BREAKING : Thousands of anti-capitalists block access to European Central Bank in Frankfurt

Just a slight problem with your theory - the Rothschilds are a family spread over several European countries rather than simply Britain. I cannot imagine the Austrian or German branches (for example) are working on behalf of Britain!

It all started from one man.

It is logical that family is spread throughout Europe (and other places too). Their business is global.

If you have very large amount of money, you will also have branches in all economically important places.

It is all about identifying opportunities and betting on the promising ones.

Let me explain to you in one more way - you cannot become very rich until you make the King very happy. Can you?

And why would a businessman fund wars, revolutions, and governments at war?

Hopefully they have success instigating change positively for the people directly and indirectly...

Well... turns out they didn't. Nothing has changed. The protest was a failure.

Of course. A few thousands people or even tens of thousands won't change a thing. We need millions, not thousands. Go back to sleep!

So wake me up when you have millions.

You'll also need a viable alternative to capitalism. Let me know how that works out for you.

To me it is not a case of getting rid of capitilism but getting rid of the curruption and dishonnesty and forceing personal acountability on to those at the top.

Issue is not capitalism or socialism.

Issue is there are powerful people who sabotage any system. Yes the issue is corruption that starts at the top.

The corruption can be controlled only if people are vigilant and smart.

If people get swayed easily (bought easily) then corruption cannot be controlled.

This is the curse of democracy. The government in a democracy will reflect the 'majority' of the population. If majority is ignorant - thats what government will reflect.

What illusion? What the hell are you even on about?

That there are some extremely corrupt selfish people at the top that need to face accountability?


Im ok with capitalism as long as it is not being run by dishonest greedy people who commit fraud and other illgeal acts and get away scot free! Otherwise it is no diffrent to communism! As in both systems the ones at the bottom always lose!

The original Rothshchild family sent a son to set up branches in 5 European cities, each son to operate independently. These "clans" have then concentrated on their areas (before globalisation). Obviously, whilst this wall to benefit the family, as with all such business models they then became separate (whilst still united). So, from very early on, they have all been in competition with each other.

The reality of these situations is that instead of working together, they are in competition (to a degree). This transcends national borders and national allegiances.

This is the typical model followed by merchant families.

The independence of "branches" may be well thought of as each operated under a different political dispensation.

They still must be deeply interconnected through secret information and money exchanges.

Even moving large amount of gold and paper money can be hazardous enterprise. No businessman can function without political patronage.

Storming the Bastille didn't look like much for starters, either.

More power to them, Woot!

I dont know. You tell me what the hell you're on about?

I do not disagree with your statement about capitalism. See my post on page 1.

If people have not noticed, the recent forced appreciation of European currencies is bad for Europe at a time when unemployment is very high.

European currencies are going up at a time when Asians are falling vs Dollar. This will crash European exports.

It almost seems that Europe is intentionally being destroyed.
