Europe debt crisis ; Eurozone meltdown ; A pile of defaults ; Debt cartoon
Tim Burton cartoon inspired. Posted on the day of the Greek elections. The candle has almost melted away, its last embers blowing the sign of the euro in smoke rings. The cobwebs in the corners of the desk represent the tangled webs of debt in the eurozone. The cyber mermaid is sitting amongst pile of default letters. The grinning cheshire cat, bloated and inflated like a floating balloon, represents fat cat executive bonus pay and also tax evasion. In the book, 'Alice in Wonderland', the cheshire cat disappears at will, which begs the question, where HAS all the money gone ?

The Cyber Mermaid as Pierrot, the sad clown...( and the fool ! )
The Cyber Mermaid is sad thinking
about all the precious and sentimental things she sold in order to pay
the interest on her bank credit cards ( before the default ). Her hair
is lank and lack lustre as she is still without running hot water ( see 'causing a stink' cartoon ).
This
cartoon also has in mind the people of Greece, many of whom have had to
sell their family gold jewellery in order to survive in a financial
crisis that is not of their doing.

Debt and Default cartoon ; Cyber News ; The Cyber Mermaid is downgraded...
The Cyber Mermaid is grinning with relief that finally the mounting interest on her bank credit cards has come to a halt due to the default. The cheshire cat is grinning insanely at the financial madness of economies being built on foundations of debt. The order of countries that are likely to default ( on the debt clock ) is conjecture.
