PASOK On The Verge Of Bankruptcy, Starts Fundraiser By Issuing Coupons - Xeftila!

The PASOK party, which we all know destroyed this country economically, socially and politically is indeed collapsing in the polls but also financially. Many people should ask themselves how can this be, since it received millions of Euros in state funds, bank loans, and its leaders are some of the richest politicians in Greece. Nonetheless, it is on the verge of complete bankruptcy and as such -hold on to your seats- its planning to hold a fundraising campaign so that it can pay its workers their Christmas bonuses! According to Mikropolitikos (a column in the Ta Nea newspaper) Harilaou Trikoypi (PASOK headquarters), has extended an invitation to all of its MPs, executives, members and friends to make a contribution to the party for the holiday season. That is why they are offering coupons of 20, 50 and 100 Euros.

The article also says that a more formal fund raising event is scheduled to take place during the meeting of the Central Committee next Saturday. In other words, they will force all those attending to purchase some coupons as well!

(By the way... what the hell do these coupons offer? A carton of milk? Tissue paper? Is there a raffle? The answer is: NADA... They are basically an offering to the party that is pre-determined. Meaning that a 20 Euro coupon equals what it says... 20 Euros!)

They held a similar fund raising event in 2012 and some PASOK members had caught Finance Minister Yiannis Stournaras at an ATM Machine while he was withdrawing some pocket change and they successfully managed to get 200 Euros from him for the party!

Of course our green socialist friends forget that both Evangelos (The Large) Venizelos and George (The Great Thinker) Papandreou are two of the richest men in Greece. Let us not forget how rich some of their better known MPs are as well (example: Akis Tsochatzopoulos, Theodore Pangalos, Vasso Papandreou, Costas Laliotis, Costa Simitis, and the list goes on... and on... and on...) Those organizing this fund raising event, should simply knock on their doors and demand a few hundred thousand, and forget about forcing simple everyday citizens to once again bail them out! (Xeftilismenoi!)

(Hey... Maybe HellasFrappe should follow the same recipe, we held a fundraiser for two months and were only able to raise 600 Euros with thousands of followers. Heck we probably have more followers than SYRIZA, or even the New Democracy party and let us not even compare ourselves with PASOK. Trouble is... We don't perform political favors and/or offer state projects to those who donate large sums. On the other, PASOK has mastered this craft.)
