In a normal world, "austerity" would be the proper
answer to the ills of an overspending government.
We do not live in a normal world. Austerity today means "do whatever you
can in cutting benefits to the lower class so that banks can continue to reap
the subsidies."
It is quite true that too many people live on too much
support from government. But the biggest
subsidies are to the banks and the various industries that partner with the
state (military contractors, pharma / drug companies, etc.)
"Austerity" is targeting the welfare kings and
queens, and others who live on the lower end of the economic scale. These groups are costing pennies, while the
banks and others in partnership cost trillions.
The people in this case are right to fight against the form
of the austerity being imposed.
