<B>Hard</b> Core Europe: A fact-based Reality-check of the Banana RepEUblic

Ralph T. Niemeyer explains how our political theatre in reality functions. "Only by a media controlled by industries employing Lobbyists rather than Journalists is it possible to create a hype that may let a system that is that clearly governing directly against the interests of the people appear as being without an alternative" the Author says and continues: "Berthold Brecht used to say on occasion of the tank encountered uprising of workers in Eastern Germany in 1957 that if the government was not pleased with it's people it did better to choose 'another people'. Given the fact that the majority of Europeans are potentially disenfranchised with the EU's economic course and way of executing social control by a harsh regime axing civil liberties Europeans once had been proud of one after the other, Berthold Brecht's phrase could be filled with life rather soon."
