Tornou-se famoso e grassou pela internet um vídeo no qual Eric Cantona, a antiga estrela de futebol, apelava a uma revolução silenciosa e não violenta, a qual consistia em que as pessoas levantassem todo o seu dinheiro dos bancos, para com isso causar o colapso do sistema bancário, que é, segundo Cantona, o responsável pela crise.
As ideias de Cantona não são novidade, e cada vez mais pessoas se tornam adeptas das mesmas, à medida que se apercebem daquilo que julgam ser o funcionamento de um sistema no qual, os países e os seus povos, para terem acesso ao uso das divisas, precisam pagar o seu empréstimo, fundando assim um sistema monetário baseado na dívida perpétua.
O apelo de Eric Cantona destinava-se ao dia 7 de Dezembro de 2010, e acabou por não ter efeito, parecendo não ter tido grande adesão, a julgar pela afluência normal aos balcões dos grandes bancos.
No entanto, o apelo de Eric Cantona chegou a gerar preocupação entre dirigentes políticos e economistas.
A iniciativa foi amplamente condenada por dirigentes políticos e economistas, com o presidente do Eurogrupo e a Comissão Europeia a classificarem a atitude de “totalmente irresponsável”.
Jean-Claude Juncker considera que Cantona não devia “induzir em erro as pessoas simples”. Já o comissário europeu dos Assuntos Económicos, Olli Rehn, julga-o “melhor futebolista do que economista”, e a ministra francesa da Economia e Finanças, Christine Lagarde, recomenda-lhe “intervir naquilo para que tem competência”. Para a Sefin, Associação Portuguesa de Defesa dos Clientes Bancários, a campanha “nem defende os consumidores”.
O tão propalado vídeo foi filmado a 8 de Outubro de 2010, numa entrevista a Eric Cantona.
☮ Alerte Rouge: Le Crash.

JI just discovered that the much awaited Market Crash was programed by a fascist splinter group for the 6/7/8 January 2011. The sole goal of the “Cantona Appeal” was in fact to make journalists talk about the “soft lead” (wtch the video below) and create a butterfly and domino effect which will land in New York. Guess what? They spread the word.
“In one of the greatest investment markets in the world, namely, New York, the influence of speculation (in the above sense) is enormous. Even outside the field of finance, Americans are apt to be unduly interested in discovering what average opinion believes average opinion to be; and this national weakness finds its nemesis in the stock market.”

It is not yet too late to save ourselves from the Formidable Chaos:
☮ La Nouvelle Économie.
____________________________________________
This is what JMK had to say about these contemporary events, Cantona, and the difference between the Ideas of those who intended to use him a as a puppet and those of ☮ La Nouvelle Économie.:
At the present moment people are unusually expectant of a more fundamental diagnosis; more particularly ready to receive it; eager to try it out, if it should be even plausible. But apart from this contemporary mood, the ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else.
Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back.
I am sure that the power of vested interests is vastly exaggerated compared with the gradual encroachment of ideas. Not, indeed, immediately, but after a certain interval; for in the field of economic and political philosophy there are not many who are influenced by new theories after they are twenty-five or thirty years of age, so that the ideas which civil servants and politicians and even agitators apply to current events are not likely to be the newest.
But, soon or late, it is ideas, not vested interests,
which are dangerous for good or evil.
