Take a good look at this. This is the wealth tax that is every liberal wet dream. It will be proposed here before long. It is also communist/socialist to the core.
Remember this in our next election and make sure we do not let the liberals ever again control both houses of congress and the white house.

Have they considered a withdrawal tax? Take to money out Tuesday (or whenever/if ever the banks open) and you get hit with the tax. Keep it in until the crisis is over and you might get 100% back. Otherwise you are setting up a situation where customers are in the same financial position at far less risk by staging a run on the bank first thing when it opens.

The socialist elite learned a valuable lesson from Crete. If they would have only taxed the deposits over 100,000 euros there would have been less people yelling. The communist and Alinsky types are experts in class warfare. This is only the beginning and the wealth tax will be coming our way in the near future, especially when social security, medicare, and pensions start to fail.

The failure of Free Trade Communist Globalism just continues on

Cyprus should just tell the EU to stick it....if they cave now to a deposit tax....the EU will want more later
