@pjacobelli I'm just saying that having a PhD does not make you into a good human being but it is what you do with your PhD. I'm not saying she's completely full of shit, this Ella Kokotsis, I'm just saying that she works with a conflict of interest. So becareful about trusting her, I sure don't. Sorry about calling you a slave, perhaps there is still some hope left for mankind after all. And yes, I believe the majority of politicians are puppets serving global elitists and bankers. It's SICK!

@drewstarr71 - Lying for 15 years? That's harsh. Does what she's told? That sounds like a sexist put-down. Have you any evidence to prove what you are saying. My own interest in the subject stems from my wanting to understand how countries have interacted over the last few hundred years. And, nothing against beer drinkers but I never did get into the whole beer and hockey thing. I guess I never did fit the Canadian stereotype. I am a very casual sports fan at best.

@AGuyWhoPunkUMama - I give those with a PhD some leeway since they at least thought education was a good thing. Naturally, anyone can go downhill after that. Not sure what you mean by "true slave". Don't watch much TV. The odd movie now and then. I like to read, listen to music and relax in my garden. Not a shopper either except for the St. Lawrence Market (food). Don't have any children. I guess you got me wrong on just about all counts - though I might agree on the puppets robbing me blind.

@pjacobelli I already know what she is and what she has done for the last 15 years and its all the same every year....lie, lie, lie, lies to us all, she does what she is told... a shill. How about you drink another six pack and watch another game of hockey.

[AGuyWhoPunkUMama]

@pjacobelli spoken like a true slave. and just so u know, just cuz someone is a phd, doens't mean they serve our best interest in mind. Go back to your couch and watch some tv. When your done, go and shop at your local mall for the latest craze you brainwashed zombie. Make sure pass the knowledge of how to be a good slave for the elitist to your children and grandchildren. And let these puppet politicians and banksters keep robbing you blind!

@drewstarr71

Actually, a quick Google search shows that she is a PhD who has researched the G7/8/20 for the last 15 years. Perhaps she has a perspective that might be useful to people who want to know whether these meetings amount to anything. Why don't you contact her and ask her?

@AGuyWhoPunkUMama

Hey, that is a totally uncalled for language. Bet you wouldn't be so rude if you had to identify yourself so the world would know who you are. If you actually listened to the piece or even did a Google search you would see that Ms Kokotsis is a PhD who has researched the meetings for the last 15 years. Also, you can't work for the G-8 or G-20. It's not a company or a government ministry. It's a meeting. People attend every year and then go home to their real lives.

@Whitehorze The problem is that for way too long Americans have bought into the two party system and that system is as fake as pro wrestling. We need to vote for real leaders, not pawns of the Illuminati.

[AGuyWhoPunkUMama]

oh stfu Ella Kokotsis. Of course you're advocating the G20, you work for them! the population knows what the G8/G20 is all about. It's not about global warming bull shit, it not about child health and it's not about the best interest of the ppl! it's about global governance and depopulation! Fucking ppl.

so they are gonna give more AIDS to Africans, and they are going to focus more on developing political protection.
