Bank confiscation in Cyprus
Depositors may have to take a 6.7 to 10% haircut on all deposits. Scary stuff:
Cyprus parliament delays vote on deposit levy to Monday | Reuters Makes Ben the Counterfeiter seem almost decent, especially since his scumbagry is easier to protect against via investment. |

No Prosecution
of the Banksters and other Wall Street Types is the BASIC problem...
AND allowing the Goniffs to get off,ONLY emboldens them further. I can guarantee you that as soon as a few heads appear on pikes, on Manhattan Island,Zurich,Etc.,Etc.,Etc. the "Affliction" will be Cured! Quick,Cheap,Effective! It's real hard for some Private Mortgage Banker to interest y'all in a Bag of Cat Poo (With a pretty yellow Ribbon) [That he/she SAYS is a Mortgage Backed Security] If they're so terrified they're peeing in their silk stockings!

@Compress Ignite -
Not knowing Cyprus well, I have no idea what their basic economic problem is -- was it a property bubble + malfeasance as in the US, or something else entirely (culture of tax evasion + handouts, for example). Not sure about the "French razor" as medicine -- studies haven't shown that the possibility of execution acts as a good deterrent. |

O.K. Forget "Prevention",Go Straight for the Cure.
Let it be forever Legal in every Jurisdiction to hunt down and Eliminate
(By the Mob's choice of Slaughter) All Commercial Financial Types. F**K reliance on Terror as a deterrent,Solve the problem Forevermore. "Show me one who claims to have need of the perfidy of Banksters, His/Her OTHER face is that of a Lobbyist." 'Not a Bad Idea THAT,to include ANY form of Lobbyist in the Elimination Scheme. 'Listen to this Fantasy,next I'll be suggesting we eliminate "Government By Thievery" (As Practiced in CONUS Today) AND allow everyone to Vote Online, Once a Week on All Matters. There would GO Both Congress and the Nine Quacks.

What do you propose to replace the financial system with? Barter? Gold?
I rather like to be able to pay with checks/bank-notes/credit cards rather than carrying a block of gold or driving around with a carload of stuff for barter. "Ten gallons of gas will cost you that chair strapped to your roof, sir." Last edited by spdrun; 03-17-2013 at 03:03 PM. |

Place was a money laundering site for questionable Russian funds. Probably 20-30 billion (out of 80 billion deposits) in Russian funds in those banks. Keep an eye on this one and see what happens in Italy. This has potential to be very bad, everywhere. All the ATMs in that country were emptyed out in hours when word got out of the plans. Now it looks like a week long bank holiday while the government there figures out what to do.

Cyprus confiscation
What is the difference between a 10 percent confiscation and 20 percent inflation?
|

10% confiscation only targets depositors.
|

20% inflation via the Bearded Counterfeiter is easier to defend against via owning stocks (including shares of REITs), since it's not instantaneous.

Closer to home, is anyone following last weeks report on Citibanks handling of the "London Whale?" Is Citi too big to go to jail?

Listening to BBC world Service and watching CSPAN Today
It seems LOTS of the deposits in Cyprus are Russian private Moneys which were put there for safekeeping as Cyprus is an E.U. member.
(Like 80 Billion dollars worth) Y'all can ONLY imagine all the Skulduggery involved in THAT mess. Watching senator Levin's committee on CSPAN this afternoon,it's plain that Officials at the Comptroller of the Currency dropped the ball on Bank Scrutiny! But the Bank's Senior President ordered the minion banksters to stop providing Financial information to the C.Of C.
