In Europe it's democracy vs. bankster austerity


This weekend in Europe it's democracy vs. bankster austerity


The world will be focused on Europe this weekend where voters hit the polls on Sunday to determine the fate of the banksters’ austerity regime.  Already – central banks around the world are preparing for a liquidity crisis next week should Greece’s far-left SYRIZA Party, which has pledged to break Greece’s current bailout agreement with the EU, win and investors around the world panic.

Elections will also be held in France, which just recently elected anti-austerity Socialist Francois Hollande.  In order for Hollande to get his pro-working people agenda of raising the minimum wage and stimulus passed, his party will need to win big in this weekend’s legislative elections.  Altogether – this weekend is a showdown between democracy and bankster austerity – and the future of the global economy hangs in the balance.  Stay tuned.

Listen to me LIVE Monday through Friday 3 PM to 6 PM on WWRL 1600.
