    Meanwhile, the ECB has cut rates to 0.5%, meaning they’ll be printing more money for cheaper loans to big banks so entrepreneurial serfs can get the eurozone economy going.

    Not to worry about inflation, folks. Recession has brought it down to less than 2% in the eurozone, so a little currency inflation won’t hurt except those whose savings are in euros, and we can all afford to pay higher prices during a recession.

    You see, in a Keynesian system where money is legally counterfeited by central banks economic growth is a function of new money injected into the system.

    And since new money is always new debt, the serfs are ensured to keep on servicing both public and private debt (and bank debt when required), the alternative being austerity, which leads to negative growth, joblessness and EU bailouts with the accompanying troika diktat.

    Nice Catch 22, and more so when you consider we’re having both easing and austerity at the same time.

    The best news is that the serfs think all they need to worry about are a few cocky pretenders in the local spectacle.

    They’re the violin quartet playing nursery rhymes in a dry part of the eurotanic.

        Maryanne, “free kindergarten facilities” are no good for the private sector, especially when subsidies are very low and competition is undermined. But if you believe otherwise you can play second fiddle to Lady Deaf, here, who doesn’t just think in black & white…

      And on the agricultural front we hear we’ll be having a bumper potato crop this year.

      What has this got to do with Muscat’s replacement for David Felice?

      From which rant sheet did you plagiarize this, Kevvy? Getting a bit blatant, no?

      Here comes Kev, with his usual tirade about central bankers, debt and the “Soviet EU.”

      Typical discourse of the extreme right.

      Kev, about a couple of years ago, you had predicted that within 2 years we would witness the complete melt-down of the US economy and its financial system. Has that apocalypse been postponed without you informing us?

      But don’t worry, Kev, based on the events in the UK in the last couple of days, seems that your friend Farage is well on his way with the solutions.

        Thanks, ciccio, we’re doing very well indeed.

        As for the ‘usual tirade’, I couldn’t have been simpler and more factual. It’s real economics as opposed to Keynesian economics, and it works like maths.

        As for the collapse, if you don’t see what’s happening it’s because you’re only scratching the surface. The mainstream media itself is full of articles you should read but never do.

        Five years ago I told you this crisis is not just a ‘business cycle’ but the beginning of a drawn out crisis defining the end of an era in Keynesianism (leading to Keynes II, of course).

        You laughed. And you’re still laughing now while the crash-landing goes on. There’s no better than a happy serf who thinks he’s sussed it out.

    he’s also obsessed with British royalty – when Charles wed Camilla, Jason was PBS’ ‘mistieden specjali’ and was asked to comment live on tv during the wedding broadcast.

    His specialisation turned out to be sourced from the gossip-mongering trashy magazines.

    That’s Jason’s level of culture and Joseph’s meritocracy. Perhaps Joseph will use the same yardstick to measure how Jason will have embarrassed him after the event is over?

    Nobody has as yet reminded on and all that 2018 is also election year. Can Josephmuscat.com afford a last minute embarrassment?

    Rajt bil-pacenzja kolla lil Jason jitkellem u komplejt ninduna kemm hu bniedem facciol.

    Nahseb li kellu jerga jara ftit dawn il-clips t’hawn fuq u jigi inse li dak kollu li qal kontra n-nazzjonalisti fil-gvern qed jaghmluh huma issa.

    Trid tkun bla zejt f’wiccek biex titkellem u tghid lighandu jigi kkonsultat kulhadd biex inghazel xi hadd fuq xi bord, u trid tkun b’gilda xirfa biex issemmi li l-PN taw xoghol lin-nazzjonalisti bla koflitt ta interess.

    Jaqbillu qabel ma jkompli jitkellem jghati ftit hin u jisma dak kollu li qal hu stess biex zgur ma jghidx li qed indawru l-kliem.

    Stennew ftit! L-ewwel irridu nibnu il-pedamenti b’nies kapaci u kompetenti ghax in-Nazzjonalisti ma’ kellomx struttura tajba ta’ Gvern serju.

    Mela ma’ tafux li kien hemm bzonn jizdiedu aktar nies fil-Ministeri qabel jibda jitwettaq dak kollu li gie mwieghed qabel l-elezzjoni?

    L-ewwel Joseph Muscat irid juri kif Malta issir taghna Lkoll bil-weghdi li ghamel lil ta’ madwaru, imbaghd jibdew jittwettqu l-weghedi li weighed lill-poplu.

    Mal-PL m’hemmx hbieb tal-hbieb tafux imma serjeta’, integrita’ u akkontabilita’ biss.

    Bhala Beltija jien ma ghandiex fiducja fih u ma rridux jirrapprezenta lil Belt ghall Valletta 2018.
