It's Greek Protest Time All Over Again - Follow The Latest From Athens Live
The past few days have not been good for Greek GDP, since every single day we have seen thousands of protesters occupy the Athens parliament square, the location of so much more of the same back in 2010, in what has so far been a series of peaceful protests. Today's, however, appears to be the biggest. Luckily, the market is about to close which means no restraining order on Waddell and Reed is necessary. Then again, ES does trades all the night... when liquidity is negligible to begin with. Hmm. Anyway, watch live developments from Athens at the link below.

Bullish. Thousands of broken windows.
Don't forget broken bones, buy some healthcare stocks!
Yes good point! Broken windows create demand for glass repair men ,this then, is good for the economy. This Keynes guy really knew his shit.
BROKEN WINDOW FALLACY! ANOTHER JOB CREATED *SMASH* BROKEN WINDOW FALLACY, ANOTHER JOB CREATED *SMASH* BROKEN....
Keep repeating until economy is fixed.
When will the American sheeple wake up?
It will take alot to wake people up here. The media blackout is so complete that most people I know haven't the foggiest idea of what is going on. And they are so accustom to getting screwed that they really dont ask any questions anymore. Sad.
The reality is that most ppl benefit from the Ponzi - at least in the short-term. Easy credit, gov jobs, MIC, banks, benefits, etc. Of course, it's all unsustainable. The tipping point will come some day when reality catches up ... But it will be a rude awakening.
The tipping point will be the day all the government checks stop going out; then 57% of America is going to alternate between desperation and rage, and scare the complacent bullshit out of the other 43%.
Maybe, just maybe, something will start to change at that point.
+100 Bingo !!
i have a proletariat rise up cap. in size small no less!
When they can't afford cable, gas, coffee and beer. So pretty damn soon.
I think a more appropriate question is, do they want to?
american sheeple? greek, spainard and irish sheeple still hold money in their banks, and their time is up!! somebody pleeeeeease explain how massive banks runs havent brought down their fractional card game by now. where is the logic here?
In Spain we have programmed a (hopefully, though doubtfully) massive bank run for the 30th, in the context of all the ongoing protests. If the one which had Eric Cantona as front man didn't work, I don't think this one will. At least we'll let the banks know they're our targets too.
Not that I don't support the idea, but if you inflict any damage on the Spanish banks, you'll likely only succeed in giving more leverage to the ECB/IMF cartels and their "unrefusable" offer.
Money doesn't stay in my chequing account long. I usually withdraw it all the day or day after it goes in, and either stash it or turn it into metal.
bingo.
Dutch bank run averted by cancelling management bonus payouts: http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2011/mar/27/dutch-bankers-bonuses-axe...
When the people get hungry. That's what it will take.
Thus SNAP.
EOS.
maybe after nba playoffs... maybe
and there is a chance football session may be cancelled!
Just wait till there's no NFL next year, and no $1 menu at McDonalds...
Then it's zombie apocalypse time.
I saw an absurdly long line at a chick-fila drive through today at lunch time. Just out of curiosity, I went inside and barely anyone was there.
We're so FUKKKED
Word!
It's impossible to predict when the working masses decide they've had enough.
When they do, you can be certain that many commentators here will side with the Banker-Gangster parasites against them when shit goes down.
By the looks of it the Greece is headed for elections. Big mess ahead.
...i wouldn't be surprised if italy were thinking of elections, too...
Looks like Greece needs to put flouride in their water.
Better still: prozac.
try lithium. testing it now, which means they have probably been adding for years already. this is no joke:

Like anybody cares...

Yeah the best $250 investment I have done in a long time was get a RODI machine for the drinking water at home. It is for my saltwater fish tank but also I use it for my drinking water. Its nice to drink 0 ppm water. Even my sheeple girlfriend thinks the water tastes great. Its kinds funny, the tap water used for the fish tank will KILL the saltwater fish but its supposedly safe for us to drink.
btw, do you know thah ALL potable water in north africa comes from one single water source?? amphetamin fracking? LOL
Why? Have they all got rotten teeth on top of their other problems?
3 day weekend. Time for some global market rocking news. My fearless prediction, the Greek PM will announce in the next few days that he will put the austerity decision to a national referendum.
Markets freak out since they know it will get 10% vote and it will trigger the Iceland path.
look, i just saw leo and his brother out there in the street throwing M 80's and petrol bombs..........oh my...........
i think they were singing "My aim is true" by Elvis Costello no less! Talk about newsworthy!
"Allison" by Elvis Costello contains the lyric "My aim is true."
its time to go Greek on their asses...YUCK
talk about bush league....
Time to seperate the men from the boys in Greece...
with a prybar
Twenty eight Mexicans just died in the endless drug war.
Compare and contrast.
Good work, CIA.
Hope it was profitable for you. Where were your guns on the other end going?
Well according to some people.on CDs thread these anarchists should just go home pay their bills, keep quiet, and roll over peaceably; what shite.
Umm... anarchists do not protest for government handouts. Which part of self-rule leads you to believe this?
Anarchy != Chaos

archduke ferdinand moment coming soon to Pakistan.
Globalist fucks are going to throw us right into the China/Russia meatgrinder.
Which contractor did it?
Or was it alCIAda?
Just wait for this shit to hit the fan,apparently China is threatening to go to war with the US over intervention in Pakistan.
http://tarpley.net/2011/05/21/us-pakistan-near-open-war-chinese-ultimatu...
If they did, it is bullshit.
China will eventually have to solve their boy:girl ratio problem.
Southeast Asia. And no one would care.
I'm hanging tight and studing charts. Keep posting and learning. Thanks for your posts RFK.
How's it?
China has been threatening to nuke LA for years now. Kind of lame at this point.
Destabilize Pakistan, you say? Like when Condi Rice talked Bhutto into returning home to lead her people? Or backing the ever popular Musharraf who enabled GWoT to take root in Pakistan?
I can't imagine why anyone would want to destabilize Pakistan. That's just crazy.
Way too old school. Pakistan is destabilized. That was the plan. India?
'On the other hand, since the average Zero Hedge reader has the attention span of an HFT algorithm'
True enough.
For an instant there, I thought I was in a different thread.
Send me an ALGO DS? I'll give you credo if it's consistent and workable in muti-plat-forms.
Not getting the feed for some reason - buffering to infinity.
Maybe they are jamming Ireland in particular....................
No need to bother really - we are well trained.
Same here in B.C. Canada.
WHAT RATIONAL SANE GREEK KEEPS ANY MONEY IN HIS/HER GREEK BANK ACCOUNT?
How do I go long the revolution?
Water, food, weapons.
...and torc rings.
Ever read The Many Colored Land series?

Another captcha winner!
Welcome.
Give em all a shot of OUZO, and an olive branch! Did any one catch the wicked witch of the middle world. (Hint) IMF candidate? Broom Hilda at her best! The EC head is her broomstick!
WHAT RATIONAL SANE GREEK KEEPS ANY MONEY IN HIS/HER GREEK BANK ACCOUNT? yes i repeat this question
Smart ! Keep the loot under a ? I won't tell. But I know.
Ruckus by public sector employees does not impress. They are merely the lower echelon of the dictatorship of the bureaucracy, just trying to maintain their place at the trough. The revolution/civil war will begin when the independant working and middle classes get riled and find a leader.
From what I hear, there aren't any.
I tend to agree.
We're all focused on the banks because that's our thing, but I think something like the TSA pedofiles is more likely to push the American people over the edge.
Most people still don't know what the Fed is, but everyone knows it's wrong to let strangers fondle your kids.
