I have a strong feeling this entire attempted bank heist would have gone down a lot differently if Cyprus had a Second Amendment. Which is exactly why the Founders put it in our Constitution.

The latest idea floated by the Cypriot government, the “Solidarity Fund” was rejected by the troika about an hour ago.

The Russians don’t seem to be forthcoming.

Well, I guess they can always sell the whole enchilada to the Turks. Heckuva bargain-basement price: €20 billion for a nice Mediterranean island. LOL! I’m being facetious, of course.

I don’t want to see people suffer on either side (whatever the “sides” are).

Some of the comments on that link are comedy gold!

Like this one:

This is step one. Step two is seeing "CypriotCupid.com" web ads -- that when you know the economy has tanked and they have only one asset left....

The Cypriot Government is run by idiots. The best way to steal people’s money is the Bernanke model.
