Over To You Merkel: Greek Govt Approves Bill The Greek People Soundly Rejected
The Greek parliament has approved the proposal Alexis Tsipras submitted to creditors on Thursday. The ball is now in Europe's court with a Eurogroup meeting scheduled for Saturday.
- GREEK LAWMAKERS APPROVE GOVERNMENT'S BAILOUT PROPOSAL: TALLY
As expected, Energy Minister and Left Platform leader Panagiotis Lafazanis voted against the proposal as did Parliament speaker Zoi Konstantopoulou and Deputy Minister of Social Security Dimitris Stratoulis.
If new FinMin Euclid Tsakalotos can secure the support of his EU counterparts tomorrow, the path will be cleared for Greece to remain in the EU under a new program.
- GREEK PM TSIPRAS SAYS GOVT AVERTING A POLITICAL GREXIT
- GREEK PM TSIPRAS SAYS PEOPLE DIDN'T GIVE GOVT RUPTURE MANDATE
- TSIPRAS: AGREEMENT WITH CREDITORS ISN'T CERTAIN, JUST POSSIBLE
- CREDITORS MAKE POSITIVE EVALUATION OF GREEK DEBT PROPOSALS: AP
- TSIPRAS: GREECE WILL MANAGE TO STAY IN EU, AS EQUAL PARTNER
- GREECE BAILOUT TO BE 74B EUROS BASED ON CREDITORS' EVAL: AFP
It remains to be seen how Greeks will respond to the decision. Given the similarities between the "new" proposal and the proposal that 61% of Greeks voted against last Sunday, there may well be pushback from voters and a generalized sense of betrayal among Syriza's core constituency.
Underscoring the contentious nature of the vote is the following from Bloomberg:
Fifteen governing Syriza party lawmakers who voted “yes” in parliament vote on Greek govt’s bailout proposals to creditors say they oppose the plan, according to statement distributed to journalists.
Lawmakers say proposal shouldn’t have been approved by Greek parliament; they backed it only because they didn’t want the govt’s parliamentary majority to be put into question.
Lawmakers say their “yes” vote shouldn’t be interpreted as acceptance of implementation of austerity measures.

Fucking pathetic.
That's all I have to say.
This vote was to authorize negotiations. If press reports are accurate, another vote will be needed to actual pass the proposal.
Or they expect to be rejected and are posturing - they may simply want to push the blame onto Merkel for booting Greece. There was an article on ZH earlier this week about their belief that Greece was going to be kicked out regardless.
I agree.
"Fuck this up Troika and guess what...
Golden Dawn is Greece's only chance at surviving as a nation.
Why should we want nation states to survive? Arent they the obsolete and lumbering idiots of social organization. We have the internet.
After that the end will come, when he will turn the Kingdom over to God the Father, having destroyed every ruler and authority and power. 1 Corinthians 15:24
61% is nothing.
Though no referendum was ever offered, here over 90% of voters did not approve of banker bailouts yet the vile scum in Washington took our money and gifted it to bankers in utter contempt for the people.
Politicians aren't worth shit.
Governments represent their own best interests and will do as they must to survive, including the sacrifice of the stooges who initially empowered them.
This fact is evidential to all of those who are not intentionally blind. Government is the most evil and vile of all human institutions. They are not an neccessary evil. In fact they are deadly to those who spew that type of propaganda bullshit.
HANG.ALL.POLITICIANS
and bankers....
BUY SILVER
I feel bad for the Greeks. They said no, Tsipras say "meh -- don't care."
Golden Dawn, you're up.
I knew that Greece was going nowhere. I now see the DOW rising to 30,000. The capitalist scum of the earth win again. Suck it, Hedgers.
fuck greece, fuck politicians, fuck the whole euro ponzi scheme. this is blatent control via print.
i mean, talk about in your face. the people said oxi, but instead of doing right and enduring some tough times to be proud and independent, the money for easy path is moar valuable(TO THE POLITICIANS THAT WANT TO STAY IN POWER) than the principles.
same fucking shit will happen here. too many free shitters to reform without chaos; basically the long and short - TOO FAR GONE DOWN THE ROAD OF SOCILAISM to avoid CHAOS!
scandal, s07 : welcome to greece, olivia pop open office in athena....
E.M.C premiere january 2016
true democracy is fucking dead, gone.
revolution and bloodshed is the only solution...
say happy birthday to the day of doom, destruction and the dark age of banker destruction of human liberty.
the ONLY price to be paid for that hope-liberty...
agreed, but to the extent that politicians want to stay in power, they also want to stay alive. wondering if tsipras got the whisper in his ear that kennedy ignored...
For the life of me, I haven't decided who is more stupid. The Greeks for becoming slaves, or the idiotic creditors giving them even MORE money. The ONLY thing this does is make the Greeks slaves, and keeps the debt owed by the Greeks on the books as a "good" asset. Everybody can pretend a little longer that everything is ok. The inmates are running the asylum!!!

I betcha somebody's getting rich off of this.
You know what? If the Greek people allow their own government to do this to them---immediately after the referendum, which could not have been more clear--- then they deserve every bit of pain they have coming,
The creditors aren't stupid. They're going to be just fine.
Government is what you make of it. Most of the worlds governments are working for the best interests of corporations not the people. That is mostly due to folks not realizing how important their pericipation in government is.
It's little errosions that get passed that skew the slope, that at first seem trivial. Eventually the pesants have little control. This is what most of the worlds governments have become.
Who, exactly, is this "we" who have the internet? If we is the NSA and not you or I then yeah. Otherwise, wake up.
As to the rest of your post, right on.
The internet is not God.
I never said the internet was god.
Exactly. The internet is real.
Because the nation is the only concept that can fight banks and the oligarchy in general.
Horseshit. Name me one current nation fighting banks or oligarchy.
Amazing what a little complicity will do for your favorite pol's voting record.
Ever heard of Iceland?
Iceland is an Urban Legend.
Iceland merely enacted capital controls and to this point: stole all of the little man's money.
Bravo.
If Iceland is your best example, then Greece will be your Utopia.
bullshit.
iceland jailed the banksters that were playing the bailout heads i win tails you lose game and trying to put the county on the hook for their ticket to play.
Golden Dawn leaders are in jail, how convenient...
The GD leaders are the canaries. As long as they are in jail this is a charade. When they are out, game on.
Edit: I want to add that it is game on because the population is thinking and acting for its own good. Maybe today they think that voting is acting but tomrorrow they are mistaken as "voting changes nothing."
Who knew?
Ballin, I kind of agree here. I wonder if it is a political decision to force the EU to call the Grexit. Its judo again, use their momentum against them. Certainly Greece sets itself up here to look very willing to compromise for the bankers. EU kills itself by rejecting these appeasing proposals, and exposes itself as very draconian indeed. Political win for Greeks, and shift to the BRICS bank or something. One thing is for sure. Something's got to give.
If the can can be kicked and the important "leaders" save some face then yeah, this is what will happen. Brics don't matter.....yet.
But they will, one of 'em.
The only "Brics" that Tsipras needs to worry about are the ones that will be hurled through his office window on Monday.
Fortunately this 'yes' parliamentary pass is only a super re-intensification of the austerity which the Greek 'democracy' voted 61% against, 1 week ago.
However, examine the speech Tsipras gave after that parliamentary 'yes' vote. Paraphrased he said, "this confirms the validity and confidence in the PM and the new Finance Minister, and in the Deputy PM."
Yet on the streets, Syriza party members were shown tonight on 'news' tearing up their party memberships, saying they feel incredibly betrayed, on the verge of very frstrated tears, protesting the complete collapse of democracy.
And Tsipras feels his govt has just been bestowed renewed credibility by a chamber 'yes' vote?
No. He knows perfectly well that he's personally just totally trashed his govts cred andhis own cred, he and his govt just did the exact opposite of its election mandate to rule, and referendum election as well, in about every way possible.
Total betrayal of the electorate's will, with the strong intensification of austerity terms, equates to a vote of confidence for giving in to that?
In other words, he's far less principled than any Greek PM before him, and personally decided the people must have no choice at all, just have the bait dangled of a fake electoral 'choice'.
Untenable, non-credible, unbelievable, non-trustable ... and a whole bunch more.
was the vote to give Tsipras "fast-track" authority to negotiate?
That's what I thought Tsipras wanted.
Anyhow, Greece is screwed if it stays in the EU.
The EU overlords now intend to sign up for Obamatrade
with TISA and T-TIP (the transatlantic version of TPP).
An answer to your prime question: yes.
Prepare accordingly.
Except it is too late.
Problem is that the EU will want to make an example of Greece... so that the next batter up does not pull the same play.
This has very little with sensibility, its all about control.
The Greek government too a resounding No and turned it into a Yes. Do you think they actually give a fuck what parliament voted on?
Tsipras Iscariot and his 30 pieces of silver, setting up Greece for a crucifixion.
Y-Anus got the 30 pieces of silver. Tsipras will have to settle for a set of steak knives.
Glen Gary Glen Ross?
Yes.
Steak knives, like nailguns, have their values.
I thought that movie was even more depressing and horrifying than The Road.
Sorry you got it wrong. The German tax payer got it in the shorts. The greeks will be greeks, and not really enact what they passed. Many times leading up to this I had written it was going to be a 50-100 billion to kick the can 18 months. Now it is looking more like 150 Billion (ELA, bailout, bank recap).
The key is that the players necessary for the next act are viable (believable) and in position. For example, the speech. Note the music, production, vomit.
Obummer made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
More like Kissinger, A zeroheader posted a pic of them together in 2012 looking pretty chummy.
Is there ANY GOVERNMENT in the WORLD
that is NOT FOR SALE??
"Is there ANY GOVERNMENT in the WORLD that is NOT FOR SALE??"
NEIN! NEIN!! NEIN!!!
Oxi.
oximoron
Ox(i)moron: -- Poliitical Representative. Case in point; one of many but topical for the Greeks;-
Can you remember when the Greeks voted this mob in (I believe it was the prior election to the last one) but the two major parties (apparently traditional bitter enemies), banded together as a coalition to deny the people their voice? Well the disenfranchised voter eventually called on this mob (another coalition) to represent them also, believing this group of "representatives", would abide by their promises to represent the will of the people. These bastards and molls interpret the will of the people as they want, even if it written in plain english as constitutional law. That's what you get when you have a monetary system which encourages unfettered debt, graft and corruption. They know that the people don't have any money left to pilfer so they go to where the money is. They know that The State will suckle them. They are the same and the system is the same the world over, so why wait..... They won't represent you (as a people); they can't. It's not who they answer to.
Rise up.
There is some drawn out logic to all this.
The Greek Oxi and Crisis has forced the IMF and ECB to 'agree' and voice that a 'haircut' or extension, or some other adjustment of the existing debt is required, in the long run.
This was actually probably the desired outcome, by both Greece and EU ! (and US and world)
Now, all future loan(s) will require debt service arrangements, not just for Greece, but any other EU member.
There was a major paradigm shift this past week...and the environment has changed, so that now pre-existing debts must be 'handled' too.
I don't think so, which is why I am an anarchist. Unlike the lefties that want to toss the existing one for one more to their liking, I want to replace it with NOTHING!
The Sudan has anarchy...have a visit and report back
Basing a government-less white society on how negroes do things in Sudan is never a valid comparison.
The negroid has a long history of not being able to create cohesive communities/nations.
I am currently in a white enclave in Central/Eastern Europe with no police presence, no government on the local level, and very limited existance on the national level. Heaven.
As John Perkins said, they make you an offer of "we have a check for millions in one hand and a gun in the other..."
Which would you choose?
How about you put a bullet in his head instead?
There are people in this word that cannot be threatened in such a manner. However these are not individuals that gravitate towards politics.
Oxi?
Wow they even fooled ME into thinking something was actually going to happen this time. Steven Spielberg should be jealous.
You have to wonder about the basic intelligence of those idiots.
I wonder about their "base" intelligence, but that too.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_and_superstructure
This should tell all of you if Greek isn't that important and everything is okay for them to leave why not let them leave and default and whatever? Because it's not okay and they are scared of what may happen next and the markets and banks that lent that money aren't able to take a 200 billion dollar hit.
torch the parliment...
and then KILL THE POLITICIANS....
and then KILL ALL THE BANKERS...
death to the MoneyChangers....
The sheep were given a hair cut today.... Then ANAL LIZED.
Never trust your fucking politician..... Fire bomb that son of a bitch.
Bow to Euro-Xerxes Spartan!
Just following the bubbles...now EU is totally "on board" with a 'necessary' haircut.
So, why would the lenders loan out more money now ?
I mean Varoufakis has completely got IMF and ECB to agree haircut will be immediately required to allow Greece to survive politically to 2016.
So, why would the lenders loan out more money now, that they agree there must be an immediate haircut ?
How/why won't the recently educated lenders just hold off a while and get a better deal, without big haircut...but maybe just extensions or some extruded micro-thin survival payments ?
Won't Latvia force the Greek Pensioners, who will get major austerity now, to their knees long before this deal is done and signed off by all (now) ?
One big fat Greek fuck up.
Yes, funny and agree but is it any different where you live, apart from the smoke and mirrors still functioning, that is?
Oxi morons?
It is so ... Dramatic (how they setup this new Greek deal). Now everyone is part of the action, and all are bought in and (Greek) boarded.
Drama ! Drachma ! Dreck !
LOLOLOLOL. Fuck you Y-Anus. How heavy were those suitcases?
This is completely unremarkable.......
...But still you just can't make this stuff up.
Yes, (this is yet another) GREEK DRAMA !
His name was Arnold. Benedict Arnold.
And the "ne's" have it! (though nay to them means yes).
Father Government knows best.......
They need to put this latest proposal (nearly identical to the week ago proposal) to a referendum. It will get the same OXI!
Wonder what Tsipras costs? Another fucking cunt politician selling out his people
Tsipras is no fool unlike his former Financial Minister. His demands are two Mini Coopers and a room full of Greek longshoreman and a tub of bacon grease.
Hence his new nickname: PM Tippyass.
I don't think he is for sale, unlike the previous political leaders. He is just a dummy. Seriously, that is the explanation. He has bought into the EU b.s.
He has a Century 21 sign stuck up his ass. He is for sale.
For all those naive twits that think Bernie Sanders is gonna shake things up...think again. This is what happens. A dose of fuck you charlie flying out of a horse's cock at 100mph.
OXI?
I wonder if that plea will that carry any weight for him, as he is being hoist upon high on a lamp post?
And the kick is good, he kicked that can to 2018.
It's ok. I will just attach a longer handle to the pitchfork so that I can reach them from further away.
It will be a hoot if the creditors now reject the proposal. Tsipras will have sold out his people and have nothing to show for it.
Nuland convinced them that the economic hitmen would be followed by the jackals if the NATO puppets did not stay in line.
Nudelman's interest in any country in the free world is a terrible omen for that particular country. Misfortune is sure to follow in the forms of political coercion, monetary servitude and the loss of sovereignty, and if you dont play along, expect the destabilization of your government, social unrest and outright terrorism. It's the neocon modus operandi of the 21st century. What's really fucked up is that so many nations recognize it but are too cowardly to stand united against it and break it up. Expect Russia and China, of course. The entirety of the EU is fully complicit.
Surprise surprise, a dirty diaper hits you between the eyes.
Granted, he's scared for his people, but there MUST be a way for him to default. Continuing is simply unsustainable - even with the concessions.
Is this just a game he's playing with Germany? Does he think they'll reject it anyway? or push for even more to give him more cover for an exit?
He does have the printing presses still...
The Greeks have the printing presses, but their printing plates say the bills are printed in Greece. Nobody will accept those notes, and will be treated as counterfiet.
Even if they default and exit, that doesn't wipe out the loans.
It's very easy for the EU to cripple the Greeks if they don't comply. They simply refuse to accept the Drachma, and demand cash in hard currency, in advance, for all purchaces.
"You want euro BITCH?!!!
HERE COME ONE TRILLION EURO!!....
Why can't they trade with the whole rest of the world excluding the EU?
"Even if they default and exit, that doesn't wipe out the loans."
Y'see, that's the argument I just don't get. Yes, the rest of Europe and the West can make life miserable for Greece, but if Greece did like Iceland and simply said, "Fuck you very much, but you get nothing!", what is the EU going to do - roll in a couple of Panzer batallions? I think Greece would be smart to tell them just that and start dealing with the East. At least if they're going down they can take this whole fucked-up house of cards along with them...
They could do what they did to Yugoslavia, false flag, then the media blitz followed by "humanitarian" NATO bombing campaign.
There is a big difference between Iceland and Greece. Iceland had a banking crisis but Greece has a crisis with their entire economy.
Iceland was, and is self sufficient with a trade surplus (Greece has had a trade deficit for decades). So Iceland can, and did, survive very well without continuing international support/loans. The entire economy in Greece is a disaster, and they aren't even close to being self sufficient.
Iceland was just overly ambitious and their house of cards came tumbling down when the recession hit. They didn't borrow themselves into oblivion like Greece.
Very different strokes for very different folks indeed. Greeks are simply not Nordic peoples and it shows in every financial dealing.
I am no fan of Iceland, but what you have posted is accurate.
It should also be stated that Iceland stole all of the depositors money while it could still be stolen... Greece enacted capital controls after the vast majority was already withdrawn.
It's my understanding that Iceland didn't steal the people's money. They DID let the bank fail and the depositors suffered. Cyprus stole depositors money. Is that what you're thinking of?
Iceland did what the world should have done. It refused to socialize the losses by transferring the private bank debt into sovereign debt and as a result of this, and the points the person you're responding to made, they recovered quickly.
Only it's bank suffered thereby pissing off EU bankers.
In contrast, Greece's problem is ALREADY a sovereign debt problem.
Are there any hard currencies?
Just like a woody, hard curriences exist today, but have a limited lifespan, then they get ED.
What a fken loser government ... no wonder that country is in shamble. Government just approved more slavery for mas populous.
The government gives the people exactly what they wanted. It is a failing of democracy.
A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.
They really are losers. First of all there are too many of them -- 300 in the Parliament for a country of 10 million. If they found 100 worthy people, they would be lucky. It should be the best and the brightest making the decisions, not these moronic cowards.
Define "best and brightest" because we are already governed by educated idiots, so you surely cant mean the products of our universities?
Besides the Bank's money, the Bank holds the Title Deeds, and the houses and hotels prior to purchase by the players. The Bank pays salaries and bonuses. It sells and auctions properties and hands out the proper Title Deed cards when purchased by a player, it also sells houses and hotels to the players and loans money when required on mortgages.
The Bank collects all taxes, fines, loans and interest, and the price of all properties which it sells and auctions. The Bank "never goes broke." If the Bank runs out of money, the Banker may issue as much as needed by writing on any ordinary paper.

TREASON by cheap euro whores...Greek politians lining their pockets!!
Again. Anybody left on the planet with balls? I'm beginning to wonder.
The People Republic of Donesk, the 82nd Airborne, the PPCLI and probably a few more.
Interesting to read the comments hear.
"Having had the vote he now lays the country prostrate before the Troika.
This might be political suicide...he certainly is no traitor though. "He stands there to be blamed" actually.
This sounds an awful lot like a kid with an enormous amount of character.
I mean...why have the vote in the first place indeed!
"Now go ahead and shoot me!" appears to be the only answer....BUT YOU DID GET YOUR VOTE TOO.
I think this really does "stick it to the Troika" whatever all The Backbenchers say.
"Behind them stands the Real Troika" of Russia, Britain and the United States.
What do you mean with "Behind them stands the Real Troika" of Russia, Britain and the United States."?
I've never seen anyone else with similar POV. Please explain.
FWIW, I think he's forcing Merkel into a corner. Germany will look HORRIBLE if it refuses. If it accepts, the Greeks will continue pulling deposits post bailout and default later... Meaning Germans on the hook for more all the time... The German and French people should be furious at their politicians for yet another socialized loss /private gains for their banks...
Greek legislature votes to keep their checks rolling in and a big Malaka to the Greek people.
Leave the Euro and end this bullshit almost immediately? Nah, let's beg the ECB for help.
Even Keynesians would agree with me on this. If the bank you are under doesn't want you to spend more, simply leave and start your own bank. Problem solved.
Even if they leave the Euro, they STILL need MORE LOANS.
Just like in a sect you cannot leave
Now it will be worse for Greek citizens because they spent their Euros out of fear of bank bail-ins, now they will pay higher VAT. Get less in pension money if Merkel aproves it and they are broke.
I see a collapse either way with in 2 years for Greece.
We all get what we deserved, sooner or later.
It seems that the Greeks are every bit as stupid as the average American. Fearing bail-ins, they wasted their money on BMWs and washing machines rather than on AK-47s and RPGs which would allow them to deal with the government sellout. Oh well, I'm off to check out the latest sales on ammo. Someone has to be prepared in the US for what is coming our way.
Go ahead -- show up at a government building with your AK-47 and what happens? ...the police shoot you dead on the spot.
Let's see how well the Greek people take this. If they really had balls, they'd have Tispiras' head on a fucking stick by Monday.
Maybe this is true of all people, but it seems they only have balls when they have a leader to get behind. They thought that leader was Tsipras and that helped them to vote NO. Now there are many small, scattered groups that want to resist, but with no leader to bring them all together, unfortunately.
Time for new fearless leader.
Bahahahahahaha

Hey President Obama, you ever heard of Karma?
I expect we'll see the golden arches at the acropolis before that ever happens, and even then...fat chance.
well, trusty ole Ghordius did give us a heads-up, so at least I'm not completely shocked
Well he did kick the can 6 days , had people celebrating the NO vote instead of rioting and remembering the banks were closed. So he made it thru another long week. But Now if he really thinks Germany wanted them out all along, is the part I'm not buying. They want the debt paid by Greek serfs. I don't see this last move working and Greece rioting Sunday night. It's amazing the things people will do when addicted to paper fiat currency.
This has all been theater for the benefit of the rest of the broke Euro nations. The union must be saved and I believe that will include Greece, but Greece will be thrashed and disparaged as an example to all others who would otherwise pursue the deadbeat option. Remember, this is about the union...and nothing else. Everything was designed to serve the union, prosperity and crisis alike. The member states will ultimately be required to be on their knees before the union....and democracy is only relavent to reinforce teh will of the government, not direct it.
We see this around the world. Democracy is placed superior to individual rights and all constitutions as look as it advances the agenda. When not, it is discarded by courts or simply ignored. America has countless laws with public support that are ignored by those who have pledged to enforce them. We passed a law that stated we would build a border fence and impose other border controls, yet none are enforced or even funded. We have gun laws that are in direct conflict with our constitution, and even when SCOTUS has struck them down, they still persist under new names.
No, this is what democracy looks like and hopefully our tyranny is everything that was hoped for.
The Greeks are gonna get off easy.
President Lincoln killed off a few hundred thousand guys.
As long as we have a huge rally in Greek Banks on Monday, I make a few $100K, I am happy. We all know that sooner or later the Greeks are going to go under and out of the EU. All of the events over the past few weeks are irrelevent over the long term. I am surprised that there seems to be overwhelming sympathy for the Greeks and very little for the hard working tax payers of Europe who are afterall paying the Greeks for their lavish (relatively) lifestyle.
As a great wag once said:
"You can't fix stupid".
That great man was Ron White.
"I am surprised that there seems to be overwhelming sympathy for the Greeks and very little for the hard working tax payers of Europe who are afterall paying the Greeks for their lavish (relatively) lifestyle."
All is not what it seems.
Perhaps if we had debt free money and politicians with some respect for the people they govern:
So what the banksters create, bankrupts Greece and you feel sorry for the rest of the slaves of Europe who have to pay.
put the blame where it truly lies ,the Banksters
Sorry, NO ONE forced them to borrow endlessly. The Greeks and ultimately responsible for their own clusterfuck.
Where did Putin go, on a long holiday with the new girlfriend and baby ??? Or was he just not in the part of the play ???

Again.
I used to do drugs. I still do now but I used to, too.
That's some fucked up wisdom for the ages, my friend.
Now listen. I'm going to be the last mo'fo alive. Fact. I'd say "wait and see" but no you all will be dead already so that can't work.
I will be the last mo'fo alive. Like I said.
And when I'm the last one standing or I might be sitting down sometimes I am going to carve a tombstone. I am going to find me a rock and carve a flat spot on it. And when it is flat enough for my purposes (and I am not going to ask you fuckers anything on the subject, you being all dead and that) I will carve upon that flat rock an epitath.
For us. All of us collectively meaning here just for you my nigga's. Because I won't myself be dead as yet just say'n.
And it will say carved in stone by the last nigga that walked (you all being dead as dust by that time just so you have the correct context) it will say this:
"I used to do drugs. I still do now but I used to, too."
If it all will fit. I might need two rocks in fact but that is not to detract from the sentiment.
Which is that I love you guys.
So you know. That's what I will write. When I am the last one standing.
Are you Black?
Why are you afraid of the White Man?
Why don't you like Oblawhite?
Don't you know there have been hundreds of thousands of White Slaves sent here from England as they used Impressment to make sailors to work the ships, then they sold off the kidnapped White people in the USA as Bonded Slaves??

The people are betrayed by government again. The people of Greece had a vote, a refernedum, direct f'n Democracy and the government throws the people under the bus. I hope the people hang the bastards!
