Throughout Europe the rate of unemployment is growing. Throughout Europe the rate of youth unemployment is growing exponentially. Throughout Europe Economies are stagnating, slipping into recession. Even outright depression has already reared its ugly head.

What else do the high and mighty overpaid power hungry “leaders” of this wretched continent need to see, just see, that their dogmatic, unrealistic, cruel and vicious politics are failing miserably? A failure that will ultimately swallow down the very same “strong” and overbearing factors insisting on this slow and fatal destruction.

But, I suppose, this utter barbaric, cruel idiocy in the powers that be in Europe is not new. It has happened several times before. Most notably in the first world war where millions, yes millions of young men were slaughtered for… what? Several meters of land to and fro at the trenches. Something like that is happening now.

Blind dogmatic and yes, sadistic insistence on a policy that not only does not work but is positively destructive.

Of course the power hungry like the ones “leading” Europe today derive their sense of power and their thrills from the very misery they have the power to cause on the weak. This “success” feeds into their psyche and they are blinded to anything else. Drunk and delighted by their power to inflict untold pain, they turn up the heat more and more.

Until it all explodes in their own face. leaving such a debris behind. Millions dead, as in the first world war, millions dead and taumatised, as in the second world war. Millions suffering from grief, hunger, despair.

Is that your vision of Europe? If so, you are, once again, doing an excellent job of it.

Which is why I felt we did see some beauty at the end of the Final Match of the Euro football. Not the actual sport or who won and who lost, but because the Spaniards (as I am sure the Italians would also have done) showed us what life is really all about. Not deficits and debts and austerity and fiscal rectitude of a kind defined by those who do NOT pay, but our children.

The sight of the team’s children, taken on to the pitch and let loose to run about joyfully after their Daddies’ success brought tears to my eyes. Regardless of who won and who lost. At that moment it was a win for Europe’s future. Our children. We cannot keep ignoring them and condemning them to a life without hope.

This Nonsense Economics and dictatorship by the financiers and their political lackeys must stop.

Now!
