Tomorrow, October 28, the Greek army parades in Salonica. As usually, Greeks plan to sling eggs, tomatoes, and yogurt at piggish Graecokleptocrats! So, come and have a lot of fun!
Greek law, introduced by Venizelos, allows Greek ministers to get bribes, but it does not allow them to launder that money! That’s why out of all these ministers who got huge bribes, only Tsochatzopoulos got in trouble!
Graecokleptocrats have long been dubbed the untouchables. MPs cannot be touched, because they are protected by impunity, engraved in the ridiculous constitution of Greece! However, mayors do not enjoy impunity. MPs have received bribes and kickbacks amounting to two hundred billion euros since the end of dictatorship in 1974, and nobody can do anything about it. A seat in the parliament comes with a robbing license.
SHAME ON GREECE!
THE KLEPTOCRATIC ALLIANCE OF PASOK MAFIA AND NEA DEMOCRATIA MAFIA SHOULD NOT PRESIDE EU
THE FREAKISH GOVERNMENT OF GREECE STOLE MY COMPUTER, MY FILES, AND MY LIFE IN COLD BLOOD
Greece has all the right conditions for corruption: plenty of bureaucracy, kangaroo justice, laws with numerous loopholes, impunity of kleptocrats, and economic pressure. Regarding bribes and robbing the Greek Treasury, Premier Andreas Papandreou infamously advised Graecokleptocrats: We all agree, of course, that we are allowed to give ourselves a little present from time to time, but please don't make it too large!
All Greeks know most politicians are corrupt. Graecokleptocrats span the gamut of political corruption. Bribe is the gift bestowed to influence the recipient's conduct. Kickback is a payment to a person in a position of power or influence for having made an income possible. Embezzlement is outright theft of entrusted funds. Patronage is favoring supporters. Nepotism is favoring kin. Cronyism is favoring kith. Graft is an unscrupulous use of a politician's authority for personal gain.
Greece is the queen of political corruption in Occident. The impunity of the 300 MPs of the Grand Brothel of Kleptocracy on Syntagma Square is the most freakish thing on Earth. Even though Graecokleptocrats loot many billion euros in bribes and churning, Graecokleptocrats cannot go to jail! Graecokleptocrats are protected by the parliamentary immunity, and nobody can touch them, no matter what. Moreover, they have the nerve to jail dissident bloggers. It’s a long way from the 300 Spartans of Leonidas! Allons enfants de la Grece!
Michael Christoforakos, former president of the Greek subsidiary of Siemens, revealed some names of the 200 Graecokleptocrats, who shared two billion euros in kickbacks, to the prosecutor of Munich, where he escaped from Greece. He also deposited all names with two public notaries in Munich, in case he gets murdered by agents of Graecokleptocrats. This way he stays alive! But the Greek government has not pressed charges against the 200 Graecokleptocrats, because they are protected by immunity and they are in power in Greece, members and ex-members of the Greek government and parliament. You just cannot press charges against yourself! Moreover, the Greek government does not even reveal their names for the voters to know who they are voting for.
Christoforakos also revealed the names of twenty journalists who received many million euros in hush money to keep their mouth shut about the billion euro kickbacks to the 200 Graecokleptocrats. Needless to say, those Graecokleptocrats who did not receive kickbacks are also guilty, because they all knew about the bribery of their colleagues and said nothing about it. The suitcases with the cash were whistling around them. There is no way they could not hear all that loud whistling! So, in reality we are talking about four hundred guilty people! Since Greeks continue to vote for the same crooks again and again, they deserve what they get!
The Greek government never bothered to ask the Munich prosecutor for the Christoforakos list of 200 Graecokleptocrats who received two billion euros in bribes from Siemens. In another infamous list, SDOE is currently investigating the assets of sixty Graecokleptocrats.
The largest bribes originate in the military industry. Military procurement is a corrupt business from top to bottom. The process is dominated by advocacy, with few checks and balances. Most people in power love this system of doing business and do not want it changed. War and preparation for war systematically corrupt all parties to the state-private transactions by which the government obtains the bulk of its military products. There is a standard 10% bribe to kleptocrats for military purchases.
Participants in the military-industrial complex are routinely blamed for mismanagement, fraud, abuse, bribes, and waste. All of these unsavory actions, however, are typically viewed as aberrations, malfeasances to be covered-up, while retaining the basic system of state-private cooperation in the trade of military goods and services and the flow of bribes. These offenses are in reality expressions of a thoroughgoing, intrinsic rottenness in the entire setup.
We all know what happens at Olympics, an international competition of steroids, not athletes. People feel well during the games, but feel miserable after the games when they find out Olympics cost them ten times more than projected, and most of it went to kickbacks of kleptocrats! The Athens Olympics cost was projected to two billion euros, but it finally cost Greek taxpayers thirty billion euros, with all that extra money going not to the games, but to the private pockets of Graecokleptocrats.
In Greece, the most corrupt country of Fourth Reich, trains run completely empty to nowhere! Many trains bought from Germany do not fit the rails, but they were bought just to generate bribes! In 2009, investigators of the Munich Prosecution Department uncovered a corruption affair, in which MAN has given huge bribes to Greek politicians to get large orders for overpriced trolleys. A streetcar named desire! These trolleys with huge markups are named bribes! But Greek prosecutors have started investigating this scandal just in September of 2012!
Partyfare is a new political disease. Partyfare allows political parties to rob the State Treasury and banks by a simple vote in the parliament! The cost of Greek politics is the highest in Fourth Reich. Recently, a thirty-million-euro injection was granted again by the Grand Brothel of Democracy on Syntagma Square to its hookers! Political parties in Greece are the highest funded in Europe as a proportion of tax revenue, ten times more than in Germany. The Greek political parties receive fifteen euros per vote in State funding, the highest in Europe.
The Greek presidency of EU must be annulled, because the kleptocratic alliance of Pasok mafia and Nea Democratia mafia cannot be trusted. The freakish government of Greece stole my computer, my files, and my life in cold blood! Basil Venitis, venitis@gmail.com, http://themostsearched.blogspot.com, @Venitis
Graecokleptocracy and the overflowing bureaucracy in Greece makes it very easy to embezzle Fourth Reich funds. Many professors and administrators at Panteion and other colleges, well connected to piggish Graecokleptocrats, were sentenced to long prison terms for embezzlement. A Greek court found they had misused many million euros in research funds. The guilty of Panteion include a rector, a vice-rector, and an accountant who bought a red Ferrari using research money. Money was embezzled from research budgets and spent on rugs, marble bathrooms, and furnishings for holiday apartments.
Greece has received a quarter of trillion euros in Fourth Reich funds, but big parts of that went down the drain in economically useless or imaginary projects of Graecokleptocrats. You won't find a study in Greece looking at where exactly the Fourth Reich billions are flowing to. You won't get an overview of the total costs and the projects' exact status of implementation.
Olive oil cooperatives, well connected to Graecokleptocrats, report a higher production output to Brussels compared to what their actual figures are to receive more subsidies. Databases to document their demands are run by the cooperatives themselves and are easily manipulated.
Licensure is a sign of slavery. All licenses of the kangaroo justice government of Greece should be abolished, including doctors, lawyers, and marriage. The kangaroo government of Greece licensure is an immoral exercise of force, an overly burdensome restraint on trade, a violation of the right to liberty, a mill of kickbacks. Government is a guarantor of liberty and is compatible with liberty only if its range is adequately restricted to the preservation of economic freedom.
One of the many reasons why the kangaroo government licensure is incompatible with liberty, therefore, is because it is destructive to economic freedom. No other nation demands more licenses than the Cradle of Kleptocracy. Any Greek has the natural right to pursue any means of providing for his family, so long as in doing so he does not act fraudulently or otherwise violate the rights of others.
The kangaroo government mandated license turns the market of the Cradle of Kleptocracy upside down. It prohibits every Greek from producing in a given industry except for those who are granted the privilege of doing so by the kangaroo government, especially those who provide huge bribes to kleptocrats. The kangaroo government, in such a scenario, absorbs all individual rights unto itself and then divvies up some of those rights in any number of ways.
Under the licensing system of the kangaroo government, such as it exists today in the Cradle of Kleptocracy, if some Greek attempts to exercise his natural right to provide for himself without the kangaroo government's nod of approval, which usually comes with bribes, that person goes to jail. Imprisonment for supporting oneself in an honest and non-fraudulent manner which does not infringe on the rights of others just doesn't seem right.
Preemptive protection is offensive in nature, and therefore, is itself a violation of natural rights. In a free society, it is only after fraud or another violation of rights takes place that the state has the right to intervene on behalf of the consumer. By means of the licensure power, the kangaroo government can permit a Greek to eat or it can condemn him to starve, unless he bribes kleptocrats. So long as the kangaroo government has the power to issue licenses to live in the Cradle of Kleptocracy, Greeks cannot claim to be free, and living without freedom is not much of a life.
The root causes of Greece's crisis are corruption, VAT, and the enormous regulatory burden that crushes the country's economy. Foreign investors have long been put off by bribes, myriad licenses, bureaucracy, and lack of clear laws. There is a mistrust in entrepreneurship. Greek bureaucracy treats anyone trying to start a business as if he is guilty of something. Civil servants are throwing you into a labyrinth on purpose, in order to get bribes. The law gives them the latitude to delay you or punish you.
One of the main obstacles to more investment is the legal jumble that dictates how Greek businesses work. Even Graecokleptocrats admit the lack of clear laws and the endless requests for opinions, studies, and permits are there to give work to unionized specialists. There are whole businesses and technical offices employing engineers and experts specifically for the purpose of licensing.
Requests for bribes are not always explicit. Sometimes people quote you a price and sometimes they drop hints about the cost of things and how hard it is to get by. A civil servant might tell you that politicians come and go, but he'll be here waiting for you!
Avoiding the state is the best way to get ahead. To sidestep the maze of permits that torment many entrepreneurs, one should buy an existing business that has the licenses already in place. Graecokleptocrats create myriad stupid fuzzy laws that everybody ignores. Several interests prefer a fuzzy system they can manipulate, especially in building permits, which are a hub of corruption.
Investors are bewildered by the way tax rates and rules constantly change. The unstable system makes business planning difficult. The tax code requires such complicated book-keeping that most companies find it impossible to follow. It also requires constant visits by tax inspectors, which open the way to corruption.
The Greek depression might turn to a constructive destruction. One hopes that with the nightmare that Greece is going through at the moment, Graecokleptocrats might have a reality check and decide to change things. Let's hope Graecokleptocrats can do it, otherwise you are not going to see any investment in Greece.
Incompetent political mafiosi continue to govern Greece today, the same people, the same corruption story. For decades, they have created a rotten system that permeates all segments of Greek society. For example, Greece's state social security organization IKA has been used by many in Greece as their personal piggy bank. The fact that IKA coffers are empty hasn't stopped corrupt public employees from continuing to transfer money to kith and kin who are not entitled to receive any payments at all.
The Athens Polytechnic uprising in 1973 was a massive demonstration of popular rejection of the Greek military junta of 1967-1974. The uprising began on November 14, 1973, escalated to an open antijunta revolt and ended in the early morning of November 17 after a series of events starting with a tank crashing through the gates of the Polytechnic.
November 17 is currently observed as a holiday in Greece. Students and politicians lay wreaths on a monument within the Polytechnic on which the names of Polytechnic students killed during the Greek Resistance in the 1940s are inscribed. There are no names of the Polytechnic uprising in 1973, because no Polytechnic student died. However all the people pretend that the inscribed names correspond to 1973!
The November 17 Polytechnic generation has become the present-day mafia of piggish Graecokleptocrats which rules Greece. The Polytechnic generation capitalized on its experiences to gain power and wealth in a calculated manner. For them, the Polytechnic uprising was an alibi that opened the doors of Greece’s parliament and academic institutions even though they lacked the necessary qualifications. They were part of the big orgy of European subsidies, and continue to play a part in the system of corruption and dependency on state money. If anyone dares criticize their questionable ethics, they invoke their past ordeals to deflect attention from their current corruption.
THE FALL OF PASOK STARTED ON OCTOBER 18, 2010
PASOK, TELL US AGAIN HOW YOU WON THE WAR ON OCTOBER 18, 2010!
Pasok, a socialist political mafia, sowed the seeds of future problems by building a bloated public sector based on patronage and political corruption. Myriad sinecures were created in state companies and then given to Pasok members, a system that continued under Nea Democratia.
The notion of meritocracy was pushed aside as senior positions in universities and local councils became party appointees. Public construction licenses were always decided on the basis of political support, with Pasokleptocratslining their pockets through bribes and kickbacks. Political corruption blossomed. Andreas Papandreou went on trial in 1991 accused of embezzlement. He was narrowly acquitted, thanks to lawyer Venizelos, now president of Pasok. If it weren’t for Venizelos, Papandreou would have been imprisoned for life.
There can be no growth without abolishing huge regulation, huge taxation, and huge political corruption. Basil Venitis, venitis@gmail.com, http://themostsearched.blogspot.com, @Venitis
The collapse of Pasok has gone hand-in-hand with the decline of the Greece it created. And with it has fallen the once omnipotent Papandreou dynasty, as George senior, Andreas, and George junior were all premiers of Greece. Nepotism has long had a grip on Greek politics.
Pasok is now a party without a heartbeat, a real zombie, now motivated by just an instinct of self-preservation. Pasok tries to survive for just another day. Venizelos has been largely discredited over many scandals. His attempts to claw back respectability has not resonated with hoi polloi who are as mad as hell, and they cannot take it from Pasok anymore.
Pasok is going belly up, overwhelmed by debts of 200 million euros. The debts of Pasok far exceeds the state funding. Parties that receive more votes get more funding. Relying on past good results, Pasok has pledged future state funding as collateral for bank loans. But in the 2012 election, its support collapsed, leaving Pasok with big loans and facing much smaller incomes.
This is all about the exchange of favors. Pasok cannot pay the debt so it's a vicious circle in which Pasok comes to depend on the banks. It creates an interdependence of Pasokleptocrats and banks. At the 2012 election Pasok saw its share of the vote plunge from 43 percent to 12 percent. Pasok owes ATE 130 million euros. ATE had to be rescued from collapse, taken over by Piraeus Bank.
Greece provides public funding for political parties and their election campaigns. Last year the state handed out a total of 54 million euros. Each year parties receive funding equal to 0.13 percent of annual state revenue. Greece hands out more than three times the amount spent by Germany on political parties. Per valid vote cast, Athens spends an average ten euros versus Germany's three euros.
Greece has all the right conditions for corruption: plenty of bureaucracy, no functioning justice system, laws with numerous loopholes, and economic pressure. Regarding bribes and robbing the Greek Treasury, Premier Andreas Papandreou, founder of Pasok, famously advised Pasokleptocrats: We all agree, of course, that we are allowed to give ourselves a little present from time to time, but please don't make it too large!
The Papandreou dynasty created a bloated kleptocracy of cronyism that cannot change without the intervention of the Greek army. Georgios Papandreou, George Papandreou's grandfather, founded the family's political dynasty, serving as prime minister. After the 1967-1974 military dictatorship, Georgios' son Andreas Papandreou created the socialist party Pasok. In the 1980s, he gave so much to his cronies and supporters that the country's debt ballooned.
The last four decades have seen the Papadreou dynasty establish a kleptocracy. It squandered 300 billion euros the government didn't actually have and showered kith and kin with sinecures and prosperity that were all based on credit. These kleptocrats bloated Greece's government so that everyone could have a piece of corruption, and created a bureaucratic hydra, which devoured many great institutions, such as the Bank of Crete. The Papandreou brothers who were not ministers of the government were sitting in the boards of directors of the largest Greek corporations milking the country.
Papandreou dynasty's dealings were always more about favors than policies. Anyone with access to public funds used them to buy friends and voters, who were then beholden to the mafia. The result for Greece has been a feudal kleptocracy, where the generations come and go but Papandreous always remain in politics. The new Pasok cannot survive, because it chose Venizelos, the founder of kleptocratic impunity, as its leader, it continues political corruption as usual, and it shelters most freakish blogbusters.
Pasok is a socialist mafia, a den of thieves, member of the Socialist International, the Party of European Socialists, and the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats. Pasokleptocrats span the gamut of political corruption. Bribe is the gift bestowed to influence the recipient's conduct. Kickback is a payment to a person in a position of power or influence for having made an income possible. Embezzlement is outright theft of entrusted funds. Patronage is favoring supporters. Nepotism is favoring kin. Cronyism is favoring kith. Graft is an unscrupulous use of a politician's authority for personal gain.
During Andreas Papandreou's leadership, wages were substantially boosted and income was heavily taxed. At the very beginning, the members and the leadership of the mafia were very critical of NATO and the European Economic Community, but this attitude was soon abandoned when they realized they could make more kickbacks and bribes. Andreas Papandreou and Akis Tsochatzopoulos wished to create a socialistic world where kleptocrats would dominate.
Tsochatzopoulos, a distinguished leader and cofounder of Pasok, served in cabinets between 1981 and 2004. He was elected to the Greek Parliament for the first time in 1981 and remained in seat until 2007. He was the second most important person of Pasok, the crown prince of Pasok, but fate was not nice to him, ending up in prison for what all Pasokleptocrats did anyhow, political corruption beyond imagination! But while the other Pasokleptocrats knew how to cover their ass, Tsochatzopoulos lived like a king, inviting scrutiny and jealousy.
After Andreas Papandreou's death, Costas Simitis defeated Tsochatzopoulos, and he was elected President of Pasok. Simitis moved to modernize the mafia, making it purely social democratic. Tight fiscal policies, privatization of state enterprises, and a broadening of the tax base were implemented. But due to huge political corruption, Pasok was defeated at the polls in the election of 2004. The Nea Democratia policies adopted by the new government, forced Pasok to turn left under the leadership of George Papandreou. Five years later, the Party triumphed in the 2009 elections.
After the 2009 electoral sweep, there were many revelations of huge political corruption. Moreover, the deficit that had run up in the years leading to 2010 was of an enormous unmanageable scope. Greece was faced with imminent bankruptcy, and the government received emergency funds from IMF and ECB. In exchange for further loans, Fourth Reich required austerity policies.
In Greece, the most corrupt country of Fourth Reich, trains run completely empty to nowhere! Many trains bought from Germany do not fit the rails, but they were bought just to generate bribes! In 2009, investigators of the Munich Prosecution Department uncovered a corruption affair, in which MAN has given huge bribes to Greek politicians to get large orders for overpriced trolleys. A streetcar named desire! These trolleys with huge markups are named bribes! But Greek prosecutors have started investigating this scandal just in September of 2012!
Pasok’s transformation from its original socialistic principles to kleptocratic principles disenchanted many Party members. The social disruption flowing from revelations of huge political corruption sparked major demonstrations against the government. In the May 2012 elections that followed, the Party placed third. Recent polls place Pasok sixth, the last party with only 5% of popular support. It used to be the first party, with 42% of popular support. In next elections, Pasok might get less than 3%, leaving it out of the Greek parliament. For all practical purposes, Pasok is now dead. History will record it as a den of thieves.
Piggish Pasokleptocrats chose former Defense Minister Akis Tsochatzopoulos of Pasok as a scapegoat for their sins, because his living style corresponds to the Royal House of Saudi Arabia. This way, they hope Greeks could cool down and forget about the myriad briberies and scandals of Pasokleptocrats. Obviously, Pasokleptocrats undervalue the intelligence of Greeks. Greeks know very well, there is no just a single culprit, but at least four hundred culprits who stole billions of euros, safely deposited in their offshore accounts.
Scapegoating Tsochatzopoulos is a hostile social-psychological discrediting routine by which Pasokleptocrats move blame and responsibility away from themselves and towards Tsochatzopoulos. It is also a practice by which angry feelings and feelings of hostility are projected, via accusation, towards Tsochatzopoulos. Tsochatzopoulos feels singly persecuted and receives vilification, blame and criticism, even though four hundred Graecokleptocrats did similar things. Tsochatzopoulos suffers rejection from Greeks who Pasokleptocrats seek to influence.
In scapegoating Tsochatzopoulos, feelings of guilt, aggression, blame and suffering are transferred away from Pasokleptocrats so as to fulfill an unconscious drive to resolve or avoid such bad feelings. This is done by the displacement of responsibility and blame to Tsochatzopoulos who serves as a target for blame both for Pasokleptocrats and Greeks.
The Pasokleptocrats’ drive to displace and transfer responsibility away from themselves may not be experienced with full consciousness as self-deception is a feature. Tsochatzopoulos experiences exclusion, ostracism, and expulsion. Scapegoating frees Pasokleptocrats from some self-dissatisfaction and provides some narcissistic gratification to them. It enables the self-righteous discharge of aggression.
Scapegoating Tsochatzopoulos also can be seen as the Pasokleptocrats’ defense mechanism against unacceptable emotions such as hostility and guilt. Scapegoating Tsochatzopoulos is an example of projective identification, with the primitive intent of splitting, separating the good from the bad. Pasokleptocrats are also insecure people driven to raise their own status by lowering the status of Tsochatzopoulos.
The odyssey of Lagarde list proves the huge Greek political corruption continues up to this day. It primarily illustrates how Graecokleptocrats cover their ass. In the autumn of 2010, Christine Lagarde, who was the French finance minister at the time, gave her Greek counterpart George Papaconstantinou a list of 2062 bank accounts with information on Greek customers at the HSBC Bank in Switzerland. While the French state was using this list to help collect half a billion euros from its own taxdodgers, Papaconstantinou hid the list and deleted the names of his three relatives!
Adding insult to injury, Papaconstantinou hoodwinks that he does not know what happened to the original version of Lagarde list! Papaconstantinou was succeeded by Evangelos Venizelos, who is the leader of Pasok, and thus part of the governing coalition. Venizelos served as finance minister for nine months. He is infamous for introducing the impunity of Graecokleptocrats twenty years ago.
Venizelos didn't instruct the Financial Crimes Squad (SDOE) to conduct inquiries, nor did he inform anyone of the existence of this information. Everyone else in the government thought that the list had disappeared. It was only when the current Finance Minister John Stournaras heard about the Lagarde list, and wanted to ask Paris for the original pure version, that Venizelos supposedly remembered the doctored Lagarde list in his drawer!
Do not forget that HSBC is just one offshore bank out of thousand offshore banks. Greeks wonder how many billion euros in total are deposited in the offshore accounts of all kith and kin of all Graecokleptocrats, who pretend they are penniless. Could that be a trillion euros? We have now a Greek tragicomedy of penniless billionaires! Graecokleptocrats have just created a new oxymoron, their only contribution to philosophy!
OCTOBER 18, DAY OF REMEMBRANCE FOR THE VICTIMS OF KLEPTOCRATIC REGIMES
EU practices double standards in civil rights. It’s freakish for EU to interfere in the civil rights of foreigners, but condone the abuse of my civil rights, a citizen of EU! EU should get its own house in order and quit lecturing others.
It’s been now three years since the freakish Greek government stole my life, my computer, and my files. Nobody cares, nobody gives a damn! I have done absolutely nothing, and I am being persecuted by the Greek government without any reason. This is against all rules of civil society and treaties that Greece has signed.
On October 18, 2010, a gang of six brutal policemen of the violent Greek Cyber Crime Unit (CCU) broke into my home in Athens and stole my computer, software, files, documents, and personal data.
The policechimps locked me in jail for a night, they humiliated me with handcuffs, fingerprints, mug shots, and lies, leaked false information to the media parrots, and the fucking Greek government initiated sham ex-officio court proceedings for a stack of stupid fictitious freakish charges!
There was neither pillow nor toilet facility in my jail cell. I had to urinate in a bottle! I, a 68 years old with high blood pressure, was not allowed to keep my hypertension pills with me. There was neither toilet paper nor soap in the whole CCU jail.
GREECE, A FAILED STATE, THE BLACK SHEEP OF FOURTH REICH, THE PARIAH OF OCCIDENT, ENEMY OF BLOGOSPHERE
Ex-officio law suit, autepageltos αυτεπαγγελτος, the most dreadful word in justice, means the state sues somebody without involvement of the accuser. This terrible scheme has been used by the freakish Greek government to persecute me. Mariliza Xenogiannakopoulou, Alternate Minister of Foreign Affairs, sued me, and she wouldn’t show up in court, because the state took over her position!
At the ex-officio law suit, the accuser just hits and runs! This hit-and-run justice is the most disgusting kangaroo justice on Earth. In all civilized nations, the accused is in a position to face his accuser eyeball to eyeball, but not in Greece, a failed state. The fucking accuser slings false accusations against you, the freakish state takes over, the accuser disappears from the kangaroo court, and the trial is postponed infinite times! venitis@gmail.com, http://themostsearched.blogspot.com
