George Orwell
War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it
Arthur Schopenhauer
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed, Third, it is accepted as being self-evident
Greece continues along a path toward self-sufficiency that could very well see them break free from their debt servitude.
In the wake of their pillaging by international financiers, Greeks who have realized that protesting is likely to bring little relief have begun to implement barter systems to meet their local community needs. Through a combination of decentralization from the Euro, free markets, local cooperation, and the creation of a new currency based on productivity, markets like the one below in Volos are leading the charge to a restoration of the principles that build truly sustainable economies.
This is an encouraging sign, and one that is replicating throughout austerity-ridden economies the world over. International currencies are increasingly being rejected in the face of reduced living standards through inflation and outright theft by global banksters.
Americans would do well to learn from the truly revolutionary actions taken by individuals in deliberately collapsed countries, because if global (mis)managers have their way, a similar scenario is guaranteed to unfold in the United States.
