And other experts and other measurements of GDP/Debt show we are nothing like as deep in the doo-doo as Greece, so don't start warring yet - if Portugal and Spain default then it might be worth investing in a gun. What annoys me is that everything depends on how the "market" feels about the situation. billionaire investors, hedge funds and bond dealers - well fcuk them, it's partly their fault we are in the shit we are (along with all the tossers with 125% mortgages). I'm a peaceable kind of guy and generally against violence - but in the case of the 5000 or 6000 people in the world who control the "market" I'd make an exception. I think we'd only need to kill the top 300 or so and the rest would fall into line. How much fun would it to see that slimy git who runs Goldman und Sachs, paraded thru the streets before being hung drawn and quartered in front of that Bull in Wall Street. George Soros' Head on a spike in London - brilliant. The Saudi Royal family hung by their heels from the roof of the Riyadh Mercedes Dealership. We have all these expensive "special forces" running around Iraq & Afghanistan killing farmers and cutting down crops, surely they'd be better off decapitating the market? I think I'd better go and have a lie down. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
