So the socialist commies have destroyed Cyprus as well and
the blame as usual falls on Capitalism and the banks.

Typical!

wow

it's on now bitches

they are literally going to rob your fucking bank accounts!!

I'm starting to understand why they are so hell bent on disarming the people now..

it's going to be an out and out robbery!
 Quoting: ^TrInItY^


They are taking what has been theirs the hole time. You are the ones giving it value. If you did not strive for it then what would its value be. Just because they say it's worth your efforts to work your whole life over, does not make it so...but you did.

Tax it when you work for it


Tax it when you spend it

Take it if you save it

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1278561


Yes, and when they can no longer find any other way to fee and tax you to death, they will now outright take it.

Now that they are so 'in your face', it makes one wonder what they know. That they just don't care anymore that you know they are crooks means that they have weaseled their way into a position of safety for themselves and know you can't do shit about it. Scarey for the rest of us.

Re: EU - Cyprus confiscating 10% of all bank depositors money
It looks to me as though they are creating a run on the banks on purpose. I mean seriously how can they do this in a country of only 1 million people and expect the rest of any eu member states to leave their money in the bank and think it's safe. This is just plain old thievery. This is real fucken doom right here.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24970002


Yes, this is a "test run" as this article from Forbes makes clear:

Every so often, a moment comes along when you learn something important about how economies work. Thanks to the Euro area member states, we’re about to get one of these moments. Next week, we’re going to find out how people react when their bank deposits are at risk of being confiscated.

Re: EU - Cyprus confiscating 10% of all bank depositors money
Depending on how Putin and the Russians react to their money being confiscated (80% of the Cyprus bank depositors are Russian accounts), this could be the trigger that starts the domino collapse of the derivatives market.

If the Russians say "Oh hells no! We'll show them who they're fucking with", they can start the derivatives collapse to bring down the "TBTF" banksters.

Russia is probably in good position to survive a global economic collapse because their economy had already collapsed years ago and they are the second largest oil producers in the world. Not to mention that Russia has been buying as much gold as they can get their hands on recently.

The shit is about to hit the fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TRANSFER all your account balances to other sources.

If you can't withdraw money, over pay your credit cards and have a balance due or a check mailed to you, then cash the check.

Or, set up a paypal account for yourself, transfer the funds from your bank account and then use paypal to shop for all your food online.

I repeat, transfer all your account balances to other sources.

And so it begins.... All Cyprus banks this weekend have frozen electronic transfers while a bailout is brought in. There will be a "bank holiday" on Monday and then on Tuesday, March 19th, 10% of every bank depositors savings will be taken and transferred to the central planners and central banksters.

Re: EU - Cyprus confiscating 10% of all bank depositors money
I will be withdrawing my paltry sum from the bank tomorrow , I dont have a lot of savings but its MINE.....this is going to create a lot of problems for the banks , people are not as trusting as they were , I d be gutted to go to the ATM to find out I couldnt not withdraw my own money then the government had taken 10% of it....thats cruel !!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26448516


If people all try and do it at once they will find out there isn't that much cash.

Also the only way you can withdraw all your money at once is to close the bank account.

Yes indeedy and it's not actually 10% of all savings accounts. It's a lower percent under a certain level. It's still bad but people need to get their facts straight. Dear me - it's not as if it isn't all over the MSM as well as sites like this.

Hell I'd give the U.S. 10% of my savings if it would fix everything. It would be less than 100 bucks for me, I'm poor as it is.....
