Greece to tax tips for waiters and delivery men !

https://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2024/10/04/greece-to-tax-tips-for-waiters-and-delivery-workers-poll/#:~:text=Greece's Supreme Court has ruled,targeted by the tax authorities.

Greece is ruled by the conservative party of New Democracy:
Below is a scene from a comedy film of the eighties.
 

It's "the iron maiden" starring Rena Vlachopoulos. Legendary Rena Vlachopoulos was a life long supporter of New Democracy.
The film is a sending up of the governing PASOK socialist party, Rena plays the role of a journalist who is a keen admirer of Margaret Thatcher.

Today what was the left's counter response ?
The left's counter response was that up to the summer-autumn of 2016 they were leading the polls.
They were in government so they announced this:

"soon special squads of inspectors will be roaming the streets - their purpose will be to check peoples pockets for undeclared coins"

This and others similar were forgotten when the first autumn polls showed New Democracy ahead.


The real iron maiden
 

Things do change.

Thank god shes gone. The worst right wingers are working class, useful idiots of the rich

Former CIA Director Leon Panetta says Vladimir Putin is using Donald Trump to his advantage.

The peroxide coiffured billionaire and the Russian head of state have spoken on the phone at least seven times since Donald Trump left the White House

Leon Panetta said it is "very unusual" for the Russian president to maintain any form of communication with a former American leader. He said that Vladimir Putin "knows how to work a source, and he's got a source that is very near the top in this country, he, himself is going to engage that source. "

"That really is what the bottom line is —"The mere fact that a former president of the United States is having regular conversation with our primary adversary raises real questions about where is his basic loyalty. Is it really to the United States of America? Or is it to Donald Trump?"

Trump seems to have grabbed Pennsylvania and is on his way home.
In Nevada he is six points ahead. I don't remember if Nevada was contested.

Example:

Hundreds of millions (maybe even a billion or more in toto) of people on the planet think I (and all others within the LGBTQ community) should not exist and deserve to die simply because I (and the others) are queer/gay/etc. Much of those muderous inclinations come from their interpretation of certain religious beliefs.

They will never change there minds, the divide is not overall able to be bridged at the present time (if ever).

BUT, that does not mean it is ok in anyway to capititulate to their wishs, desires, wants, demands, etc.

Simply because there is a divide does not change the rightness (the fact that us queer folk should NOT be exterminated) or wrongness (their belief that we should not exist and/or be killed) of the situation, nor does it change the only universally just outcome (ie we should not be killed, etc).

The unjust, anti-human, murderous stance MUST be resisted and fought back against as much as is possible.

I see abortion, up to the point of viabailty and/or sentientness (ie when alpha/beta brainwaves start, which are what produces sentientness and thus human life) in the same manner.

The argument that all abortions, (or even contreception/birth control) is MURDER is incorrect, it is not logical, as 'murder' means the deliberate taking of a human life, and until all necessary aspects of being human are present (especially what sets us apart from other animals, ie sentientness) then it is not murder by the very definition of murder.

Some will argue that once conception occurs, then the mere potential that a fully human being will be the outcome of the preganacy (barring miscarriage, etc) means that murder does apply.

BUT, potentiality never equals full reality. All of us are potentially billionaires or high-powered poltical leaders, etc etc, but until we actually achieve those things, we will never be granted the rights and powers that those things come with once they are acually achieved.

Ergo, their potentiality argument fails on a prima facie basis.

But I want to ask a question. Okay your against the rw policy, but how can the group that you identity with support Hamas? 

I see them marching in the parade with Hamas stuff when they are the one that kill gays. 

Can people from the LGBT community live freely in Gaza (well not right now because of the war) or Saudia Arabia ? Iran? And other Muslim countries? As opposed to telaviv in Israel? USA in general? 

Like if for equality I think we should see more fight for other countries that have less freedom then Israel and USA.

Re Abortion; Men should allow women to do what they want with their bodies and butt the fuck out

It's not their bodies.
Anyway all the pharmacies sell pills.
If it's after hours we google the all night pharmacies - takes ten seconds.
We are talking about junkie quicky fanciers.

I worked with one such doctor for a time.
I even wrote the managemet software for his clinic.
But it was the dying days of the MS DOS system so the programs had no lasting value.
So he says to me "good job - thank you - but I will do the conversion to windows myself - bye".
Many of his customers were Russian ballet dancers.

Putin and Iran getting on well - Russia just supplied missiles.

They will continue when it kicks off between Iran and Israel- their raison d;etre being US supplies Ukraine

When you carry a pregnancy for 9 months maybe then you could have a say in it. Until then men should STFU

Why so ?
If a drug is found so men can become pregnant won't it be the same thing ?

I love Barack but hate the condescension he always pulls on black men. He did the same thing when he spoke at the alma mater of Dr King in Atlanta, and is pretty much a one note Bill Cosby when speaking to men who saw themselves in him(despite the fact he wasnt like that group at all). The sexism insinuation is even worse. The same black men who give overwhelming power to women in relationships and voted overwhelmingly for Hillary not even 10 years ago are now sexist for not being as excited for Kamala as they were for you? He'd never treat any other group like this.

It's junkies.
Probably also women who changed their mind or were not happy with the sex of the foetus.

So if you, for the sake of argument, Cosmic were pregnant with Cosmic Junior, and that had happened because getting your fix of smack you'd been turning tricks, can you get an abortion ?

CosmiC Junior will go to Sandhurst god willing and will become a brigadier general.
But abortion is a crime.
Should be allowed on medical grounds by hospital committees.

Yes, but CosmicC Junior is a girl, and she is severely disabled with mental issues...she should surely not be aborted ?

Mongolism is detected by the hypersonic test and it is considered as justifiable grounds for abortion.
But free abortion without justification is anti-christian, anti-islam, anti-jewdaism, anti-hinduist, anti-buddhist, anti-Japanese emperor, the works. It's a crime.
