Nice breakdown of what's going on in Greece and the Ukraine. Yes, we allow banksters and their corrupt institutions way too much power and secrecy in the World-in the US we must dismantle the Federal Reserve and break up their "too big to fail banks", which have been parasites on the people for way too long.
Instead of prosecuting bankers and letting their corrupt institutions rot into bankruptcy as the free market would dictate after 2008-we bailed them out by the Trillions and allocated to them even more control of our economy. Everything our Government does is for the benefit of these institutions instead of the people-we are protecting their stranglehold on our economy instead of addressing the real problems of fraud and corruption and working toward alternatives.

Very well said. We should have let them fail. Probably 95% of the people who had money in the bank were average middle class Americans whose losses would have been coverd by FDIC. All loans would have been written off and the filthy rich would have lost their money except for the 250k FDIC coverd. After this played out another bank woukd have opened to fill the gap.
Instead, they gave the rich folks who created this mess trillions and screwed the middle class. In 2008 we began to create the largest gap in income equality since recorded history. It stands today.
Agreed. Basically we have a situation where a few, unelected bankers are dictating political and social policy all over the world. The royal families have reemerged in a new form and are making serfs out of everyone by laying enormous debt on everyone, debt there is no hope of ever paying back. Now, as in the former days of old, the serfs not only cannot pay back the debt, they are no longer able to service the interest on the debt. But this doesn't stop our new Lords from extracting every last once of blood before allowing the serfs to just die from hunger. Laguarde makes me puke.
There were warnings against this throughout most of our country's history.
Yeah, not only did Thomas Jefferson warn us early on. But Lysander Spooner probably gave the greatest indictment against the bankers in human history, 150 years ago.

But what has been done? And what can be done?
The Spanish elections have shaken the bankers to the core, since potentially gives Greece an important new ally against the ruling oligarchy. As the article points out, the Troika cannot give an inch to Greece for fear that grassroots movements will begin to form and revolt in Spain, Italy, Portugal, etc. The recent Spanish elections give much reason for the oligarchy to fear a spread of this new Greece led a anti-oligarchy movement.

Good, I hope it spreads here. And it becomes the French Revolution on Wall Street and Washington D.C.
A man can dream.
Changes in Europe would have a direct impact on the economics in the U.S. which would have substantial political implications. Thus, the Obama faction of the U.S. oligarchy is now involving themselves in the Greek Affair.
