Politics is manipulated by power and wealth.
Cyprus brings us closer to a question posed just four years ago;
Should our financial system be supported?

Here's a few assertions:
The World monetary system is guaranteed by the citizens.
There is no absolute value on currency derived from economic realities such as gold which must be mined and refined.

Cyprus brings us closer to the ultimate question:
At what point do we find our financial system as a detriment?
Or:
How much are we willing to spend for financial security?
Or, the ultimate question:
When do financial institutions become more expensive than they are worth??!!!!!!!!!
