You don’t have to go to Europe, Cyprus, Spain, or Greece to see the collapse that is coming. It is here. Every day in our grocery stores with millions and millions charging off food (lots of junk food) on EBT cards the rest of us have to pay for.

This is the face of post-modernism. Once you throw out moral absolutes then anything can be rationalized.

Two women were walking through Hawley on the morning of Sept. 7 when they noticed a naked man who appeared to be covered in blood standing in the shadows of a garage near a vacant home at 521 Hudson St. They moved on but Nancy Dean-Corino was tackled a few minutes later. She testified in October that Mr. Cimino wrapped his arms and legs around her and she felt something gnawing on her head. After his grip loosened and Ann Monaghan was able to get a good look at her friend, she saw Ms. Dean-Corino was covered in blood but none of it was her own. It all came from Mr. Cimino, who had deep wounds on his hands and arms that left muscle tissue exposed.

François Hollande’s former budget minister and tax tsar was charged with tax fraud following a shock confession that he had held a secret foreign bank account for 20 years and had repeatedly lied about it.

This could never happen in the U.S., not with upstanding guys like Tim Geitner as Secretary of the Treasury.[tiny bit of sarc]

You DO NOT want to be on the bad end of this.

What's the good end?

Yeah there is corruption in Europe, and it is nowhere near as bad as in the U.S.

Here corruption is rampant in the societal hierarchy, and it is very easy to get away with it, if you are aligned with the left side of the equation, however if you are on the right, just the accusation of corruption, of even the most minor offense, will lead to absolute destruction.

On the left, proven corruption, whether financial, or moral, etc, there is absolution, and restitution.

On the right...even the wildest unproven, zero evidence, of accusation, there is only unrelenting total annihilation, with no chance of recovery ever...unless of course you join the left as a most repentant useful tool.
