Let the socialists try that in the USA. Watch the rebellion.
None of the sheep will rebel, because they will have traded a "risky" investment for a guaranteed pension.
Watch for this plan to get some momentum if Pres Obama gets a Demoncrat House in 2014. It will be announced right after the next big stock market correction - they have to "save" our retirement funds.
Maybe Cyprus doesn't have a 2nd Amendment.
Socialist? You have it backwards.
There are two ways this can go:
1) These people invested with banks that went insolvent. Bank can’t pay them, so their customers lose ALL of their money.
2) The government takes a loan from the EU, indebting the country and destroying its credit rating in order to save people from their own bad decisions.
So, which one is socialist and which one is capitalist? You’re mad at the EU because they’re only going for 40% socialist. You think they should be 100% socalist.
Have already started considering yanking my savings out of the bank so Obama(care) can’t steal it.
It has already been done but not at banks. The firms AMBAC and AIG had bond holders lose their bonds and they were replaced by common stock.
When the air clears, the devalued stock rises in price. The rise in price of the stock will improve the position.
This should have happened at GM but did not. The tyrant in the White House stole the total bond holder position and gave it to the UAW. The Black thief is no better than the common ghetto street criminal.
“Let the socialists try that in the USA. Watch the rebellion.”
We have gone too far toward the mecca of a total utopian society and the “takers” far outnumber the “makers.”
The current gun control and health control issues prove the point. Over the past 50 years our public indoctrination centers (public schools and universities) along with politically correct TV, movies and all forms of entertainment, and special rights for all but the normal law-abiding citizen, have destroyed the core values of the American citizen that used to exist prior to 1964.
No, the sheep and lemmings will simply do what they are told to do without question.
Today they are coming for our guns and the general population cheers with glee that we will all be saved from violence by our master, Obama.
Tomorrow they will come for your retirement savings, checking balance, personal property and all manner of personal financial security and wealth once the private ownership of guns has been taken care of.
It’s coming as sure as rain. It’s a “one way street” with no possibility of turning off on another road.
“Bread and Circuses” killed Rome and now the same is happening to us.
The only hope we have left is a civil war to restore the values given in our original Constitution as it was written. It cannot be done by educating the public as to what has happened to them over the years since the public school system and the Marxist universities and secondary educational institutions along with the main stream media gained complete control of the education and morals of our citizens and their children.
That may be why Homeland Security bought a stockpile of ammo and armored personnel carriers.
The plan has already been put in place
>>Let the socialists try that in the USA. Watch the rebellion<<
Like the rebellion in California over a retroactive tax? Like the rebellion when started Social Security, medicare and the Rx entitlement? Like the rebellion when obamacare passed and is starting to squeeze the Middle Class?
Like the one that will happen they take our 401(k)’s?
Like those rebellions?
But the Welfare class don’t have savings. They would support it.
“Let the socialists try that in the USA. Watch the rebellion.”
They just gotta sort out that irritating little gun problem first.
It already has happened here.
One of the big differences between the United States and Cyprus is that the U.S. government can simply print more money to get out of a financial crisis. But Cyprus cannot print more euros, which are controlled by international institutions.
