Περιβάλλον

Θα πειστούμε ότι οι πολτικοί έχουν σοβαρό πρόγραμμα για το Περιβάλλον μόνον αν δούμε άμεσα εκστρατεία για την απομάκρυνση των πάσης φύσεως σκουπιδιών που έχουν κατακλύσει την Ελλάδα (2007)

Κρίση και Προοπτικές ...

Τίποτε δεν θα γίνει αν το κράτος δεν γνωρίζει επακριβώς και ανά πάσα στιγμή τι του γίνεται.
Οι σύγχρονες κοινωνίες το έχουν επιτύχει χάρις στις τηλεματικές τεχνολογίες, δηλαδή πληροφορικής και επικοινωνιακών δικτύων.
Οι άθλιοι των Αθηνών, έχουν επιτύχει εν μέσω παγκοσμίου κοσμογονίας, να έχουν αποτρέψει τις εφαρμογές στην Ελλάδα.
Τώρα, αυτό πρέπει να είναι το κύριο μέλημα της κυβέρνησης και το απόλυτο μέτρο επιβολής από την πλευρά της Ευρωπαϊκής Ενώσεως, προκειμένου η Ελλάδα να μην πτωχεύσει και να ανακάμψει (2008).

Οι απαιτήσεις των καιρών ...

Οι απαιτήσεις των καιρών ...
- Ως πολίτες απαιτούμε το πολιτικό σύστημα και στην Ελλάδα να εκσυγχρονιστεί και να ακολουθήσει καινοτόμους δρόμους συμμετοχής των πολιτών

- Ως πολίτες πιστεύουμε ότι όλοι μας πρέπει να επιστρέψουμε στην κοινωνία, ένα μικρό έστω μέρος των πραγμάτων που αποκτήσαμε στη ζωή μας



Τόσο απλά ...

Καλογραμμένο παραμύθι, με όνομα …


The simple guide to what went wrong in Europe

Helga is the proprietor of a bar.

She realises that virtually all of her customers are unemployed alcoholics and, as such, can no longer afford to patronise her bar.

To solve this problem, she comes up with a new marketing plan that allows her customers to drink now, but pay later.
Helga keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the customers loans).

Word gets around about Helga's "drink now, pay later" marketing strategy and, as a result, increasing numbers of customers flood into Helga's bar.

Soon she has the largest sales volume for any bar in town.

By providing her customers freedom from immediate payment demands, Helga gets no resistance when, at regular intervals, she substantially increases her prices for wine and beer, the most consumed beverages.

Consequently, Helga's gross sales volume increases massively.

A young and dynamic vice-president at the local bank recognises that these customer debts constitute valuable future assets and increases Helga's borrowing limit.

He sees no reason for any undue concern, since he has the debts of the drinkers in Helga's bar as collateral.

Helga, flush with borrowed money, gives in to the increasing demands from her employees and dramatically increases their rates of pay and installs what are the community's best working conditions.

At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert traders figure a way to make huge commissions, and transform these customer loans into DRINKBONDS.

These "securities" then are bundled and traded on international securities markets.

Naive investors don't really understand that the securities being sold to them as "AA" "Secured Bonds" really are debts of unemployed alcoholics.

Nevertheless, the bond prices continuously climb, and the securities soon become the hottest-selling items for some of the nation’s leading brokerage houses.

One day, even though the bond prices are still climbing, a risk manager at the original local bank decides that the time has come to demand payment on the debts incurred by Helga's bar.

He so informs Helga.

Helga then demands payment from her alcoholic patrons, but being unemployed they cannot pay back their drinking debts.

Since Helga cannot fulfil her loan obligations she is forced into bankruptcy.

The bar closes and Helga's 11 employees lose their jobs and all their accumulated entitlements.

Overnight, DRINKBOND prices drop by 90%.

The collapsed bond asset value destroys the bank's liquidity and prevents it from issuing new loans, thus freezing credit and economic activity in the community.

The suppliers of Helga's bar had granted her generous payment extensions and had invested their firms' pension funds in DRINKBOND securities.
They find they are now faced with having to write off her bad debt and with losing over 90% of the presumed value of the bonds.

Her wine supplier also claims bankruptcy, closing the doors on a family business that had endured for three generations, her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor, who immediately closes the local plant and lays off 150 workers.

Fortunately though, the bank, the brokerage houses and their respective executives are saved and bailed out by a multibillion dollar no-strings attached cash infusion from the government.

The funds required for this bailout are obtained by new taxes levied on employed, middle-class, non-drinkers who have never been in Helga's bar.

I trust that clears it up for you?
