This   orchestr ated economic disaster  reminds  me of the movie Catch 22.
   The GIs make a deal with the Germans to take a commercial loss  off their hands  ; They coordinate a bombing mission with  the German air force to bomb their US base and the Germans would  buy the GI's worthless commodities and save the GIs from losing their  money in a bad underhanded deal that they the GIs had  fell for.  
 Life imitating the Movies now,  how smart can Man get?

this is one of the most condescending, ill-written, manipulative, and ignorant piece of yellow journalism I've seen in years.
Filming Romanian beggers in the streets of Lisbon? What a joke
Worry about Russia and its problems, Portugal will be fine. Portugal is one of the countries which defaulted less in its history. Certainly a feat Russia cannot reproduce.    Greece   going to be a cooked goose soon. than all of Europe and that includes Portugal; the 99% is not fantasizing on Rumanian beggars but them selfs becoming one do to corporate capitalist greed. 

CORRECTION NOTE TO THE REPORTERS OF THIS PIECE: 15 of October-Global Demonstration was called by the spanish Indignados/15M somewhere in june/july and not by Occupy Wallstreet... Please, get you shit together!!!

  Strange that the world economic failure started after the Russian Georgia   conflict and growing with the financial meltdown with the missal defense issue; are they connected. Is money being moved for political military reasons more than being criminal and or greed . The Banks are but a cover for this  massive wealth movement ?   

The wealthy business community of the former Portuguese Colony Macau may be consider to bailout Portugal's bankrupcy.
