Barclays will always put profit before people as long as its shareholders demand bigger and bigger profits each your. This is the inevitable result of unhindered free market capitalism. It is up to each one of us to raise our voice and use our skills to create alternative communities and societies that subvert, destroy and render useless a world where war is an economic necessity. Inaction is complicity. See you on the streets.
