Half way through reading this, and it is shocking stuff. Validates a lot of what MA has been saying about the political elite. Downright shocking if what Varoufakis says is true, and I don't have any reason to disbelieve the guy.
I'm glad that I found this thread. I'm trying to catch up now.
Anyway, I found this quote from that interview particularly interesting:
"So what we have is a non-existent group that has the greatest power to determine the lives of Europeans. Its not answerable to anyone, given it doesnt exist in law; no minutes are kept; and its confidential. So no citizen ever knows what is said within.
These are decisions of almost life and death, and no member has to answer to anybody."
