Laugh. Cry. Repeat.

The stock market is doing poorly, in fear of Greece leaving the European Union.  Conservatives are out, in France, and Socialists are in, and likely to remain 'in'.  Greece continues to try to sort out a socialist government. In Germany, the overwhelmingly popular Angela Merkel's party of conservatives is NOT so popular - and is more vulnerable to being thrown out of power than they have been in a long time.  Long serving Angela Merkel is meeting with French President Hollande, his first foreign visit since assuming power in Berlin, in an attempt to undo some of what has been done by austerity-mad conservatives. 
Austerity is not popular; and austerity, especially conservative style, which uses it ONLY to shift burdens from the rich to the middle class and below, and to shift money from them to the rich, is failing.  It is failing because Austrian school economics is only useful in theory, not practice, while Keynesian economics has a proven successful track record, when properly implemented.
In that political context, I've been waiting to post this animation, which gets it all so very right, about the right wing.
Hooray again for Mark Fiore; he understands, as well as animates, brilliantly; applause, applause!
Conservatives could do well to learn their economic lessons from him.
