Transcripts of telephone conversations from 2008 between bankers at Anglo Irish Bank have caused outrage in Ireland and beyond in recent days.
In the tapes they made light of the Irish government's decision at the height of the global financial crisis to guarantee their liabilities and talk about demanding "moolah" - slang for money - from the country's central bank.
They were also heard singing the pre-war version of the German national anthem, with the words "Deutschland ueber alles."
There is no such thing as "democracy": the "politicians" are installed by the money-power, and therefore the "politicians" represent the money-power. The corporate media make-believe that the System is legitimate.
Everything else is just window-dressing to make ordinary people think they live in a "democracy."
