As the central bankers and political leaders of the
‘supposedly-developed’ world sit back in their chaise-longues sipping
mojitos at a job-well-done for today’s mindless rally on the back of a
slightly lower cost of funds in a facility that already existed but was
hardly utilized, perhaps they will cough a little at
Nigel Farage‘s (the cantankerously correct MEP from The UK) comments today. Describing
the process of ‘bribing’ Croatia to join the EU as a ‘bent, corrupt, and distorted’ effort,
he remarks that he has never seen this kind of pressure. It is
remarkable, he notes in an undeniably intelligent-sounding English
accent, that
after only 20 years out of the former Yugoslavia, after such a long period of seeking independence,
they are now voting to rejoin a ‘new Yugoslavia’ – a failing political experiment. Perhaps, Van Rompuy and friends would be better spending the money on more mojitos for their friends at the Fed and PBOC?
