It is a slow day in a little Greek village. The streets are deserted. Times are tough. Everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit. A rich German tourist drives into the village and stops at the local hotel. He puts a â�ì100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night. The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the â�ì100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the â�ì100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the â�ì100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel. The guy at the Farmers' Co-op takes the â�ì100 note and runs to pay his drinks bill at the taverna. The publican slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him "services" on credit. The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the â�ì100 note. The hotel proprietor then places the â�ì100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything. The traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the â�ì100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town. No one produced anything. No one earned anything. However, the whole village is now out of debt and looking to the future with a lot more optimism. And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how the bailout package works!!
I can do a religion thread if you want? I found it interesting so posted it You dont like it **** off. simples
is if falkirk council is involved its probably corruption/incompetence related. either that or you are the new terror advisor.
I worked in public sector for most of my adult life, at senior levels. If i told you some of the **** that went on you would think it was a conspiracy theory What gets me is the criticism we give to some third world countries for being corrupt no one IMO is as corrupt as us lot in Britain. Just better at hiding it
falkirk council is as corrupt as you can get, theres a lot of cash stuffed envelopes getting passed about the planning office allegedly
Its the same everywhere tbh The amount of wining and dining that goes on in secret is astonishing. Believe it or not its like the perception of masonary I was actually invited to a 'meeting'. Turned up and there were some odd 'friends' there Basically It was a suprising as walking into a room and seeing Hitler sitting with a rabbi having a drink and a laugh
