya into the ground they will be incapable of ruling except as weak minded servants of some white men in suits posted by purple at 8 55 pm no comments wednesday october 19 2011 those who make peaceful revolution impossible sadly i think the time has come for blood to be shed every time we protest peacefully more cuts are made and they are always at the expense of workers as one of our great singers said it s only with fire and knives that men progress people will have to die if we are going to stop these dreadful policies make no mistake the military will be called in 1 greece erupts as police clash with thousands marching on parliament uk guardian posted by purple at 3 00 pm no comments sunday october 16 2011 the hungry american gallup surveys in china and the u s reveal chinese are struggling less than americans to put food on their tables six percent of chinese in 2011 say there have been times in the past 12 months when they did not have enough money to buy food that they or their family needed down significantly from 16 in 2008 over the same period the percentage of americans saying they did not have money for food in the previous 12 months more than doubled from 9 in 2008 to 19 in 2011 but yes china is posed for a hard landing a banking crisis or any number of troubles that the intellectually bankrupt western meritocracy and its hangers on fantasize about posted by purple at 11 40 pm no comments the trade deficit dean baker says the u s is currently running a trade deficit that is equal to 4 percent of gdp and would rise to closer to 6 percent of gdp if the economy were at full employment this is not sustainable unless we think that countries will give us their products for nothing indefinitely since there is nothing to replace the dollar internationally as a supposed store of value there is no reason to believe that the u s trade deficit will reach equilibrium any time soon this virtually guarantees the continued decline in the financial condition of the u s working class who have since ww2 functioned as the world s buyer of last resort the absorber of global overproduction therefore the crisis of 2008 was just a beginning at some point the us government might very well tell the various swf s of the world that the 0 s on their computer screen are worthless default capitalism has not resolved its contradictions posted by purple at 10 50 pm no comments corporate greed the 99 meme of ows is far better than the media shaping going on around corporate greed of course corporations are greedy that s what it take to survive and make money and the fix for such a problem is more charity so bill gates therefore is part of the solution billionaires can t save us nor should we want them to posted by purple at 8 47 am no comments kristoff speaks it seems to me to be one of the background challenges our economy faces and it s an issue of fairness yet it has received very little attention until recently historic inequality is a background issue posted by purple at 12 11 am no comments friday october 14 2011 the bill of rights it is almost embarrassingly radical viewed in the context of today s political landscape the right to peacefully assemble shall not be infringed upon instead we have fascist minded gangsters like bloomberg allowing us rights within a limited time frame that they bless sorry fucker rights are inalienable they are not granted by governments priests or bosses posted by purple at 6 15 pm no comments sunday october 9 2011 who is this slavoj žižek fellow speaking at occupy wall street remember the problem is not corruption or greed the problem is the system that pushes you to give up beware not only of the enemies but also of false friends who are already working to dilute this process in the same way you get coffee without caffeine beer without alcohol ice cream without fat they will try to make this into a harmless moral protest they think unintelligible but the reason we are here is that we have enough of the world where to recycle coke cans starbucks cappuccino where 1 goes to the world s starving children it is enough to make us feel good after outsourcing work and torture after the marriage agencies are now outsourcing even our love life daily so this avowed leftist believes people shouldn t be able to marry non americans or shouldn t have the freedom to choose who they want as their partner regardless of national boundaries the point being if someone feels free to publicly shame or critique with the implicit aim of censure a person s personal decision in affairs of the heart they are totalitarian in mindset what a load of sanctimonious prattle most of the intellectual left is 1 occupy wall street posted by purple at 7 57 pm no comments thursday october 6 2011 republicians and unemployment i have heard many republicans recently claiming concern about the plight of the unemployed this is because a democrat is in office nothing more or less it s ok to admit the economy sucks because the other side is supposedly in power posted by purple at 3 09 pm no comments wednesday october 5 2011 nypd and ows police forces in the u s are unaccountable now and this draws a certain personality type trying to divide the blue shirts versus the white shirts isn t going to work in the main never trust a cop ever in or out of uniform posted by purple at 8 16 pm no comments saturday october 1 2011 ruling class lying coming fast and furious a police commander used pepper spray on four women at last weekend s march and a video of the incident went viral on the internet angering many protesters who vowed to continue their
