JEFFERSON COUNTY BANKRUPTCY

JEFFERSON COUNTY BANKRUPTCY (JEFFERSON COUNTY, ALABAMA) IS BIGGEST MUNICIPAL BANKRUPTCY IN HISTORY. THIS IS NOT SURPRISING GIVEN THE BIZARRE LEADERSHIP OF THE COUNTY AND ITS PRINCIPAL CITY IN RECENT YEARS. A FEW YEARS AGO THE MAYOR SPENT TAX MONEY ORDERING BURLAP BAGS SO EVERYONE COULD "WEAR SACK CLOTH AND ASHES," WHICH WAS HIS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE SOLUTION TO THE CITY'S PROBLEMS. THE SAME MAYOR JOKED ABOUT CITY WORKERS DESTROYING ONE OF THE LAST REMAINING HABITATS OF THE EXTREMELY ENDANGERED RAINBOW DARTER FISH. THE TRUTH IS, IF IT WEREN'T FOR HOSPITALS LIKE UAB BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA WOULD HAVE COLLAPSED LONG AGO. ****************THE PATTTERN HERE IS PROPHETIC*************** WITH LITTLE OR NO PRESS COVERAGE OUTSIDE OF ALABAMA, BIRMINGHAM RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN DEMANDING BANKRUPTCY, AND THEY GOT IT! THE SAME THING WILL BEGIN HAPPENING IN EUROPE ONCE THE REALITY OF TRUE AUSTERITY SINKS IN. CHOICES WILL BE MADE BY THE PEOPLE, AND THE PEOPLE WILL DEMAND BANKRUPTCY. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST. THE PEOPLE OF GREECE, ITALY AND MOST OF THE OTHER PIIGS WILL DEMAND BANKRUPTCY --LOOK FOR THIS ALL OVER SOUTHERN EUROPE SOON, AND PREPARE FOR A NEW HANSEATIC LEAGUE COMPRISED OF MIDDLE AND NORTH EUROPEAN STATES.
