I read this article in TheTelegraph and thought perhaps I should try to keep it quiet, as it is
the sort of thing that our government of pampered Oxbridge
millionaires would jump at. Think how it would fit into their
austerity plans, think of the savings to the social spending bill,
housing thousands in caravans with little or no facilities or
amenities. It would be in keeping with their plans for tougher
sentences, (more people in prison for longer terms). If you can't get
them into prison to form a cheap pool of labour, then dump them in
“scum villages” They already have plans to open up the prisons
to more of their corporate friends as a means of a cheap captive
labour force, not covered by the normal health and safety regulations
and with no union rights. This Dutch plan would just fit nicely into their "deficit reduction" plans.
Apartheid comes in many forms and
in this corporate world, we are divided into our various groups, to be
exclude or included. The most common form of Apartheid in the Western
world is what I call “financial Apartheid”. You are exclude from
whole speres of society because of your lack of money. With this “scum
villages” plan you would be excluded because you behaviour doesn't
fit their shape of “normal” and you would be banished to the shany
towns dotted around their efficient profit producing labour camps.
Read the full article HERE:Amsterdam to create 'scum villages'
Amsterdam is to create "Scum villages" where nuisance neighbours and anti-social tenants will be exiled from the city and rehoused in caravans or containers with "minimal services" under constant police supervision.The new punishment housing camps have been dubbed "scum villages" because the plan echoes a proposal from Geert Wilders, the leader of a populist Dutch Right-wing party, for special units to deal with persistent troublemakers. "Repeat offenders should be forcibly removed from their neighbourhood and sent to a village for scum," he suggested last year. "Put all the trash together." Whilst denying that the new projects would be punishment camps for "scum", a spokesman for the city mayor stressed that the special residential units would aim to enforce good behaviour.
well living with the kind of people that will be sent to these places i have to say i agree with the idea. i live in a town where 2 or 3 family cause most of the trouble,ive verbally abused on the street for no reason other, so is it fair that people that abide by the law get aload of crap of these scum, no,not if they have been given warnings about it
ReplyDeleteI don't live in your area, so can't speak for where you live, but perhaps a more community based response, rather than relying on the "authorities" to sort it all out for you, might be a better approach.
