As the Cyprus clusterfuck gather pace (keep up to speed on it by checking out my
Loans and Finance site) it seems that in a twinkling of an eye Euro Nanny has abolished private property.
As per
Zero Hedge:
"Deposit Insurance at a bank, any bank in Europe, is now meaningless.
A bond indenture, any clause, any paragraph, any promise or assurance;
now meaningless. The notion of private property, land, cash, house; now
meaningless. The European Union will take what they want as they deem it
necessary and the IMF will follow along. The question has been asked,
during the last few days, why the bond holders of Cyprus were not tagged
along with the bank deposits. I can answer the question. Virtually all
of the Cyprus sovereign debt is governed under British law and so the EU
did not pursue this course.
I recall the movie, Casablanca,
where the Germans stood up to sing their National Anthem and the French
responded with the "Marseilles." It is too bad that the French have
forgotten how to sing this song but then, apparently, all of the nations
in the EU have forgotten how to sing their own songs.
Greece
came first. Lesson one and "shame on you." Cyprus comes second and now
"shame on me." What will come next? What will you tell your partners or
your shareholders when they say, "You should have known." You will have
no excuse! The Europeans will take what they want and when they want it
and to have money invested there now only has one excuse; masochism.
Neither you nor I have any idea of what they might do next. When a
government changes an indenture retroactively as a condition of funding
and then demands that private property be seized as a condition of
funding then this government, the European Union, will stop at nothing,
find no boundary or fence, to halt its ambitions.
When Lesson three comes, and it will, I will not be kind. I will say; "I told you so!""
