What Kind Of Pills Do I Have

• If anyone thinks that there is no censorship today, we explain why and has been known everything that happens in Egypt and in other Arab countries, why newspapers have not said much about what happened in Iceland: Iceland, the town has a government to resign completely, nationalized the major banks, it was decided not to pay the debt that they have created with Britain and the Netherlands because of their bad financial policy and created a popular assembly to rewrite its constitution. And all of this peacefully.


• A revolution against the power that has brought us to the current crisis. I here, why not facts have become known for two years: What would happen if the other EU citizens take example?


• This is, briefly, the history of events:


• 2008. It nationalized the country's largest bank. The currency collapses, the bag suspended its activity. The country is bankrupt.


• 2009. Citizen protests outside parliament to be convened achieve early elections and lead to the resignation of Prime Minister and members of his government as a block. Continues the bad economic situation. Under legislation proposed repayment of the debt to GB and the Netherlands by the payment of 3,500 million euros, a sum that all Icelandic families pay monthly for the next 15 years at 5.5% interest.


• 2010. People get to take to the street and asked to submit the law to referendum. In January 2010 the President refuses to ratify it and announced that there will be consultation. In the referendum held in March and NO to sweeping debt with 93% of the vote. To all this, the government has begun an investigation to resolve legal responsibilities of the crisis. Begin the arrests of several senior bankers and executives. Interpol issued an order, and all the bankers involved, leaving the country.


• In this context of crisis, we choose an assembly to draft a new constitution to incorporate the lessons learned from the crisis and to replace the current A copy of the Danish constitution. To do so, go directly to the sovereign people. 25 citizens are elected without political affiliation of the 522 who have submitted applications for which only needed to be older and have the support of 30 people. The constituent assembly began its work in February 2011 and submit a draft constitution based on the consensus recommendations in various meetings to be held across the country. Must be approved by the current Parliament and which formed after the legislative elections.


• This is the brief history of the Revolution Iceland: government resignation of the entire block, nationalization banking, referendum to let the people decide on the momentous economic decisions, imprisonment of those responsible for the crisis and rewriting of the constitution by the citizens.


• Have we mentioned this in the European media? Have you commented on the political radio talk shows? Have you seen pictures of the events on TV? Of course not. The Icelandic people have been able to give a lesson to all of Europe, to stand up to the system and giving a lesson in democracy to the world.
