the IMF and its Neoliberal theories...
became the laughing stock
of economists all over the world.
(I have 3 children and no job, please help)
Greece will pay dearl
for the intervention of the IMF.
And, in some cases, she will
even pay for it in advance.
Ron Paul -
Republican Congressman -
Ben Bernanke
Chairman of FED -
Argentina was confronted
by the IMF alone.
serving two masters.
Because, in Europe, Neoliberal
theories were also being promoted
Ironically enough, in the case of Greece
the IMF was softer than the EU.
The measures applied in collaboration
with the IMF, the ECB and the EU
are not only unfair
and dangerous to the Greek people.
They're also doomed to fail
right from the start.
They have a tragic impact
on the people's quality of life
they will have a positive effect
on the economy in general, and
the management of national debt.
Like in Argentina, the target was
to save not the economy
but rather the banks and the big enterprises.
stabilization measures
to prevent Greece from proceeding
to a cessation of due payments.
They are not measures
which will reduce the debt.
It is more than obvious that the debt
will continue to increase quickly
regardless of the measures,
and, indeed, as a result of them.
The measures aim clearly
to protect the lenders
to protect the banks.
Within a few months, the Greek
government gave the banks
EUR 108 billion
which is almost the entire rescue
package received from the IMF and the EU.
(Excerpt from the documentary film Social Genocide)
When Argentina faced
a similar situation
several of those responsible
were punished.
The image of presidents leaving
the presidential palace in choppers
still haunts both the IMF
and its collaborators.
One magical night,
just like in Argentina
we'll see who gets
to hop into the chopper first!
Year #1 after the IMF intervention.
Greece has entered an intensive programme
of "purging" procedures, "asset utilisation"
"rationalisation measures" and "tidying up".
The delegates of the IMF, EUand ECB have
taken up permanent residence in Athens
and are dictating their policy through
an unconstitutional memorandum.
Dominique Strauss - Kahn IMF Managing Director -
What is Greece today?
Are we a free country? Yes.
Are we independent?
No, we've been reduced to vassals.
Freedom is one thing,
sovereignty quite another.
Our country's problem is that
she has lost her sovereignty.
In splendid collaboration
