GREXIT QUESTION: I just read an article about Grexit and the MoU that expires in the summer of 2018. Let’s assume Greece exits EU and the Euro, what would happen to Greece and it’s people? What hardships would Grexit bring to the Greek people and what could individual Greeks do to prepare themselves for these hardships? […]

Greece Slides Back Into Recession Amid Riots, Rewewed “Grexit” Calls It was just over a year ago that Greece elected Alexis Tsipras and Syriza amid a flurry of anti-austerity sentiment.

Varoufakis: “In 1967 There Were The Tanks And In 2015 There Were The Banks” It was back on January 31 of this year, long before the “game theoretical” approach of Greek negotiations with the Eurogroup and ECB in particular and the Troika, and now Quadriga in general was revealed, that we first forecast with absolute accuracy […]

URGENT WARNING: 6 Signs the Great Crash Is Upon Us!
URGENT WARNING: 6 Signs the Great Crash Is Upon Us! The Greek default proves that all this endless quantitative easing idiocy couldn’t live up to the promises.

The Greek parliament caved into totally repulsive demands, as I said […]

The Kicking of the Can
The Kicking of the Can Hello, Mr. Tusk … New Orders Yesterday it emerged that the normally hardline European Council president Donald Tusk (the former prime minister of Poland), suddenly felt “debt relief” for Greece was needed after all. While he is undoubtedly correct, it seems to us that he likely received a stern phone call from […]

Varoufakis’ Stunning Accusation: Schauble Wants A Grexit “To Put The Fear Of God” Into The French Earlier we reported that Yanis Varoufakis, seemingly detained by “family reasons” would be unable to join his fellow parliamentarians and personally vote in what is likely the most important vote of Syriza’s administration: the one in which he and his party […]
