It seems
that the European Parliament is coming round to what I have been
saying for well over a year. Martin Schulz, president of the European
Parliament, stated on Saturday, when speaking of the economic crisis
in Spain, that it could spark a social explosion across the
continent. In an interview with the German Newspaper, Bild, he said,
“The demonstrations in Spain show that a social explosion is
looming because of the high unemployment rate among young people in
Europe,” It should be obvious
by now that bailouts solve nothing, it is just shuffling debt around
the table. It is a game of big numbers that is meant to impress, but
doesn't mean a thing. The only people who gain in this illusion are
the bankers, the financial Mafia, they collect a fee every time their
sweaty hands pass the bundle around. Greece shook them a little, but
Greece is not a big player in the corporate greed game, Spain is. The
unrest in Greece is on the periphery, Spain is considered mainland
Europe and is big. Unrest there would have the financial Mafia really
worried, as the rest of Europe is suffering under the same
“austerity” plan. It is all just a matter of degree and time. As
the “austerity” plan in each of the countries in Europe drives
the people deeper into poverty and deprivation, it would only be a
matter of time before the whole of Europe shows it anger and despair
and takes to the streets. They would be fools if they didn't, and I
have never taken the people to be fools, naïve, too tolerant, but
fools, never.
Where I think Mr Martin Shulz is
wrong is his belief that it is just the unemployment that will cause
the explosion, I believe it will be the breaking down of the social
fabric of society through poverty, and destruction of social
services, on top of rapidly rising unemployment across the continent,
all seen to be caused by the greed and corruption of the few. We can only plan and
hope that the “social explosion” will seek answers outside the
present system and will not be appeased by being thrown a few
biscuits, while the parasites go back to their banquet.
