Let me tell you how it will be,
There’s one for you, nineteen for me,
‘Cause I’m the Taxman,
Yeah, I’m the Taxman.
Should five per cent appear too small,
Be thankful I don’t take it all.
‘Cause I’m the Taxman,
Yeah, I’m the Taxman.

(If you drive a car ), I’ll tax the street,
(If you try to sit ), I’ll tax your seat,
(If you get too cold ), I’ll tax the heat,
(If you take a walk ), I’ll tax your feet.
Taxman.

‘Cause I’m the Taxman,
Yeah, I’m the Taxman.
Don’t ask me what I want it for
(Haha! Mister Wilson!)
If you don’t want to pay some more
(Haha! Mister Heath!),
‘Cause I’m the Taxman,
Yeah, I’m the Taxman.

Now my advice for those who die, (Taxman!)
Declare the pennies on your eyes, (Taxman!)
‘Cause I’m the Taxman,
Yeah, I’m the Taxman.
And you’re working for no-one but me,
(Taxman).

Re: EU - Cyprus confiscating 10% of all bank depositors money
My opinion:Since the establishment of the EU.. national states are supedited to EU Laws. No national state member can issue laws that overrule or infringe EU laws. Its called legal precedence.

Instead of getting all emotional it has to be cooly looked at from a legal point of view consulting European Union Laws regulating banking, taxation etc..

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.

I can put it in there so as to bring you, the banker, my business. But I should be able to take it all out and close out my account when and if I feel the need to do so. You touch my money, I beat your ass! Simple! A thief is a thief. And I don't like a thief!

“What’s just happened is the IMF has backed up, lauded, supported, and publicized, as if it were a victory, the taking of 10% of what really turns out to be 80% of Russian ‘black money.’ Russian ‘black money’ is KGB money, now in business. The leader of Russia (Putin) was a former KGB official. Whose money do you think they have taken? This is the biggest mistake the IMF could possibly have ever made.”

Re: EU - Cyprus confiscating 10% of all bank depositors money
Welcome Back, Mr. Black Swan
Earlier this week, I posited to a friend that I believed that the US stock market was significantly overvalued and that a major correction was on the way. In light of that belief, I purchased put options (expiring in May and June) on three of the major market indexes (SPY, QQQ, and IWM). In addition to that bet, I also shorted shares of high-flying hedge-fund darling Netflix. I have no long positions. In light of recent market action, these positions look bone-headed, but given the tremendous amount of market complacency out there, my bearish conviction is strong and it continues to strengthen.

I hypothesized to my friend that a US-backed attack on Iranian nuclear facilities could be a potential catalyst that would send the global equity markets into a tailspin this year (and I still believe that to be the case). However, in my wildest imagination I didn't foresee (nor did anyone else) what just happened in Cyprus over the weekend. Cyprus declared that its banking system was insolvent and it needed a bailout to stay afloat. Instead of taking a bailout loan tied to austerity measures (a la Greece), Cyprus will be levying a mandatory tax on the accounts of ALL bank depositors. That's right - the government is forcing its citizens and businesses - not bank bondholders or investors - to take the haircut and pay for the misdeeds of its financial institutions. The notion of deposit insurance has been rendered worthless and the fragile trust between financial institutions and its customers has been eradicated. This is the most significant, game-changing event to have taken place since bank bailouts started in 2008 and it has global ramifications that can rattle not only global financial markets, global economic growth, and the livelihoods of millions of people.

Cyprus is a small nation in the Eurozone, but its neighbors - Spain, Portugal, and Italy are much larger and more systemically important. Their financial institutions suffer from the same bad debt as the banks in Cyprus did, but on a much larger scale. We all wrongly assumed until now that savers were sacrosanct and that regardless of how perilous the financial crisis became, bank deposits would remain safe and savers would be protected. But in light of the Cypriot debacle, depositors across the region - and the world - should and will actively question whether or not their money is truly safe.

The most important principle in the financial system has just been violated: trust. And that changes everything.

Welcome back, Mr. Black Swan. [link to techtrendsandmarkets.blogspot.pt]

Considering that the banks create money out of nothing, this is ridiculous. It appears that they're trying to start a worldwide bank run. Why else would they announce this to the world?
