Greece to Probe the Rich

money

______________________________

Greece’s Financial Crime Unit will check the income sources of 1,700 Greeks who suddenly became super-rich in the crisis years of 2010-11. Among them are ex-ministers, MPs, political party leaders, football players, doctors, and lawyers. Greek tax authorities have a special Elenxis system, which allows them to compare income, and taxes paid as well as reveal shadow accounts. The Crime Units will also check the assets of 54,000 Greeks who have transferred some 22 billion Euros (878.4 billion Roubles. 28.5 billion USD. 17.8 billion UK Pounds) to foreign banks since 2009.

Editor’s Note:

Orthodox people… let’s keep this short… Paffhausen, Potapov, Dreher, Mattingly, Reardon, Whiteford, et al just go into orgasm over the Republican defence of the Affluent Effluent. Reflect on that… it’s in direct opposition to Our Lord Christ. The Greeks are starting to chase down the affluent rapists of the economy of their country… we should do likewise, starting with Willard Romney and Darrell Issa… I wonder what the above-named individuals would think of that?

Any road, 22 billion Euros is only 2,000 Euros per Greek (80,000 Roubles. 2,600 USD. 1,600 UK Pounds), and it works out to only 40,750 Euros (1.63 million Roubles. 52,700 USD. 32,850 UK Pounds) per capita for the cohort under investigation… I think that the really big boys are swimming away scot-free, and that the Affluent Effluent controllers of the rightwing New Democracy government are trying to assuage popular anger by allowing it to pursue second-tier tax cheats. However, if SYRIZA wins the next election (and it shall), watch for the flights to London to be packed to the gills… they’ve all bought flats in Belgravia next to Berezovsky and Abramovich just for that eventuality, y’ know (they’re greedy and corrupt, but they’re not stupid)…

Greek Newspaper “Ethnos” Accused Church of Greece Higher-Ups of Tax Evasion

______________________________

On Monday, the newspaper Ethnos reported that the Greek Ministry of Finance Economic Crimes Department is probing the bank accounts of two top officials of the Church of Greece in a tax evasion investigation. Ethnos alleged that the Greek financial authorities discovered that Metropolitan Kyrillos Chrystakis of Thessaliotida, Fanari, and Pharsalos had “dozens of millions” of Euros in his bank accounts. The money, which came from donations, property rents, and investment, was also in accounts of their relatives, which are also being investigated. Ethnos claimed that officials said that they have a list of dozens of church officials and priests who have more than 100,000 Euros (4.025 million Roubles. 130,000 USD. 81,000 UK Pounds) in their bank accounts in Greece and abroad.

The Church of Greece claimed that the reports were possibly a part of a “deliberate” media smear campaign and urged avoiding making conclusions whilst an investigation is still underway. Spokesmen for the Church of Greece leadership told the Romfea.gr religious news agency that the media information campaign could be in “pursuit of certain goals”. The Church said the matter would be brought before the Holy Synod only after the results of an investigation are announced.

8 October 2012. A Point to Ponder… Good Ol’ Cicero Describes Wee Willy Romney to a Tee

Here’s Wee Willy’s attitude to the rest of us… after all, taxes are for us “little people” to pay… he’ll keep his money hidden from Uncle Sugar in the Cayman Islands, thank you very much (yet, he wants to run the government, fancy that).

_____________________________

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious, but it can’t survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he’s known and carries his banner openly. However, the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustle through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor, he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

******

Willy is a traitor. He refused to serve in the forces in time of war, even though he was both physically and mentally fit for military duty in the war zone. He had his gazillionaire daddy buy him a bogus “clergy deferment”… whilst other poorer men went to the front (and some died). He hides his money in overseas tax shelters; he has no qualms over the fact that such financial chicanery increases our tax burden. Apparently, Willy agrees with Leona Helmsley, “Only the little people pay taxes”. He’s not even ashamed that his federal tax burden is far lighter than that of many who have only one percent of his income. He has the unmitigated and brazen gall to attack President Putin, but I’ll say that Vova has the decency to keep his family and his religious faith out of the public spotlight (he considers the airing of such a “political striptease”)… Wee Willy doesn’t… that should tell you something, too.

In short, the above proves that he isn’t a patriot at all; he’s a self-centred and selfish traitor. Yet, he has the goddamned gall to run for President of the USA. “Nice” is NOT “good”… we forget that at our peril. Besides that, don’t fail to recall that “legal” isn’t synonymous with “moral”… I think that’s an important distinction for us to bear in mind, too. Willy loves his money more than he loves his country… that’s why he’s the most dangerous form of traitor. Mammon worship is treason, in spades (look what it did to Willy… he hid his money abroad, but he wants to spend it here without paying tax on it like everyone else does). Deus videte et iudicare (Let God see and judge)…

Woe to those who call good “evil” and evil “good”…
