Tyler Durden is on his game today, discovering some shocking details in the fine print of the latest and greatest Greek bailout. Not only will Greece not receive a single penny in the latest bailout, but the terms actually require Greece to fund the escrow account account slush fund used to bail out European banks! You read that right...the latest Greek bailout actually is a GREEK FUNDED BAILOUT OF EUROPEAN BANKSTERS!!!
Now we've seen it all.
First, as a reminder, even before the current bailout mechanism was in place, Greece barely saw 20% of any actual funding, with the bulk of the money going to European and Greek banks (of which the former ultimately also ended up funding the ECB and thus European banks). Furthermore, we already know that as part of the latest set of conditions of the second Greek bailout, an 'Escrow Account" would be established: this is simply a means for Greek creditors to have a senior claims over any "bailout" cash that is actually disbursed for things such as, you know, a Greek bailout, where the money actually trickles down where it is most needed - the Greek citizens. Here is where it just got surreal. It turns out that not only will Greece not see a single penny from the Second Greek bailout, whose entire Use of Proceeds will be limited to funding debt interest and maturity payments, but the country will actually have to fund said escrow! You read that right: the Greek bailout #2 is nothing but a Greek-funded bailout of Europe's insolvent banks... and the Greek constitution is about to be changed to reflect this!

The ponzi slush fund continues, created by the banksters, for the banksters to "buy" up the world.
It's NOT our debt!
I'm going to buck the trend here and applaud the Europeans. This is a momentous day, as they have finally figured out how to create "SELF BAILOUTS"! Don't you all see what this means? Once this hits the general public, no one will be indebted ever again as we will be able bail ourselves out of credit card and mortgage debt!
I'd say this calls for the finest Champagne money can buy. Heck make that two!
Austerity and the Greek protests are mere distractions.
The real issue is that the Greek people really need to make a choice here, either take back their country or let their politicians sell them into slavery. It boils down to this:
1. Default like Iceland and start their recovery process, long & painful though it may be.
2. Take the bailout debt to pay a small part of the original debt to get a few months of deluded relief. Then lose their collateral - gold, national treasures, islands... Become debt slaves to the banksters for, well, ever.
I really, really, pray that someone gives the Greek people the true info on what is going on so that they can make an informed decision.
