Well, the famous meeting between the coalition party leaders of the so called Greek government has finally ended. The statements point to an almighty fudge. The Godzilla Monster (aka Austerity) is demanding blood! More blood! Greek blood! Taking the form of sucking at least another 11 plus billion Euro out of an already rapidly contracting economy.
The statements have taken the form of woolly platitudes. Nothing specific. No extra measures, the say for 2012, provided the measures we have already signed up to are taken. Well that’s more than bad enough! But the point is, I think, that although they know very well that they will have to slash and kill in order to provide the blood demanded by Godzilla, they are, at the same time, terrified of announcing this to the public.
So maybe, that is something. A little something. But things will only start improving, that is becoming sensible rather than the Nonsense ideas prevailing at the moment, when the fear of the people becomes greater than the fear of Godzilla. So maybe. Just maybe, this points to a small step in the right direction.
Don’t forget these squirmy creatures only managed to win the election by lying to the people through their teeth. So they are right to be terrified of the people’s reaction. Very right. In fact it is the only thing they may have got right yet.
