MARKO GOLOB ČLAN BIVŠE UPRAVE CENTRALNOPLANSKE AUKN V DANAŠNJEM VEČERU O ODLIČNOSTI SLOVENSKIH BANK



Marko Golob član bivše uprave centralnoplanske AUKN po severnokorejskem vzoru, v današnjem Večeru (11. 4. 2013) o tem, kako slovenske banke odlično poslujejo in kako vsakoletne več stomilijonske dokapitalizacije bankam v državni lasti, ne pomenijo državne podpore bankam. 

»…je bila Slovenija ena redkih držav v Evropi, ki svojih bank v krizi ni podprla…«
 »Menda nam bodo z nakupom slovenskih firm pomagali. Ker menda naše firme niso nič vredne? Dajte no. Večina slovenskih državnih firm je odlična investicijska priložnost, vključno s slovenskimi bankami

»Malo znano je dejstvo, da so bile slovenske banke ene izmed redkih bank v srednji in vzhodni Evropi, ki so v konkurenci podružnic zahodnih bank zadržale svoje tržne deleže in jim zelo uspešno konkurirale. Njihovi problemi ležijo bistveno bolj v napakah državne makroekonomske politike in dejstvu, da je bila Slovenija ena redkih držav v Evropi, ki svojih bank v krizi ni podprla, kot pa v tem, da se Slovenci menda ne bi znali iti bančništva.«

IN MEMORIAM - MARGARET THATCHER (13. 10. 1925 – 8. 4. 2013)


The Iron Lady – pogosti lik v priljubljeni seriji v osemdesetih Spitting Images

Nekaj izjav, ki jih naše levičarsko časopisje ne prenese:
  1. »We are not asking for a penny piece of community money for Britain. What we are asking is for a very large amount of our own money back, over and above what we contribute to the community, which is covered by our receipts from the community." 1979, na srečanju European Economic Community.
  2. "There is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women and there are families.'' 1987, v intervjuju za neko revijo.
  3. "If you just set out to be liked, you would be prepared to compromise on anything at any time and you would achieve nothing."1989, komentar ob desetletnici  na položaju premierke.
  4. "Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country."
  5. "There can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty. "
  6. "To cure the British disease with socialism was like trying to cure leukaemia with leeches. "
  7. "Pennies do not come from heaven. They have to be earned here on earth. "
  8. "The battle for women's rights has been largely won.
    Maggie: "Ronnie and I got to know each other at a time when we were both in Opposition, and when a good many people intended to keep us there. They failed, and the conservative 1980s were the result. But in a certain sense, we remained an opposition, we were never the establishment. As Ron once put it: the nine most dangerous words in the English language are 'I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.' As usual, he was right."
