Greeks to Germans: Thanks, suckers!

Germans are angry.
It is only a matter of days until Germany starts handing out billions in aid to the Greeks, according to Chancellor Angela Merkel.

But for some experts, Greece is just a bottomless pit. And now anger is increasing in Germany, with many asking why they should pay for things like the luxury Greek pension system.
Sounds a lot like are public pension system. Pay up, suckers!

You-know-who is currently looking for a criminal attorney to assist him with his STRAWMAN crap.

Not a "criminal defense" lawyer, mind you, but a bonafide criminal who may also happen to be an attorney.

Is anyone in the judicial system going to send these scammers to prison once and for all? Seriously.

I am so happy to be long the dollar right now. I wonder if the Euro will cease to be within, say, a couple of years?

Stop it. Even if that was a joke you're going to get into a bad habit.

Yep the fat cat unions exploiting the working class...it is time the citizens of the world unite against the unions...oh wait I think there are a few billion workers in China and India who are ready, willing, and able...that great sucking sound is just one of the cures to union greed. Yep, and denial is not going to cure anything.

If you think it will get worse AND you think that the worst isn't already priced in, there is always the short ETF on the Euro, "EUO". Just sayin', cause this couldn't have have happened to a more smug bunch of people.

The silver lining of a great zeropean sovereign debt crisis might be a realisation stateside that this is where the US can be just a few years down the road, some states ahead of others. Our demographics would permit a recovery from that brink. Europe on the other hand is doomed, at least as we know it.
