Ousted by Austerity: Vote on cuts sees Berlusconi exit

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

The idiot they have in now isn't much better. He's a globalist sellout to the EU which is bankrupting italy.

[Tressco]

Remember this crazy trader, saying “Goldman Sachs rules the world!”...?

Aahh, never mind...everything is okay...just following these fictitious Protocols, that work but are not real anyway, so...nothing to worry about fiction, loonies...

[Shofoxy]

You would think that after the roman empire the italians would know a thing or two about slavery, economic or otherwise. I guess they will have to learn those lessons again, only this time they are the slaves, bought and payed for.

I wonder how long it will be before you can buy your very own italian over the internet?

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 meh cba. it could also be said all goverenments are heading that way since the serious flaws in catalism have once again been revealed. but i dont belive we will ever actually go that far.

[unheardvoice11]

Ok change the pillow and think you'll get rid of headache!

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 if we were acting like the dictatorships of europes past people like farrage wouldnt be in the parliament, there would only be one political party and the papers and TV stations would be under strict govermental control. Also human rights wouldnt exsist the banks wouldnt of gotten us into this mess in the first place, because they would be under control of the state, and so on and so forth. the EU doesnt practice the key tenants of either phlisophy.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

This is the end of Sovereignty. Eras don't have a god damned thing to do with it. These banker pigs have been up to this for thousands of years- they have nearly succeeded.

[therunningmanlives]

her english "accent" is horrible

[abc987tx]

@sjoyce100

Usual BUFFON British man

[abc987tx]

Italy's debt is staggering at just over 2 trillion dollars and compared to it's nominal GDP which is 2 trillion p/a, you can see that the service to debt ratio is very high. What about the United States...anyone?? The US GDP is 13.6 trillion dollars which makes it number one in the world. What is the US debt? 15 Trillion dollars...and no one says anything about the US economy, but of course the US has the labor markets and manufacturing to service this debt, don't they? No? What a world...

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@abc987tx EXACTLY. The USA has become a fascist plutocratic oligarchical corporatocracy. We export all of he world's war. A lot like Rome did. Hmm. Seems this country behaves exactly like Rome did. I wonder why Rome collapsed?

[abc987tx]

@bamboo4tameshigiri

Are you referring to Roman Empire ?

Rome lasted 5 centuries (503 years exactly).

U.S. empire is in crisis just 60 years after the WW2.

I wonder why U.S. is not collapsed yet ?

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

@abc987tx Yes, the Roman empire. This country is making all of the same mistakes. Allowing a giant wealth gap to grow larger every day, a severely overstretched and overworked military, fascist militant police at home, untouchable politicians with golden parachutes, making more foreign enemies than friends, etc. etc. etc.

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 id appreciate it if you kept the language to a minimum. and no i havent been brainwashed. i just studied hostory and know what happens when you pull apart something like the eu. i also know that the eu is an intergral part of pretty much every european countrys economy via the free trade area and that anything that hits the european economie at this point is going to ripple through the rest of the worlds economy.

[bradq]

he will be exiled to the "island of large breasted 16 year old bi-sexual nymphomaniacs" to serve out his sentence.

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 and no doing that wont solve anything. abolishing the eu would be detremental to alot of economies probably pludging the world into an even deeper reccession on par with the great deppression.

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 no. you see the captalistic elements of the western governments removed the legislation and regulations put in place to prevent the banks from doing exactly what they did with the huge amount of debt for the reasons that such regulation and legislation were impedding prosperity and economic growth. a socalistic response to the situation would of been to slap more regulation on the banks, restrain them futher, or prehaps even nationlism them.

[CommanderMethos]

@Packerd01 The captalists are responsible for the economic crisis.

[Landazar321]

He always did more political harm with his TV-Channels anyway. So now he has more time for that. Is that good for italy?

[expat08]

It used to be, until very recently, that when a leader resigned there followed a General Election. So what changed? Why doesn't the media push this point? Why isn't there public outrage? I don't think there is clearer evidence that our leaders are chosen by "the men behind the screen!"

[CommanderMethos]

@expat08 because its a goverenment of national unity. which basically means the pm is put in place by the vast majority of mps and thus having an election would be pointless. because however you voted you would still have the same PM.

[expat08]

@CommanderMethos Ok, point taken, Italy is different. I believe the average tenure of an Italian government since WWII is 18 months, huh!

I guess I was really thinking of British politics of the past as opposed to Bliar handing over to the next idiot, and also the appointment of Van Rompuy, etc.

The trend seems to be by appointment rather than by vote.

[CommanderMethos]

@expat08 no its generally what happens in times of crisis. the goverenment suspends the opposition in an effort to ensure that the nessercary action is taken with relative speed. its happened in any number of countrys including britian.

[PassOnTheTruth]

The Italian PM was set up by the zionist! Here is a video which explains in full details how he got set up and why he got set!

@PassOnTheTruth

Indeed, Allah bless them! It's like what the honorable Ramzan said! The Islamic law is about protecting Russia 1000%!

[IsraelPimpsWest]

@PassOnTheTruth

I use to be brainwashed by the western media and think Russia, Muslims, African, Chinese were evil! however, once I grew up and started to do my research, I then realized I was brainwashed by the evil one! I hope the rest of the western world wakes up!

[geradical]

UTTER MADNESS!!!

GET THESE PSYCHOS OUT OF OFFICE IMMEDIATELY!!!!

The people have absolutely no say when it comes to choosing leaders. A Fucking EU yes-man is not the way to go.

[budapest509]

Not an other Sarah from you know where as a commentator please! I'm loosing faith in RT. Seriously!

i'm italian...i think we can't survive for a long time yet

but the nice thing is that we'll destroy a fucking Euro

Isn't he being replaced by a central banker? If so, this wont go down well.

Hey Europe, you're going to be getting a taste of what it's like to be American. Get ready work 3 jobs simultaneously while you watch your neighbors starve, just like we do.

[Quierotortilla]

Berlusconi steps down but the damage he did to Italy will not be repaired in 20 years.

[TheManSand322]

@ 2:22 Nice sign

[kokogro]

Berlusconi, blackmailed them to either approve austerity measures or he won't resign. It's the other way around RT.

Sarah, I want to see you naked, and have hot, steamy, sweaty, monkey sex with you!

[MrDANNYUNDERWOODky]

austerity, in the UK, the USA, and from what I hear, also Greece. The elites steal from the masses, and our "punishment" is austerity. Austerity isn't the answer, the end of the DEBT MONEY SYSTEM is the only answer.

[boumar19721972]

So an ECONOMIST is going to run the country now?!? They're fucked!

[nowthatsinteresting1]

@boumar19721972 Not just any economist - he's one that consults with Goldman Sachs (and coca-cola). Surely not the right person to sort out the mess that the likes of goldman created in the first place - pretty obvious, really.

[JesusNonEnviromental]

There is only one force at work in the World and that is the Will of God. There are not always solutions to every problem if God means it for Judgement. The problems that can be solved are do to Gods mercy and not mans wisdom. Looking at the situations the world is facing today its obviously Judgement unless men repent and whats the odds on that one?

[000deadcalm000]

@JesusNonEnviromental Yeah...let's just pin our hopes on some mythical man in the sky and pray everything get's better...that way we can absolve ourselves of our common sense and reason and look to the divine for deliverance. What I can't understand is why you people continue to cling to a 2000 year old myth...

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@000deadcalm000 Ok, I'll cling to the Omnipotent and Omniscient God who created this World and you can cling to your University professor or the next Democrat Socialist Marxist Progressive that gets in the White House

[000deadcalm000]

@JesusNonEnviromental I believe only that which is the truth....faith is not the truth, nor the path to discovering it. There is an old saying that "faith is blind"...and so it is. Faith can justify any atrocity...while measured reason can offer the tools to remove the blindfold and see things as they are...not as we believe them to be. Religion sees man as a flawed, twisted creature that needs "salvation"...to be saved from his sinful nature. I do not. Nor can I agree with the very premise.

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@000deadcalm000 At least you have taken to the time to search your mind and heart and can formulate what you believe and don't. Every mans heart is different but not every mans heart is true unless God has changed that heart and revealed himself to your mind. I have met Jesus Christ and I didn't shake His hand or hear him speak audibly to me, but I did hear the Christian Gospel and my heart and mind were changed by God with force and unexpectedly because I was not searching when I believed

[rh1507]

I wonder how someone could be in for 17 years? Well I see my own nation being ran by the few who like to hide it all so anything is possible.

[000deadcalm000]

First Greece and now Italy...seems that bankers and economists are just outright taking over governments with NO DEMOCRATIC process at all...Welcome to the New World Order. They are using this manufactured debt crisis to put the finishing touches on their fascist wet dream for Europe.....and soon the rest of the world will follow....never let a good crisis go to waste.

[Mrbullydog66]

Sorry did you say charismatic and berlusconi in the same sentence? That's like saying appetising and wet fart in the same sentence.

[rezakhalilzada]

I actually prefer Russiatoday to other mainstream media IF i had to choose, because at least they're not completely lying or not telling all of it.

[sattanhellsing]

I will tell you exactly "WHY" he resigned . He know ( like all of us ) that every thing is going down and that he did lots of shit all those years ..... so before finishing like Sadam hussen , Gadafi or Osama ben laden ... he prefer to resign and get forgotten before he got he's head on a spike !!

You may ask , " Why to compare him with dictators ? " Simple , he is a dictator like Obama , Sarkozy and all the other so call "President".

So yea ! We should reopen the coliseum and put them in it.

[simon199418]

finally the guy is able to bang any chick he wants without the media making a fuzz about it, go silvio:P

[dijournoman]

The pure evil of these elite wanting to suck out every last bit of wealth from the people..the pure arrogance of them thinking that they control everything on earth...the pure materialism that these elite show by acquiring more and more when they have already have so much...these elite may work together but their hearts are divided!

[mlmr11]

@dijournoman It's theater. He was the whipping post. There will be no change. Just another thug

[dijournoman]

@mlmr11 yupp, similar to the U.S debt ceiling scenario

[mlmr11]

@dijournoman We are truly headed for the dark ages. What these people have in store for the population of the world is not going to take hold because it goes against the laws of nature. They will fail and we'll be left without order for quite a while

[safeinsuburbia]

Down with the thug !

Long live the new thug !

[gladifly]

is there any genuine people commenting here most of the people who comment on here are sad low lifes who sit on the internet 24/7

[PleaseStayTuned]

Ahh the austerity package. That's where the banks steal all the money with the gov's help then the gov rapes the public to pay it back.

I wonder what the judge would say if I robbed a bank then told the judge "We must look to the future not the past" as my defense.

[DoYouThinkForUrselF]

to many of the mass's are brainwashed, chains of bondage tightening

[shilltheshillXXX]

So Italy will have an EU Gauleiter like in Greece?

You can Wiki Gauleiter that word, if your WWII history is a bit rusty in that area. ;)

[helmethead72]

@shilltheshillXXX Mine isn't.you are correct in your choice of word.Democracy is doomed and meaningless in the EU.

[ShikamaruTKD]

this is PROOF that people are dumb sheep. exacltly why this world is gonna destroy it self

[nightkraawler]

so they finally castrated that walking penis, with a walking vagina that understands his place at the leg of the berg table, so when is the execution?

[jigilowman]

another puppet wow

[narezul]

meet the new boss hes just like the old boss, why are these idiots celebrating ? ya know if people are so stupid it takes this long to catch on dare i say they deserve it

[tbohman1331]

This was all planned at the G20, who's next?

[TheCristo68]

they will be sucked in that death spiral anyways .what was fix in greece so far ?

nothing they just stoped talking about it and moved on to itali .what will be fixed in itali ? nothing .Both of these country's have aquired debts that are no unsustainable and unpayable .all these country's are bankrupt .The euro is dead .all these p.i.g.s. country's will have to leave the union at some point .

[bbhaver]

LOL an unelected goverment taking place? That already happened in Hungary in 2009. These fuckers don't even care if they get elected or not. Look at Greece, it's the same.

[JesusNonEnviromental]

Fiat currency is based on Military might and thats what creates the Superstition that paper is worth something. The decline of American military supremacy is a direct attack on the US currency. Would you hold a paper currency that was backed by a country that didn't have the means to protect and secure your investment. Terrorism has been used to attack the idea that your investment is secure which again strangles future investment to create jobs because everyone is afraid of the boogie man

[JesusNonEnviromental]

Social Democracy is Communism and this is the way of America and Europe. War on Terrorism is a war against Captialism and Freedom. Its design is to regulate and control the free flow and expansion of trade and commerce at the pretense of Safety and Humanitarian concerns. Capitalism needs Peace and Freedom to flourish and both have been hijacked by Socialists like the EU and the American govt who created "Terrorism" with the media and created the Housing bubble to collapse the fiat currency

[sharpcin]

I find those Italians who are celebrating Burlosconi's departure rather ignorant, because I don't think they realize they've just jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire. The guy who is primarily responsible for the levels of debt in Italy and the fiscal policies they pursued.... they just put that guy in charge of everything!! Not to mention that nobody's elected this guy, he's been "placed" into power... oh and it's just "transitional" because you know they don't have time for democracy

[ibislee]

It can't be a coincidence that every major nation is debt laden up to their eyeballs. It's all planned. The globalist sold trillions in toxic derivatives all over the world and are asking the people to pay for these bets!

[ibislee]

Burlesconi wanted to exit the Euro and the globalist didn't like that so they booted him out and put their own BANKSTER puppet in office, a Goldman Sachs IMF executive!?!?! Same goes for Popendreous.

[jb0433628]

These bunch of drunkard in the streets are celebrating the end of their freedom.

fuck 'BUNGA-BUNGA' Berlusconi..bring back the Roman Empire and Julius Caesar..those guys had balls!

Is there REALLY a "crisis" or is this deliberate? This "crisis" came out of nowhere and now all of us are supposed to feel guilty.

[WellIAMScottish]

LOL you're kind RT.

I would have gone with totally corrupt pedophile who doesn't give a fuck-all about anything but himself.

[johnnywhack]

Yet another unelected head of state in Europe. Greece and Italy now run by the big banks. Spain may be next. I wonder how receptive the people of the US will be to an unelected president. I guess we'll find out...

[Waterfall714]

Berlusconi was terrible mafia but the alternative is...EU bureaucrat?! are Italian people really happy now?

[drrx8]

Big deal! He controls all of the media in that country and can spin anything his way!

[micr0pus]

They should reopen the Roman coliseum and make the politicians and bankers fight it out in there. At least the people can be distracted with some nice entertainment.

[crubeo]

@micr0pus Don't forget the lions...

[PatriotGoUSA]

In the same week, Greece's prime minister is replaced by a bankster and Italy's is replaced by another globalist. Europe is heading downhill faster than the US!

[michaelwuzthere]

jews control everything, illuminati controls jews, i control illuminati, blah blah blah...

[dragonplumnuts]

RT got the definition exactly right "caretaker government" you will see more care for the banks and bureaucrats and more of the care(less) attitude towards the people, which we have already seen plenty of in Greece.

I wonder when we will all be told to "eat cake"

People cheering the ousting of Berlusconi need to realize this doesn't make it better for them, he is just the puppet, same policies being rammed through against the wishes of the masses

[2012GreenGhost420]

It's great to live in a world where humans care more about the well being of money over the well being of human life...

ARE WE FUCKING STUPID?!



[Mr79sav]

How about calling an election???

So Much For Democratic Bullshit.

[2010butchd]

@Mr79sav its the eu they dont want anyone to have elections or votes on anything

[Mr79sav]

@2010butchd Yea you are correct, it's like this because there is only a minority of people willing to acknowledge the corruption. I don't think a majority of people care at all.

[mispistoleros]

like tiberius, the burlesque con can retire to capri and cavort with nymphs in the grottoes...

[JesusNonEnviromental]

The masses in Europe have been coddled for years with Socialism which produces a population of adult children that depend on Mother state to feed and protect her from industrialization and capitalism. They will follow their Mother state off the cliff now because they don't have the will nor the backbone to eek out a living for themselves or face the toils that a free society must endure to maintain its freedom. They would rather have poverty than embrace a work ethic to start over

[sheepOG]

@JesusNonEnviromental There are many things that can be cut before taking away the benefits that these adult children rely on. Perhaps a good place to start is stopping the bailouts and subsidies that are reserved for big business "children", which would otherwise go bankrupt. Leaving the EU/Eurozone would also greatly improve their condition, ending the inflation tax imposed by the ECB's continuous printing of money, and ending the deficit spending that the Eurozone encourages.

[michaelwuzthere]

@JesusNonEnviromental Europe has not had socialism in 20 years. I don't think you have any idea what 'socialism' is, i think you're just an idiot.

[gladifly]

@michaelwuzthere EU is full of socialists

[michaelwuzthere]

@gladifly That doesn't mean the EU is socialist. If anything, it's a fascist organisation, being that it depends on corporate power, whereas socialism is based on organised labour power and democratic decision making.

[gladifly]

@michaelwuzthere if anything the EU is communist infact the EU is forming just like the USSR did only the EU is slowly becoming a communist state

[michaelwuzthere]

@gladifly I don't think you have any idea what 'communism' is, being that in the real definition of the term, 'communist state' is an oxymoron. In order for there to be socialism (or anywhere NEAR communism, which is a very unrealistic stretch), private banks would have to be abolished along with corporations. Don't get delusional...

[gladifly]

@michaelwuzthere i don't think you have an understanding what the EU is and how it works (maybes that because you not european) but in case you didn't know the EU commission is led by a communist and in case you can't see the EU is slowly becoming a communist state only the week minded cannot see this but me personally i don't have a problem with communist or communism because communism is a very good thing when it works and i think it has potential......

[MrHr1207]

@gladifly yes communism always works you fucking idiot! Show me ONE example wher it has worked you useless slave!

[gladifly]

@MrHr1207 read my comment i said communism is a very good thing when it works. i never said it didn't work but the problem is, is not communism its the people. communism will never work in a western country because there is so much greed and the people are not willing to support one another. which is exactly what communism is about.

[gladifly]

@MrHr1207 communism works always works?? what are you 12 or something... ok then so why hasn't it worked in the US, why isn't the communist party USA in office tell me that. cause i know exactly why it hasn't worked.

[MrHr1207]

@gladifly First off, people will not work as hard if there is no gain second , the people who end up in power are the scum of the earth!

[gladifly]

@MrHr1207 good, so now you have reframed from saying that communism always works.

[sheepOG]

@michaelwuzthere There is definitely a lot of socialism in the EU, but the fascists are now taking the upper hand. Socialist bureaucrats always make deals with fascist counterparts to remain in power, but now they're being pushed aside like the useful idiots that they are. The cuts are mostly aimed at benefits for "the people" (socialism), not at benefits for big business (fascism), which remain.

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@michaelwuzthere Europe's Capitalist society didnt stand a chance having to work along side the Social Democrats who are nothing more than communists who seek to nationalize all industry and grow government to systematically squeeze out capitalism or atleast make it impossible to flourish. It was socialism that caused the Housing bubble in america that was orchestrated by socialist ideas that A new house was the right of ALL and not something that had to be earned. You're a socialist

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@michaelwuzthere Communism has as many names as the "Mary' in the catholic church. Socialism is Communism or the big step towards it to slowly bring about a Class system that is far more totalitarian and oppressive than anything you'll see in a Free and Capitalist economy. Communism is put forth as a philosophy by only the most simplistic minds that think a Civilization can be run like a bee hive. You have your drones and your guards and your Mother and this is Communism.

[michaelwuzthere]

@JesusNonEnviromental Good job proving you're stupid...

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@michaelwuzthere Yes, thats how to win an argument, just call the other guy stupid lol You're obviously one of the best and brightest of the OWS

[michaelwuzthere]

@JesusNonEnviromental The thing is, you're just so fundamentally wrong in your entire perception, I'm not even going to begin to try to make comments about it. Frankly you're not worth my time, and from what I've seen I'd probably just be talking to a brick wall.

Have a nice day.

[JesusNonEnviromental]

@michaelwuzthere In other words, Im rock and you're paper, I win : )  Im assuming you've done a lot of reading on the matter and you did spend $80,000 to get that education of yours and all it did was indoctrinate as a Marxist Im sorry, I mean a progressive

[michaelwuzthere]

@JesusNonEnviromental pfft, lol, okay, if you consider being incredibly ignorant as being 'rock vs paper', then have fun.

[sheepOG]

The EU is showing its true face. In the past, referendums were ignored when they were held, same with political unwillingness by sovereign nations to do the EU's bidding. Now the fascist bureaucrats in Brussels remove the people in power in countries that stray from the EU agenda, and replace them with better puppets. Papandreou and Berlusconi, the people of Greece and Italy: you're the first victims of the openly fascist EU dictatorship.

[TheReapersSon]

Yeah, putting an ex-banker as the Prime Minister of your country is a great idea. Just look at the last few US Presidents. They've all been close with the banking system and look where it's gotten us.
