First, more developments from Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma United Suckers and Assholes Dictatorship and gargantuan, humungus, astronomical Debt nation.
It gets better and better.
Impossible to miss, yet, the morons continue to do so.
"Citigroup's top economist tapped for Treasury post....Citigroup chief economist Lewis Alexander to become counselor to Treasury Secretary Geithner":

On the opposite side of the pond, as 'they' say, the following. By the way, alittle factual aside for those interested.
Prior to volcanoes and continental drift, Scotland and NYC were geographically attached. One unit. If you could live long enough, they will eventually slide back together.
I wish it would happen in my lifetime.
But, I'm afraid it will be long after I'm gone.
So, back to events on the other side of the pond.
First, some VERY important developments in Greece:
"New repressive and legislative measures aim to create state of siege for the Greek capital..."
I will highlight the very last paragraph in the following/above report before the link. MY emphasis in BOLD:
"...The new measures are expected to rise rather than dampen social tension, especially as the government has lately proved its propensity towards totalitarianism, amongst other things by appointing the old propaganda chief of the colonels’ junta as director of the state archives, thus placing the future of both academic and independent research at the hands of one of the darkest figures of recent Greek history. The current government is run by the Nea Dimokratia Party, the immediate successor of the junta and a transformation of the post civil war royalist party that filled the islands with concentration camps for communists in the 1950s..."

And, from France. A juicy EXCERPT first. Link below:
"Up go the barricades as universities voice anger at Sarkozy...
Lecturers and students accuse French President of ‘ultra-capitalist’ attempt to privatise education system...
Strikes and protests by lecturers and students which have disrupted French universities for six weeks are threatening to turn violent and merge with broader anger against President Nicolas Sarkozy's reforms and the economic crisis.
Student barricades closed two universities in Montpellier in the south of France today and sit-ins last week exploded into scuffles, vandalism and even death threats.
Despite concessions by the Education Ministry, an arcane dispute over the status of lecturers and other university reforms shows no sign of easing. The government also faces a one-day general strike and street marches against the recession on Thursday and there are fears the education dispute could become the focal point for prolonged and wider social unrest...."
FROM THE FOLLOWING...
And, what about here, in Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma United Suckers and Assholes Alice in Wonderland Through the Looking Glass Darkly Dictatorship?Well, by now, I think you should have an answer to the above question. Not much of anything. Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma's collaborative unions continue investing in private corporations and supporting THEIR reactionary policies at home and abroad.
Noises are made here and there by them about various symptoms, but, never the causes or their own complicity in these policies. It is merely window dressing. Makes it look like they are doing something. Do not bother yourselves about it. This too shall pass. Noises also emanate about Israel, Gaza and the poor, suffering Palestinians, along with some Left wing infantile rhetoric, as Lenin would say.
And, that's about it for the ersatz Opposition in United Suckers and Assholes nation.
