An ethical person - like a politician, banker or lawyer - may know right from wrong, but unlike many of them, a moral person lives it. An Americanist first already knows that. Bankers and their government agents will always act in their own best interests. Any residual benefit flowing down to the citizens by happenstance will just be litter.

Greeks in Crisis: Life in a shopping cart and a plastic roof over the head
Posted by

Men and women without job, without income. Men and women without home… A super market cart to carry what is left from once a descent home: some clothes stuffed in bags. Some blankets. A sleeping bag. A camping gas, a pot and a spoon. And a roof of plastic to give shelter from November rain and cold.
In an open park, somewhere in Greece.
No, we didn’t have such pictures here: in Greece of 2012, the third salvation year of the Troika, the Loan agreements and the austerity package bills.
‘Tourists’ in their own countries, ’campers’ by the force of law.
