The luxury escorts of Madrid, Spain have had enough. In a country where prostitution exists in a gray area between not being legal and not being illegal, the most expensive women have
told their banker clients to get human. (Machine translation. Live with it. I don't speak Spanish)
The
largest trade association of luxury escorts in Madrid announced yesterday
the beginning of a total strike and indefinite suspension of sexual services to
employees of banks until they return to providing credit to households,
SMEs and Spanish companies.
They've cut off the Spanish 1 percenters.
The
idea of this strike arose from the experience of CP Lucia one of the
association's members, who during the press conference told how
one of her regular customers told him that, for many months, his only
activity was to borrow hundreds of millions of euros of liquidity window at 1% from the ECB, and immediately spend the money on European
government debt and highly specialized products such as CDS (credit default swaps) and
commodity hedge funds, with returns of between 3 and 7% , pocketing the
difference. "One day I got fed up and said: Enough is enough no? Forget my pussy until you fulfill your responsibility to society. My client at first grumbled and threatened
to cut off the maintenance fees and transfers, but eventually backed off
and three days later returned with a notarized certificate of having
granted a line of credit to SMEs and a loan to buy a Citroen van a
self-contained. This is how I realized that we could help the credit flowing again "
It gets better. How? The bankers want someone to legislate an end to the strike.
The
Confederation of Banking has formally requested the establishment of
minimum services and government mediation to unlock the conflict as soon
as possible. But from the
Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness headed by Luis de Guindos,
recognize that the lack of legislation around the area makes it very
difficult for the government to intercede in the conflict. "In fact, not even been a formal strike communication, but escorts are making use of its right of admission to deny entry to, well, you know. So no one can negotiate "
This was posted to give you a break from scandal and the vile politics of Stephen Harper.
If that were happening in Canada, the Conservative gov. would legislate them back to bed.
ReplyDeleteEither that, Sassy, or go biblical on them and set them up for public stonings...except, of course, for the ones they'd reserve for themselves.
ReplyDeleteN.
Grab 'em by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow . . .
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of the sixties and the resistance to the Vietnam War when women like Joan Baez said to say no to guys who would go to Vietnam.
ReplyDeleteOf course the guys who went to Vietnam just exploited the Vietnamese women.
Someone playing up the Lysistrata gambit.
ReplyDeleteThe commentors seem to feel this is a hoax story as they can't find coverage of it anywhere else, but doesn't it play sweetly to the fears of powerful men and the heart of arguments about both unions *and* legalizing sex workers.
