Re: BBC TV:- Coming here soon
I had the opposite reaction. I thought the young woman did a good job of pointing the devastating consequences for average citizens of a country where the first priority is always bailing out the banks and creditors.
Citizens and taxpayers have been demoted to "third class" on their local Titanic. Remember, on the original Titanic in 1912, it was mostly first and second class passengers who survivied. Many of the rest were locked into quarters until near the end, after first and second class had been taken care of.
As EJ points out, our turn is coming in the U.S. Creditors and their political lackeys still hold most of the power...
The first class passengers on the ship U.S.A. (a.k.a the 1%) will fare best and the rest will be left to fend for themselves.

In second class, 120 people were saved which amounts to 42% of all second class passengers. In steerage (third class) there were 174 survivors which is equivalent to a quarter (25%) ..."
