Banks get away with "murder" (eg. in eastern europe, western europe). The conspire to make debts thru "Bad" risk management and then get put back on their feet by all the governments of the world and in some cases the international monetary lending institutions IMF / Worldbank / european development bank, etc. They have a major cushion in all aspects; money is king yet money is the root of all evil; literally now.
Mistake mistake, why didn´t they mistake some 10´s of thousands of crowns to each of the kids accounts?? Why can´t they do that now as a token of apology and to the parents too? This "suggestion" promotes promiscuity and normalizes as well as highers the annies of sexualization of the society!
Call me sometimetoquestion and say my name again!
Well this incident clearly goes to show no matter how one wants to look at it and confirms that the banks are a major frontier for the already in place "occult commerce" .
Holocaust is not something that was it is something that is happening everyday!
MInd us all that the banks cannot be indicted for this and I do not think any public prosecuter is even going to move a hair on their head about this issue. It will be "bagatelliserad" and the already "astray" youth will have gotten some more help along the way.
A very bad joke this is.

im impressed how you can relate that to the holocaust. get a life.
I am kinda proactive and have gotten a life that I very opinionated made the earlier letter; my "newfound" lifes principles. You must be one of the "fhew" mankind always at hand to rationalize away attention from and critic of the "giant" companies "ansvarsfrihet" responsability pushing away attitude.
Comment: inadvertently - without knowledge or intention; "he unwittingly deleted the references" unknowingly, unwittingly advertently, heedfully, mindfully - in a careful deliberate manner Goes to show that their expertise in the banks is not up to any acceptable standard. Consideing their main competence area they fail and place blame on ....... I cannot remember what / who and now again in their very vital growth area of internetbanking for the youth. Blessup

reference:
The Holocaust (from the Greek ὁλόκαυστον (Holókauston): holos, "whole" and kaustos, "burnt"
Now many were gased to death in the more accredited form of use of the word........ right? However above definition could be extrapolated easily to describe mental and or spiritual burning if we wish. And the holocaust is a refferal to an offering being made too! So........ ......... whats the point with words if they just cause pain and increase ignorance and cause confusion within and without.
Swedbank was just practicing what is being preached.
That is..if we have any such innocents left out in society.
Reminds me of Bart Simpson. Even though he is animated he get his message well accross that the consequences whatever they may be are worth it and in many cases can be fun. The banks do not seem to have any consequence analysis at any level or in any department and many employees are junkies no matter how tidy and smart they may look- we personally think it is just a cover for the rubbish beneath. This rubbish expose itself every now and then.

Behaviour change must be endorsed weather we like it or not since senabilities last drops about to drop out of society.

And sweden is unfortunatly very vocal internationally especially concluding the EU presidency and all tht stands for. What did they actually achieve during their tenure?
The climate change action plan is good and well meaning but the reference as to what clmate encompasses or ought to enlighten is not the social climate and garbage spewing out all in the name of business and domesticating the citizenry.
It is good business for some industries however for a good percentage of the holocausted souls a catapaulting away from redemption is the case.

A whole set of worthlessness and by some order have and continue to steal the show of science and technology witht he nobel prize. Imagine a peace prize from the land of fornication. I just wonder what means to peace are to be accenuated. paedophilia or fornication. They are then allowed to to adopt kids from allover the world and corrupt the "innocent" kids to a lower form of life!
This must be as bad a system without morals as no democrazy; guess it is to be understood as one and the same thing? I am fishing here.
Anyone intrested in more of these perspectives? A formal complaint could be timely since we already are victimised and marginalized as everyday parents and citizens of sweden; afreeswedes kinda people.
