John Saxe-Fernández, The Day Thursday 10 February 2011.

L you socio-political effects of economic crisis and the Pax Americana shiver at the center and periphery of capitalism: from the cities, neighborhoods, and the large U.S. suburban areas, until Tunis, La Paz, Quito and the Freedom Square in Cairo.

The high capital lobbying for more deregulation, unemployment is enormous, and millions are being robbed by the banks: there was more releases and bankruptcies in 2010 than in 2008.
